Snow Fun

Today Matt and I decided to build a snowman since the snow was melting and it was super packy!
Here's Matt rolling the bottom part of the snowman. Look at his face...must be heavy!

Now time for the middle part of the snowman

Next comes the head and smoothing out the whole thing. I learned today that my husband is a "professional" snowman smoother outer :)

Here we are putting on the final details...and building a pet for our snowman...a snow dog!

Aren't they cute?!
What a fun time in the snow :) Time for some hot chocolate!!!

Eventful day at church!

On Sunday, our church talked about physical fitness and how you need to be physically fit so that you are healthy and able to do what God has planned for you. It also goes along with being spiritually fit as well.

Matt was in a skit at the beginning of the experience to start of the message about being fit ("experience" is what we call our church service) He is the one dressed up as a twinkie :) It's really funny!! Just click on the link below to watch the 5 minute skit:

"Food for Thought" Skit



At the end of the experience, the River Rock kids (kindergarten-5th grade) got to come up on stage and sing "Every Move I Make." Since I volunteer with River Rock, I also got to go on stage with the kids. Remember, we were talking about physical fitness so all the kids got to wear sweatbands! (They were super cute!) In the video, I am on the far left of the screen in a red shirt and blue sweatband. Click on the link below to watch us sing and dance to the song on stage:

"Every Move I Make"


**** I just realized that these links don't work unless you sign into facebook. I can't find a way to make the videos on facebook public like you can do with the pictures. Anyone know how? Sorry to those of you who don't have facebook...it's the only place the videos would upload****

Daily adventures in the first year of marriage :)

We accidentally had a candle overflow and the wax dripped through a crack in the table and onto our carpet...YES, the CARPET! How do you get wax out of carpet you ask? Use an iron and a paper bag and/or towel!

I didn't get a before picture because I didn't think about it...but trust me, there was A LOT of wax on our carpet!

Here is Matt using a washcloth after already soaking up some wax with a paper bag.


Back to the paper bags...they worked the best!

This is after cleaning it up...you can hardly see where the wax was!


Meanwhile, I was acting all wife like and I actually cooked dinner! Here is proof :) I made tuna casserole

New Haircut/ Random Pics

I got a haircut on Friday...and it was cut a LOT shorter than I wanted it...but Matt likes it, so that's all that matters I guess :) We decided to take some random pics tonight, so here are 2 of them.

We are both very busy with work and volunteering at church, but we are doing well. Life is good and we are just kinda waiting to see what happens in the next few months as to whether I will get a teaching job or not.
