8 Things...

I saw this on my friend Crystal's blog, and even though she didn't tag me, I thought it looked like fun. So here goes, and please note that these are not necessarily in any particular order.

8 Things I did yesterday:
1. Woke up at 4:30 AM to coach high school cheerleading practice from 5:30-7 am.
2. Went to work, where I couldn't actually get any work done because the computers had been disconnected from the printers when they installed Microsoft Office on them the day before.
3. Applied for a burn permit at the Fire Dept so that the Cub scouts could build a campfire and cook their lunch.
4. Spent the afternoon with my boyfriend on his day off. We went grocery shopping, which by the way, is a great way to learn more about someone. Then we had lunch and watched a movie.
5. Visiting teaching. Love my visiting teachers!
6. Went to Starlight Theatre with my sister, brother and friend Shannon. We saw the first half of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and then opted to skip Act 2.
7. Enjoyed a Raspberry & Hot Fudge Pothole at Sheridan's with my brother, while we talked about life and relationships.

Family Reunion: Nauvoo

Here are a couple of pictures of our family reunion in Nauvoo. Not everyone was able to make it, but it was great to see everyone who was there. The best parts of the reunion were the meals we ate together, the temple sessions, late night card games, and watching the pageant with my boyfriend who got off work and drove all the way up there just to see me! Can't wait for the next reunion in Washington 2011...
