no news is good news???

It is summer time, and Courtney and Will are working hard. No school means lots more free time, and no BYU honor code, so Will has chosen to try out some previously forbidden styles.

Will has started working at Chrysalis, where he watches three teenage boys that require supervision. He works three graveyard shifts each week, (midnight- 9 am) and he can't sleep, so to stay awake he watches tons of movies and plays video games on the TV at the Chrysalis house.

Courtney still makes missionary name tags and just finished the mission president blitz. About 300 new mission presidents were called this summer and they all needed 4 name tags (and their wives, children, dogs, hamsters... all needed 4 as well). So when they all got finished for the mission president seminar in Provo, we celebrated by getting blizzards from Dairy Queen.

With little time left in Provo before the move to Washington, we are trying to get the last amounts of fun out of Utah that we can. We're not sure exactly what that will be, but when we find out we'll post it up here.

any colour you like

For our memorial day holiday Courtney and I went to Color Me Mine for the first time. For those of you who have never heard of the place, it is a little shop that has a wide variety of blank ceramic dishes and trinkets that you can come and paint however you like, then leave it there and the shop will glaze and fire the pieces for you and you pick it up a few days later.
I wasn't sure how much I would like it, but it was actually quite fun, and the prices were reasonable, the largest cost is the piece that you choose to paint, larger pieces cost more money, but there are some nice things that can be painted.
In short, it was a fun activity, and I would recommend it to people who are living around Provo if they have never had a chance to go there., and of course there are some pictures. We painted some soup mugs. Courtney painted the purple mug with frogs, and I did the swirly colored one.

EWU!!

I was accepted to Eastern Washington University Graduate Program for Social Work. This was something I thought would not happen this year. I had just about resigned myself to staying in Provo for another year, but now we will be out by September for class at EWU

Time to end the drought

My last post was in January of this year, and it has been a busy school semester, but now it is finished. I passed with respectable marks and am able to finally hang my hat on BYU. The Keelers and the Andersons came down for the celebration and Courtney and I had a very busy weekend keeping up with all the eating and sightseeing. For now we will be hanging out in Provo for at least another year working, but we have both sworn that we will leave Utah.
