Memories…

I decided to join in on the fun happening over at The Life and Times of the Wassom Clan and begin a memory game. Although I know few people actually check this blog it is always fun to reminisce. Anyway the rules are quite simple; respond in the comments section regarding a memory of you and I together and if you are up to the challenge repost this same game in your blog for me to respond…

Hyde Park Celebration…

I am playing catch up and one of the activities that we recently participated in was the infamous Hyde Park Celebration. I love this more than the Logan fireworks because everyone that I grew up with usually attends and there is free dancing included (check out The3Balls for the dance videos). We had a great time, but I realized how out of shape I was when trying to dance to a few songs in a row. My sister is getting married in a couple of weeks and I hope her shindig in Salt Lake will be as much as fun with all types of music, but what I really hope is that I will have the stamina to go all night…



***UPDATE: Tammie sent me a link to a video of Tiffiney and I dancing at the party and you can check it out HERE

Bear Lake Bash…

Last Monday we finally got the chance to go to Bear Lake. Tiffiney is an amazing person and loves to go outside and experience the world, but often times her husband gets tired and stays in the house doing boring things. However with our new daughter things are a little different. Tiffiney's sister Misty is visiting us for a month and we are trying to make her feel as welcome as possible by giving her a good time. Sometimes it is difficult when we work opposite shifts, but at the request of my wife I got Monday off so we could hang out together. We had a day in the sun and the water was perfectly clear and warm. We bought us a water toy and finally used our life jackets we bought last year; I always plan on going outside by buying things, but I never use them. Tiffiney also packed us our lunch and treats and individually wrapped each made-to-order sandwich with our initials. Although I am hesitant about listening to the demands of my wife, in the end I am thankful I do. I always enjoy the activities we share and look forward to future experiences together…

Sadly the fun ended as soon as we left the beach. Although we used sun tan lotion, apparently it wasn't enough. My back, Misty's legs and even Tiffiney's non-burnable skin received some UV damage. I don't care how water proof the lotion is I am reapplying it everytime I exit the water so I can avoid this happeing again…

Home Sweet Home…

That isn't an actual picture of my house, but after spending one month abroad running from landmark to monument, it is really good to be home. I have decided that one month is about perfect for vacation if the finances allow it; any longer and I probably couldn't walk anymore. I wouldn't mind living in another country for an extended period of time and casually seeing the sites, but rushing from here to there really takes a toll on my body. Anyway now you can all call me again and hang out, cause I know how bad you have missed us…
