Our computer has not been working real well for the past few weeks so we have not been able to post anything. So I will give a recap. Last week we went up Great Falls MT to play a football game. I forgot the camera so this picture will have to do. I was told that I always need to have a picture because if I didn't it would be like eating pancakes w/o syrup. Now we cant have that so there you go. It was a horrible trip up there. Britany takes quite a long time to get ready. So we were out the door about 8 hour latter than we should have been. Then I don't know if anyone has ever been to Great Falls who is reading this but, there is absolutely nothing GREAT about it! We could not find a single thing to do the whole day we were there, it was ugly and cold. At the game that night it was well below zero, 10in of snow, and we were playing in very strong wind. Now that alone sucked but then we went into 4 overtimes! After the game I had a little frost bit on my hands and feet. But two other guys had to go to the hospital because theirs was so bad. One of them said he has tingling feeling in his hands now. I guess that's good. OK after the 3rd overtime it was obvious we were not going to drive 6 hours (if it had been good weather) home. So we got another hotel. The next day we drove home and went 35-40mph most of the way. It took us all day, and a few time during the trip I had to knock off the ice under the 4-runner because we were bottoming out. We even have a lift on that thing and it didn't help. But the more ice that we knocked off the better gas mileage we got! Other than that, class started this week. This semester is not going to be fun. In all of my classes I had to buy the textbook, and the worst part about it is they actually expect me to read them. I have a chapter test on every chapter and in every class. So there you go. That has been our life in the last week.Thursday, April 24, 2008

Geez you finally tell me that he is semi ok. I was pretty worried.
Hey! Some of us women take longer so that you men can have everything! ;)
I can tell you something great about Great Falls....I was born there:) Actually, in the summer when it is pretty there is a lot to do outdoors. But really, you live in Rexburg......not exactly pretty or exciting in the winter either!
That is pretty great Steph. I don't understand Holly's comment . . .
Luv the pic!!
Oh man...that is a sucky trip. I gotta say I do not miss spending hundreds on text books...good luck!
