Damage Report

Remember that time Erin fell down the stairs in the temple? Here's the one day later... ouch!

I also burnt my hand in an attempt to curl my hair. That didn't feel too great either, but I think Erin still wins for worst injury of the week.

From Sun Kissed to Snow Kissed


So yesterday it was 60° and sunny. I didn't bring my coat with me to class and I went outside without a jacket for the first time in months. Today I woke up to snow EVERYWHERE. It looks like Christmas again and I feel like I should be listening to Christmas music. It hasn't stopped snowing yet, and honestly I'm done with it. Snow was fun the first couple months, but now it's just cold and I'm ready for the sunshine again.


Autumn - you should be impressed with my hair. Just sayin.


Today was a temple trip for the books... we had a friend of Erin's named Nathaniel tag along, and we had a couple mishaps, all of which involve falling. The most exciting(?) was definitely Erin tripping and falling alllllll the way down the stairs down to the baptistery. Like 5 temple workers come rushing out to see what the disturbance is and it was just Erin gracing the stairs with her presence. Her poor leg is all bruised up now. Rough day. On the way back from the temple the sidewalks were all covered in ice from the snow and freeze, Erin and I were really struggling. We fell a couple times. Bless Gideon and his miraculous invincibility to snow, cold, and slipping on ice. He steadied us more than once.

TRC at the MTC

The last two weeks Cris and I have been going to the MTC Tuesday mornings to help with the missionaries who are learning English. It's a lot of fun, so far we've had Elders from Chile, Mongolia, Ukraine, and South Korea! We've had Sisters from Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, Thailand, and Japan.
Cris and I finally got ourselves together and took pictures with the missionaries this week. We don't have any with the Elder from Mongolia or the Sisters from last week, but we got some this week! (Tbh I don't know what TRC stands for)
Week 1

Week 2

Elders Auh and Elder Korvenik (South Korea&Ukraine going to Australia&Salt Lake City)

The Sisters (Taiwan and Japan going to Seattle and Australia)

Found one of our Elders from last week - from Chile going to Nampa, Idaho

BYU Basketball

Yesterday I went to the BYU vs. San Diego game with Kavan. Chase says that Kavan is a good influence on me, making me go to more sporting events. There's one more home game this Saturday, but since Kavan will be out of town he wanted to make sure he got to go to one last home game for this season. The next major sport is baseball, and I'm personally super excited for that one. I really like going to baseball games, at least I liked the Rays games that I went to back in Tampa. Let's go Cougars!
It filled up after we took the photo. We were early. It wasn't an empty game haha

Temples and Trees

This morning I went to the temple with Erin and Gideon. It's finally starting to warm up and we've really been enjoying the nicer weather. It's more sweater weather than coat weather - it's been in the 50's. It's been so nice outside!!




On our way back today we found this cute tree. I fit right underneath it... Gideon not so much. 😂😂


Erin said she was photographing... more like videographing ;)
