First. Andrew and I have been eating a lot of veggies and found a great recipe for a "tortilla". It's suppose to be for vegetarians but it's much better with bacon.
We did a lot of snowboarding this past season. It's very apparent when it's the end of the season though.
I couldn't be happier that I married someone who is as willing as I am to get up at 5:00 AM to be the first one on the slopes.
Amy's babyshower. I usually don't go to babyshowers because frankly I don't need to hear another birthing story. But Amy's a great individual so I made an exception.
Kristen and Chuan are 2 other exceptions.
Ping dragged this balloon around all night after the party.
Andrew and I helped out with the ward easter celebration. Andrew was the sports announcer for the duck race. He made it quite exciting.
This is Lala. She was determined there were eggs to be found even after the hunt had ended.
I don't like surprises but Zach and Alicia came over the week of my birthday for FHE with a great one.
Smitty's for my birthday dinner with Andrew, Kristen, Mike, James and Roz.
Babyshower for Tawni. So Suzy and I were talking about how our friend, Stephanie who moved to Arizona 1.5 years ago is sorely missed and we can't wait till she comes back. And then she walked into the backyard. So weird, but awesome!
Aw youth conference. An experience. Here are some highlights-Andrew bringing me a bucket full of cold, salty sea water for my bee stung foot. Bee stings are more painful then previsously expected.
Katie, boisterous enough for the whole group. Here is her award-winning Jesus sculpture.
Recovery.
3rd of July hike with Sarah. Real forest!
And real wildlife. I'm not sure we resolved what this animal is. It looks beaver-ish.
Children's Parade in Centerville, Ut
Most exciting of all...our trip to see Conan O'Brien! Here we are travelling to see the Commander of Pale Force.
We took a bus to Union station and then the red line. One minute Andrew and I were the only ones there and the next a flood of people came running down.
There was cool architecture and art at the Universal City stop.
So this is a great story-Neither Andrew or I had had any real food besides breakfast that day. We got out of the taping at 6:30PM and were starving. The bus we were taking home just happens to stop right across the street from Chanos. The only problem was that we didn't have enough money to get off and then get back on the bus (after eating). As I was desperately digging through my wallet for spare change and while getting on the bus, the bus driver told us the ride was free! He didn't have a gadget to insert cash fares..only the "tap pass". Woohoo! So we went to Chanos.
The end!

If you were hiking at high altitude, the anmal is probably a marmot. And, you were probably just a few blocks from where I grew up when you went to the Centerville parade. I'd love the "tortilla" recipe (with bacon.)
What a fun post!! And how fun that I'm ( a little) a part of it!! Thanks for loving my Lala and her determination. The hunt and the duck races were fun, huh?
Happy Birthday, again, it looks like Smitty's was fun, the picture is sooooo pretty! And how nice that the Evans brought you such a pretty cake!!
Wasn't that soooooooo cool that we saw Steph? It was also REALLY fun getting to know you better on the ride home from the shower.
Let's see . . . what else did I want to say? Oh yeah, I went on my mission to Spain and had my first tortilla on my first day there. I learned to make them pretty well. YUM, huh?? I love 'em! I'm glad you like them too!
Okay, I've never tried Chano's but just the other day drove by it and thought I really need to!! It looks awesome!! Do you like to eat at Olvera St.?
You have to tell me all about Conan!! I LOVE him!!
Oh yeah, and I LOVED the MJ Memorial too. I LOVED Stevie Wonder's part, got chills, and cried. I've been TOTALLY OBSESSED with MJ and need to calm down a bit. He was soooooooo talented yet so troubled. I'll love him for all his wonderful music forever.
Thanks for a great post!! Love, Suzy
PS-- my cousins are from Centerville!
Whoa, all these Centerville connections... Crazy. I grew up mostly in the Centerville 1st ward in the Centerville South stake, went to CJH and Viewmont, and so on. B is really a champ when it comes to posting; she hasn't let facebook kill her productivity in the same way its killed mine.
