We love free stuff.

Nathan called this evening at precisely 6:11pm saying "So I'm riding past Porter Park, and there's a big party going on. It's for Beehive Credit Union. Want to go?" He gets home and showers real fast since he was smelly from frisbee, and we hop on our bikes and ride down to the park. Sure enough, Beehive Credit Union is having a block party....

Then I saw a car speeding down the road, not slowing down for these cute ducks. I looked at the ducks, looked at the car, back to the ducks, back to the car. Both were still moving. So, I rode my bike into the middle of...

Round Things

Two of Nathans favorite things are round. Pizza and frisbee. We had them both Friday night. Nathan had a frisbee game at 8pm. Who schedules a game at 8pm on a Friday? I don't know. But it was a lot of fun to get to watch him do something he loves. Unluckily, it was also pouring rain. Yet, as the wonderful wife that I am, I sat. I had brought...

Bill Cosby & Broken Toes

Mr. Cosby came to BYU-I & tickets were only $15 Basically it was hilarious. And that's really all there is to it. I won't go into detail about his show, because it wouldn't do it justice. And what is NOT hilarious is what happened before this lovely show. SO, I was walking to the kitchen to continue making dinner before Nathan...
