Memorial Day Weekend

We had such a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend! Andrew's parents came up on Friday and stayed until Monday evening. We loved spending time with them and showing them where we live. On Friday evening we went and saw Indiana Jones, then went out to eat. On Saturday, we went hiking at Whitewater State park and had a picnic. We then drove around and toured Rochester for a bit. That evening we had a BBQ and came home and played SCRABBLE! We love that game! On Sunday, after church, we drove up to Stillwater, MN and saw a crazy storm! There was a tornado only 15 min. away from us! We just walked around Stillwater and relaxed that evening (and played Scrabble again). Monday, we walked around some more and shopped in the cute antique and artsy stores in downtown Stillwater. We then went to the Mall of America where we saw Iron Man, ate and shopped. We loved having Andrew's parents with us for the weekend and wish they could stay longer! They are so wonderful and carry such a great spirit with them. It felt so great to be around them. All in all we had a very a enjoyable, fun-filled weekend. Thanks you guys!!!

Interesting

I forgot about this picture and just remembered it today. The photographer told Andrew's parents and Me and Andrew to kiss for the picture, so we did. We had no idea that we had the exact same kissing style though. Weird. My hand would even be in the same position as Kathy's if it weren't for my flowers.

Friend's art

Our friend has a website where she is selling some of her beautiful artwork. Her art and her descriptions about each piece are beautiful! Go to http://amypectol.com/ and click on "Products Page" in the top, right hand corner. She is also offering 50% off now through Mother's Day.

Fun

I was looking at some old pictures we have saved on our computer and I found this video of us when we were in the "I like you but I'm not ready to tell you yet" stage. :) It's fun. :) You can totally tell that we were crushing. ;) We were making banana pancakes and listening to music ( don't worry, we listened to "Banana Pancakes" from Jack Johnson too ) and we started face painting with the batter. :)

Boundry Waters

Andrew and I are planning a trip to the Boundry waters in May and we are stoked! We went to a person's house in our ward and he showed us a bunch of maps, showed us where to go, told us what kind of fishing equipment to get, gave us some suggestions about what to pack and everything. He's even letting us borrow one of his canoes! We are very grateful and very excited!

Also...

I saw this nursery on someone else's blog. It is her grandaughter's nursery and I think it is SO cute. The grandmother painted the tree herself. I would like to replicate it someday, only in different colors because I will probably have just one nursery for all my babies, both boys and girls. :)

Bored

So I am getting really bored with our blog. I don't update it enough and I get ancy when other people don't update theirs. I check like everyone's every day because I am pretty obsessive compulsive. But yeah, I keep forgetting to take pictures of stuff we do so I am just going to post random things until we remember to start taking pictures and posting them. :) Here is a picture of some summery dress shoes I am hoping to buy sometime soon. There a bunch of skirts that I don't wear because I don't have shoes that will look good with them so I am hoping to get these so I can wear my summery church clothes. :) I've pretty much worn out my black tights and skirt this winter. :) If they don't show up for some reason, click here.
