Camping update

Our camp out was successful. We never missed a ticket check and slept just fine on our blow up mattress. Ben and I watched Red Eye and everyone quieted down around 1:30am, and we both slept great. We woke up around 7:30 and they had another ticket check at 7:45. This was the last check and then they asked us to clean up all of our camping gear to get ready for the grand opening. We weren't sure what the rules were going to be and how we would get a years worth of yogurt.

This is how it worked. They gave us each 52 coupons for free yogurt, that's free yogurt once a week. The best part is, there is no limit to how high we fill the cup or how many toppings we put in. It's all free! So we now have 104 coupons for yogurt that are good until December 2011. It's a dream come true or Christmas come early!

My kind of camping

I think this is going to be the best camping trip. Right this minute Ben and I are camping. We weren't planning on camping at the intersection of Bulldog and University Ave, but here we are. We were originally going to go in the wilderness in Hobble Creek, but this deal of all deals was music to my ears.
Earth Fruits Yogurt is having their grand opening tomorrow and the first 100 people in-line get FREE yogurt for a year!! If you know me and my love for yogurt, I LOVE IT. They opened their parking lot to anyone who wanted to spend the night. For us, instead of paying money to get a camping spot, we get free yogurt and camping! We brought all our camping gear and made ourselves nice and comfy. I think we have the best set up with our 6 person tent and queen size air mattress. Everyone else is all crammed in, but our huge tent designated our spot. The way they are deciding who gets the free yogurt is that everyone gets a ticket and they do ticket checks randomly through out the night, to make sure you stay here. The people who were first in line have a lower ticket #. I'm #16, and I'll here all night so bring on the ticket checks! When the doors open at 10 am, I'll be one HAPPY CAMPER!!




Our HUGE blue tent is the biggest out of everyone's!

I'll let you know if I actually get any sleep and when I'm one year richer in yogurt!

Glad I'm not the Mazda

I've been meaning to blog about my internship and update you on how much I've learned and grown since I've finished, yes FINISHED my clinical experience in the hospital (10 weeks). But this bump happened.

Magic Eye?



Or.....my rear window?



Ouch!! That's my poor car. I recently got rear ended (2 months ago) and had to have a paint touch up on my bumper, that was a waste. This is going to take a bit more.

Hey on the bright side I'll be getting a new key hole on my trunk which someone unsuccessfully tried to break into 2 years ago. And I'm ok!! I'd like to thank the inventor of the seat belt at this time as well. I had a little bit of whip lash and a lot of wanting Ben to hurry and save me. The crazy thing is I saw the car coming at me and knew they were going to hit me. Once they hit me I could hear the glass crackling and breaking, but it never fell in completely. I kinda want to break the window myself before it goes to the collision repair shop, but that may be dangerous.
There she goes on the tow truck. Ben came and rescued me 20 minutes after it happened. Good thing I have a bike!

Friday the 13th, Welcomes HOME....


.....Elder Matsuura

Ben and I were able to leave work/internship early to be at the Idaho Falls airport. The drive from Ogden makes the trip to Idaho seem short.


As we were driving to the airport we saw a plane in the sky and knew it was Chet's plane. My mom was telling my dad to drive faster. No worries though Friday the 13th didn't get us down. We rolled out the big banner and had 5 minutes to spare before Chet walked down the stairs. I was expecting a kimchi smelling brother, but he smelt normal. I thought he'd be a little awkward but he wasn't. He did manage to bring frozen kimchi in his bags though.

And the moment I have been waiting for.....

They meet!! I think it went well.
(Ben's smiling, I don't know what Chet's face looks like, I need to get the picture from the other side to find out)

As I watched Chet and talked with him he laughed and joked around with people as he always did. Ben's mom asked me if Chet left a boy and came back a man? Yes, Chet you are now a MAN! Ha but he's still working on his beard.


Welcome Chettar Cheese. We're happy you're home, especially mom. She's been keeping track of the days faithfully on her missionary chart. She has the days color coated by zones and even added extra circles for when he extended. My phone alerted me to e-mail Chet, but I'll just have to change the name to Ross since he leaves in about a month. 감사합니다 Kamsahamnida

Big, Huge....

MARSHMALLOWS! You can only hope they are coming to a store near you. They are worth it, every penny.
We went to a bon fire last night and roasted away. We had a raccoon visitor, and he wanted to join in on the fun. We had to scare the raccoon away more than a dozen times, as I jumped up in my chair. They scare me, but I loved the smores!
