We were able to go boating with Rachel & Kevin and Trish & Jake yesterday and it was way fun!! Kevin's family ha a cabin by Twin Lake that was about 2 and a half hours away from here. So we left Friday night after Blake got done with school. We enjoyed the night with a camp fire and smores! We had a funny experience that was kind of crazy, a rat had gotten into the cabin and it ran behind the fridge. When the lights went out it would come out and look for food. Well luckily Blake and I were on an air mattress that was about 2 feet off the ground so we were not too scared. But Trish and Jake decided to sleep in the car! We tried to trap it inside the kitchen but it really didn't work so Kevin and I stayed up half the night trying to catch it!! Unfortunately we never did. So that night was way crazy! But the next morning we had lots of fun boating at the lake. It was warm weather and the water wasn't too bad, it definitely was a shock at first but then you got used to it. You can tell we were in the sun all day because we all got burnt, especially me!! My face is bright red!! We are all feeling the pains and aches too!! It was fun though and definitely worth it!

Our New Calling!
~Well we went to the campout this weekend and ended up having a great time. We have become really close to this one couple from Arizona and another that went to BYU, and spent most our our time with them while camping. It was fun, we were even asked as a group to do a skit for the ward after dinner and so the 3 boys, Blake included did this really funny skit. It was called Making Gravy and it was just a simple script but there was a director that would have them do the skit over and over acting it out differently. For instance they had to do it all Macho, and then Jamican, and then Cheerleader style (That was by far the best! Blake was even able to do a high kick and touch his toes! I was impressed!). It was a lot of fun to see them perform. Man I wish I recorded it so you could have enjoyed it too!!
~Today Blake and I got callings in our new ward. We were called to be team teachers in primary teaching the CTR 6 class!! I was excited to be able to work with Blake again in the primary but I will miss going to Relief Society and Gospel Doctrine class. Both have been really fun! I just hope that we will be able to keep meeting new people and not be cut off from the other members because we are in primary. Don't worry mom I will reach out and continue to have a good time meeting new people.
LOVE YOU ALL AND MISS YOU!!

OUR NEW HOME
~Well here we are in Spokane Washington!!! It is hard to believe that this is our new home! We found a cute little apartment and have been busy putting it together! Blake has already started law school and feeling the pressure of staying on top of his reading!! He came home after only 3 days of school and said that it had been the longest week of his life! So we are in for a nice ride! At least he finds the readings interesting or we would really be in trouble!
~I had to speak in sacrament meeting last Sunday, just me they said that they stopped having couples speaking together, but at least my turn is over! Our ward is great already. We have made friends and are having fun out here. I joined a walking club and every weekday morning we go walking in the morning about 4 miles! Man those first couple of times kicked my butt! I was so sore!! But it is nice to socialize and become more a part of the ward!
~This weekend we are planning to go on a ward camp out with some of the new couples that we are becoming close to. Although we are not very big campers, we are excited and I will have to let you know how things go!!

We just went to Oregon with my family in the beginning of August!! We had such a fun time! We went on a sand dune ride which was crazy fun and went to the beach. Man that water was freezing cold!! It is definitely not Florida water! Our favorite thing that we did was crabbing!! We rented a couple of boats and went out in the bay area and took the crabbing rings and baited them with chicken pieces and then threw them in the water. You had to go before it got high tide to find the best crabbing areas. Our first trip we caught over 20 keepers!! It was way fun!
