FHE treat



Combination of snow, vanilla, sugar, and milk =

FHE treat


The lesson was about the priesthood and the treat said to let the priesthood holder in the family pick his favorite treat, so since we just had such a big snow storm, he decided to do snow ice cream. It's actually really good.

2nd round

Interviews for the Resident Assistant job have gone under way. Nate has his first one last Saturday and it went really well. He couldn't have asked for better people to interview him.

This afternoon is his second interview which could be interesting. It's a group interview to see how you interact with people and different things like that. It is suppose to last for 2 hours and then we will know for sure before or around the time of spring break if he gets the job. I hope all goes well and also that our other friend who is applying as well will get the job too so that we are both in the same complex working together.

Keep your fingers crossed!!

Go Cougars!



Last week was the last game of the regular season for my brother's basketball team. We randomly decided that we were going to go down for Saturday and Sunday so that we could go see him play. They played Alchesay and we totally won! It was such an exciting game. Of course, we sat by the pep band and I took a bunch of pictures and the best part was that we got to see a bunch of our family. I could not believe how many people from Alchesay came to watch. I thnk there was more of them than Show Low fans. We were all happy with the end result. That game was also a personal best for my brother. He scored 16 points and had a gazillion rebounds. We were really proud of him. He is so awesome. The team played the first game of regionals and lost so the season is definately over now sadly. Here are some of my awesome pictures though. Good season Dallin!



I love this guy!

Wii Music



Yes, I did it. I broke down tonight and decided to go and buy Wii Music. Nate is such the musician in the family and he is loving it. There is all kinds of fun stuff you can do. I highly recommend the game to anyone with kids. Here is us giving a try at conducting an orchestra. Like I said, Nate loves it.

An intense game that didn't end the way we wanted it to


Priceless memories

Nate's weekend job

About a week ago, Nate got a call from his old high school band director, who he has kept in contact with over the years, and he called to ask Nate if he wanted to do judge the low brass for the region honor band auditions in Holbrook. Of course Nate said yes! He was so excited to do this. It is going to look really good on his resume too.
So, throughout the week, Nate was looking at the songs that they would be playing for him and trying to decide what to wear and then he also had to pick which scales to have them play and he also had to come up with sightreading music for them. He was up almost all night on Friday trying to do that.
On Saturday morning, he woke up at 4:30 in the morning and drove to Holbrook. I tried to convince him to go to Show Low the night before and stay there but he was stubborn and decided he would rather drive early in the morning instead. He judged all morning and then came home all exhausted. He had alot of fun and hopes that he can do it again.

Fingers Crossed!

Nate turned in his application to be an RA next semester.

It would be a really great job and the chances of him getting it are pretty good.

Everyone keep your fingers crossed. We will know for sure in March!!!

Sightseeing

On MLK day, I didn't have to work and our friends Amber and Joe invited us to go to Montezuma Castle and Well with them for the day. We left at like 10 in the morning and got back around 3. It was alot of fun and I totally didn't even know what to expect. Thanks Amber and Joe for inviting us.












Other than that adventure, we don't really have much else going on. Nate is just taking classes and I am just working. The only exciting thing about my job is that I am training a new person to be my supervisor. He is catching on ok but since I am the only one that knows how to do alot of the stuff, it has been so stressful. I don't even know why I am on the computer right now, since I have been staring at it all day non stop. We are happy though and enjoying the little snow we have gotten.
