August Happenings

Chas and Kylee stopped by on their way to teach in China for the semester. While they were here, we made a visit to the aquarium.
This is a picture of Michael and I watching the feeding of the penguins

 We also tried to play a lot of games while they were here. Here's a cute picture of a niece.

Awhile back we found an old film camera of Michael's. We've slowly have been taking pictures with it. One weekend my Mom and Dad, James' family, and Michael and I went to Mt. Pleasant to the Wilde Cabin down there, were we watched movies, ate food, played some games, and visited family graves. I tried out my new dutch oven. We took most of the pictures with the old camera. We are still not done with the roll (we're on picture 23). But I snatched one of this view with my phone.

 While at the cabin I made a goal of finishing knitting this blanket and reading a book. I met both my goals. (Side note this blanket only took me 2 years.)

 I babysat these little wretched rats. We had a lot of fun.

 Who knew that sharpening pencils could be so much fun.


Michael and I went to the West Ball that James and Charity put on. I didn't take any pictures because it's hard to take pictures while your having fun dancing. But here's a video of some of the more experienced dancers showing how to do the dance.

My mom and dad bought a house here in Utah, so we'll get them half the year! We had Sunday dinner there.
