Scripture cookies!

My new ward is pretty neat. The relief society does a lot more stuff than my other ward did! One thing I think is really cool is that they have a blog for recipes. They post all kinds of recipes for us to try. One of them was scripture cookies. I think this would be a great activity for family home evening with kids! You guys all should try it and let me know how they turn out! I'll try it sometime soon too.

Enjoy!

Random pictures from Summer Trip

I thought that I should post some more pictures from my expedition this summer! There were a lot of really cool things I did, I wish I could post all my pictures! About a month ago Alex saw Havasaupi Canyon on the news. Havasaupi Canyon is an Indian reservation at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. My expedition group had hiked the ten or so miles to the base of this canyon and camped for a few days. Just one month after our visit, a large dam upstream broke and flooded the entire canyon. Almost 40 people had to be air lifted from the canyon one at a time in the middle of the night. Many of the indians in the Havasaupi tribe also had to be airlifted out. I feel so lucky that the dam didn't break while we were there! You can view some pictures from my trip to Havasaupi in my post from June 22.

Our new Apartment!!

Here are some pictures of our new apartment. We lost the awesome view we had of the mountains, and we are much further away from campus... BUT the place is a two bedroom and comes with a washer and dryer and big pantry! I can't believe that I could be excited to have a washer and dryer in the apartment.... I'm growing up so fast! ha. Oh and this place also has a bar at the counter so we don't have to eat on the floor or on the couch anymore! We haven't been able to get bar stools to put there yet, but we will soon.
