Roomie Reunion!

As I posted earlier, it's been ten years since I graduated from high school, and that means it's also been about ten years since my freshman year at BYU. That was such a fun year! I moved down with my good friends Camille & Katie, and Katie brought along Caroline who she knew from junior high. When we moved into the dorms we didn't know the other two girls, Debi & Ashley, that we were placed with. But it worked out so well! We all got along great and our friendship has only gotten closer over these ten years. I love these girls!

Then over the course of four years at BYU we added and lost other roommates. Not all of them are pictured below (we're missing Jen, Danelle, Laura, Celeste, & Shannon). But added to the photo below are our other really close roommates, Janelle & Emily. I'm so blessed to know all these sweet girls. We still get together almost monthly. Love you guys!

And aren't those 4 little prego's next to me cute? One of them's already popped since this photo two weeks ago! Glad you're doing well, Emily!

Indoor Camping

At the beginning of the summer we had a Family Campout planned with my brothers & sisters and their cute kids. However, the weekend we had the campground scheduled, it poured and POURED! So, rather than miss out on the fun and cancel the campout, we just moved locations . . . to my sister Sharlene's home. The parents still set up the tents in the basement, we cooked our tin-foil dinners in the oven, and set up a portable fire-pit on the back patio and roasted giant marshmallows just feet away from the rain. We had such a fun and dry time!

A Late Night At Our House

Okay, so here's a little peak into a late night at our house. This is definitely past rational-thinking-hour. We just created these two masterful lip-syncs. It's the first time we've ever done this...and we had NO intention of posting it. But hey, it's still a little late and we're feeling crazy. We might live to regret it very soon. So...the first video is one of our favorite road-tripping songs, "Mockingbird," performed by James Taylor & Carly Simon. And the second video is "Joyful, Joyful" from "Sister Act 2." We recorded "Joyful, Joyful" first, and it's really, REALLY rough!! But, I guess it just shows how impromptu this all was! :) So, enjoy! Oh, I need to go to bed!

**You've got to get to (or skip to) about the 2 minute mark of the first video to see Mikey really shine! :D Let us know what you think!
