Rabble! Rabble! Rabble!

Not a whole lot going on this week.

I went to Frightmares for Elise's birthday.  It was tons of fun!  I got her a Sweet 16 crown and matching sash to wear.  It was awesome!  16 is a big deal!!  Yay Elise!  I didn't do any of the haunted walk-throughs though.  Sad, huh?  The lines were pretty long.  Oh yeah, and I don't like to be scared. :)

The first pre-season Jazz game was last Thursday.  I was so excited!  It felt like it had been forever since I'd seen my boys play.  They did well.  It's pre-season, so it doesn't really matter, but... whatever.  I still had fun.  The people who have sat next to us the past 2 seasons, still sit next to us so that's pretty awesome too!

I told Lance that I want courtisde seats for Christmas.  So when we saw them on KSL for $750 we got super excited... until we realized that iwas $750 each, and not $750 for the pair... and that's for a pre-season game.  Regular season could be twice that much.  Lame.  Sounds life if I am ever going to sit there, we need to do a whole lotta saving.

I guess that's enough rambling.  Happy Tuesday!

Hike to the Y

Lance had "Hike to the Y" on his bucket list, so since it's free and 5 mins from our house we decided to go for it!

I've hiked to the Y two times before in my life.  Once when I was 11, and once when I was 14.  Both times, it didn't seem hard.  This time, it was hard.  I struggled so bad.  It's because I'm incredibly out of shape.  Oh and I had a cold/cough at the time, so that prolly didn't help anything.

We took Bentley with us.  She loved it!  Cute little thing.  I love her.

I wanted to include pictures with this post, but of course they are somewhere far far away (like at home...and I'm at work).

We started on the trail at about 6:30pm and got to the Y at 7:30pm, just as the sun was setting.  It was gorgeous!  I made the comment to Lance that "We drive for 6 hours to see Vegas lights... but we could just walk for one hour and see this every day!"  Silly, huh?  It's like a valley of fire.  Millions of glittering lights stretched across the valley floor.  To the north you can see the Provo temple, which isn't one of the prettiest, but hey, it's cool!  At one point during the sunset, Utah Lake turned all orange and glowy.  It looked rad!  Makes me wonder what's in that lake, exactly?  Haha, just kidding.

Interrupting our awe and the beautimous site, was a tarantula.  Yes, a tarantula.  It was HUGE, HAIRY, and slowly crawling towards us.  We got a couple pics.  EEEEAAK!  I'm all creeped out thinking about it.

Going back down was pitch black.  We should have brought a flash light.  It was so dark!  But the walk down was simple, and took about 15 minutes.

My legs were NOT sore the next day, or the day after that, or at all really.  Strange, huh?

Notes for next time: bug spray, more water, flashlight.

Letter From a Missionary - 2 & 3

Hey Jennjo,

How are you doing? I miss hanging out with you. I´ve been praying so that you and Lance have a baby so I can be an uncle. :) So I believe you have some work to do.:) just kidding. Do what you want. You`re awesome. I miss you.

Love Elder Keele


Hey Jenn,

It´s cool, you should have a baby. I´ve thought about it and I don´t want to watch. :) thats just gross. I just want to be an uncle. You should plan it out so it´s born right when I get home. Plus August babies are cool.
I´m sorry about bentley, I hope things go ok.
Sounds like you and lance are still partying. A nissan titan? thats cool. Did you sell your other car?
I´m sorry about the evil stuff that happened to you. Just remember you have power. You can leave or do whatever you need to do and God will help you. It´s really cool being out here. It´s weird because the sisters here are your age.
Do you remember Mrs. Porter in Santaquin? Her daughter is here. It´s really weird, Because you could be serving at the same time as me. But be greatful you aren´t... The sisters are interesting. Thats as far as i´ll go with that.But, the church is true.

I love you,
Elder Keele
