What the weather!?!?!

So, I was just thinking the other day how lucky we were to be having such beautiful weather here in Provo. It's been in the 60s the last week or so and we have been having so much fun with the warmth! Well, it appears that all good things must come to an end....Yesterday, it snowed. HARD! We had like 4 inches on the ground by the time we left for church. It snowed most of the day and I was soooooooo depressed. Today, the sun is out and the snow is melting, but it's still not super warm outside...Hopefully by tomorrow the snow will be just another bad memory....BRING ON THE SUN!!!!

This was Dungeness National Park...It was beautiful!
Cute kids!
The beach/ocean
Family....isn't it about....time? hahaha
beautiful!
Our camera died after this, but we did more fun things...We went out to eat again, we went to Microsoft and Aaron drove us around and showed us the whole "campus"....Then we went to the Microsoft museum and store and got to try out all of Microsoft's cool new gadgets and look at their products....It was really fun! Then we went home and hung out...The next day, we had to leave early in the morning to get back to Provo because I had a presentation in a class that day. It was such a fun trip and we are so glad Aaron and Kerry let us invade their home for a few days!

Seattle....Day 2

We went on a road trip to Port Angeles, Sequim, and Hurricane Ridge....It was really fun!

Seattle, WA... Day 1

We had a blast visiting (a couple weeks ago) family in Seattle. My brother and his wife live there with their three kids, and they have another boy on the way...We had such a great time! It was beautiful while we were there. It was so great spending time with them--we haven't been up there to visit in three years!

Flying over Mount Rainier. It was a beautiful picture!This is just amazing!!As soon as we got to Seattle, we went straight to Jordan's basketball game. He did great!
Enjoying the game with MayaFuture Basketball player!!Look how tall he is!!! After the game we went to the awards thingy where they give each player a little star for what they did well that day: good defense, best effort, etc. Ryan was having fun watching Jordan get his star...After the game we went to get something to eat...I like this picture because it looks like Josh is kidnapping Maya...He was really just swinging her around....haha!We went to this really good bakery in Black Diamond, which is a town near Maple Valley...Good sandwiches!!!When we got home we played outside with the kids and we also did crafts...Look at our amazing talent!!!
Of course, you can't have a complete day without doing Uncle Josh's hair...bahaha!!!
Ryan was shy at first, but it didn't take long before he started having a lot of fun with Josh!
And then we ate another amazing meal!!! Basically we ate really well all weekend!! Thank you Aaron and Kerry! This was a really good day! We had a blast! More to come...
