This week has been a really fun week. Crazy, but fun. Erin was here visiting so of course we had to give her the california experience. Mon wes FHE so we went and played steal the flag at a park and then we went and watched Transformers till 1 AM (which by the way is a pretty good movie). Tues, we went to go see the midnight showing of Harry Potter. We got there at 8 PM and there was already a huge line around the theatre. We were lucky though and we had people there already waiting in line so we got in line and waited for 4 hours until the movie started. It was a great movie but it probably would have been better if I had gone to see it at a reasonable hour. I didn't really want to go see the midnight showing but erin and the rest of my cali gang was going to see it that time so I figured I'd tag along. Wen, we went up to do a service project for the young womens of our stake. They were at yw camp and the leaders got a whole bunch of singles to do a "hold to the rod" thing. It was way cool. There was a whole bunch of scenes that were supposed to show what worldly things were like and we were supposed to tempt the girls to come off of the rod. It was actually fun. I was in the great and spacious building scene. Before that scene though, me and a few other singles were supposed to go and as the girls were going through a tunnel, they would see and hear our silloettes (sp?) mocking and making fun of them and then we'd run up to this building where there was loud music and party lights all around it. It was quite realistic. There was a whole bunch of singles (myself included) "partying". We had the IBC root beer bottles and rolled up peices of paper that looked like weed and we kept trying to pull the girls off the rod. We didn't succeed but we tried. It was really fun. On Thurs, as you can see from the pics, we went to the beach. We built sand castles, buried Jed, played in the water, and built a fire so we could make smores on the beach. It was awesome! Fri, we went and danced like there was no tomorrow at one of the dances that they have every week. Sat, although I have no pictures to prove it, we went to Six Flags. I decided not to take my camera along as last time I took my camera there, it fell to it's doom. But we went on a whole bunch of crazy rides! It's 10 times better lagoon. The only reason it's not more so is because the lines were huge! For the first part of the day, every line that we waited in was about an hour and a half to two hours long. But we had a lot of fun. Anyways, those are my adventures of last week. Thought you'd all be interested :-) Oh and by the way, Cambrie put a new video of Keira up on youtube. Go check it out, it's really cute. It's the one entitled Kiera eating Yellow Death. Ciao family!

Lots of fun happening around here. Kiera going through daddy-withdrawls after steve had to start school again. Poor little lady. Kiera has started trying to draw pictures of people now (see photo above). Kiera has officially mastered the VCR. She knows how to work it and what all of the buttons do. (I'll bet there are some 70 year olds who don't know as much as she does at age 2). Lydia has been enjoying a few firsts lately. We gave her rice cereal last night for the first time which she was apparently more than ready for (see video), we've put her in a doorway jumper which she likes although she hasn't figured out the jumping part yet. Oh, and for those of you who have been to NM lately, you'll appriciate this: Steve and I plan on applying to a government program that is somewhat like the military in that they pay for your schooling; but instead of steve being in a branch of the military, he will owe the government years of his life serving in one of th...
