Yay!

Thanks to Heather and Jeff, and their buying a new Christmas Tree, we now have one that is bigger than 2 ft tall! Thanks, Heather and Jeff!

Happy Holidays to everyone! I love this time of year (excpet for the icy roads... everyone drive safe!) :)

Hunting Trip October 2010

We went hunting last weekend with Benji's family. Benji had one of 70,000 deer tags and he was one of the lucky (or skilled) hunters that got one!

This is only Benji's 2nd deer, so the small 3-point is pretty impressive!

He shot it from about 120 yards. This photo is a reenactment; when it actually happened, I had to be quiet, so I couldn't get my camera out (but I WAS there when he got it). The red circle is where the deer was bedded down.

I kept joking that I was going to "shoot" a deer too -- with my camera. I did get a few pictures, but not any good ones (besides those of Benji's deer). But I like this sunset (much easier to shoot because it doesn't run so fast!) :-)

Graduation Pictures

Since I'm no good at blogging.... these pictures are from a LONG time ago. But I thought it's better late than never to post pictures! These are from each of our graduations.

Benji graduated in July with his Bachelor's of Science in Psychology.

And Mikkel graduated in December 2009 with a Bachelor's of Musical Arts, Percussion Performance.

I got to play at my Convocation - which was really an honor.

Now we've moved on from the tiny town of Rexburg, to Logan! Benji's started his Master's program in Sport Psychology at Utah State University. We love it!

London and Spain!!!

There's a whole bunch more pictures than these... but here's just some of my favorites. Hopefully later this week I'll get around to posting some more.

In front of Buckingham Palace

I love this shot of Big Ben... :-)

Classic

Anybody guess London Bridge?? I did too... but I guess not.

This is Tower Bridge. London Bridge is just a normal bridge.

Well, it's a pretty cool bridge I guess, but this one is more photogenic.

A shot of Morocco. If you look close enough, you might spot some satellite dishes...

Benji and a camel! (In Morocco)

Benji demonstrating the purpose of the slanty holes on the ramparts of this castle in Ronda.

(to shoot the people coming, while they can't shoot you)

Cool castle in Ronda!

Mikkel pretending to be a bull about to charge into the bullfighting ring.

Benji pretending to be a bull in the bullfighting ring (with Jason as the bullfighter).

to be continued...

3 months later...

Wow, I really need to get better at this blog posting thing...
I don't have any pictures on the computer I'm at right now, so this will just have to be a text update.

Mikkel graduated (YAY!!) in December and is now working for the Salt Lake Express (the shuttle service between Rexburg and Salt Lake) as a reservationist. If you want a friend discount to ride the shuttle, call me!

Benji has 2 more semesters before graduating. It's coming so fast! He's applied to grad school, and we're hoping to find out in April ish where he gets accepted. Our top choice is the U of U. Pray for us!

TTFN
Pictures coming soon!
