Birthday madness
It was my birthday last week. I’m 26 and I’m really feeling the effects. Despite my quickly aging body, we were able to go out and do some fun stuff. REI had a “garage sale” with tons of heavily discounted items. We got there half an hour early and there was already a huge line. […]

Bikes~
Well, a couple of weeks ago Jon and I thought we’d step up our exercise game and get bikes so that we could save on gas $ and get a little bit of a work out at the same time. I know from the pictures they look pretty cool, by my bike was only $60 […]
Vegas!
We took a trip to Las Vegas for my cousin’s wedding. It was a really fun trip, but the heat and dust was ridiculous. We found ourselves planning out where we were going based on where there would be air conditioning and how hot it would be. We decided to try some fancy hotels out […]
An eventful trip to Vancouver
This Saturday we took another quick trip up to Vancouver. We met up with a family I knew from my mission that had moved to Canada. It was fun to catch up on how they’ve been and find out all the news from the people I knew in the Philippines. It turns out there’s a […]
Angela’s birthday down under~
Well, I’m officially old. I turned 24 yesterday and as usual Jon planned a great birthday surprise for me. I was totally in the dark this time and my closest guess for what he planned wasn’t even remotely close. We drove up North about an hour where Jon had found a KANGAROO FARM!!!! It was the strangest […]
Our unmaintained garden
We don’t like to go out in the cold, so we abandoned our garden for the winter. This month has gifted us with a couple warm days so we checked up on our garden. Our garden has done surprisingly well! The compost we started a year and a half ago actually looks like compost! The […]
Zombie Prom and Baby Vomit
Well, we had a pretty eventful weekend. We’re finally recovering from our various trips and able to relax a little on the weekends. On Friday night we attended a musical that one of Jon’s YM was performing in. The title of the play: “Zombie Prom”. We figured, zombies + prom + musical, how can that […]
Deals, deals, deals! Deals all over the floor!
We had an uber-successful shopping season this year! About a week ago, we found a 24″ LCD full HD monitor for $170 with free shipping on the Dell Outlet website. Thanks to Twitter, I found a $20 coupon. So we got a humongous 24″ monitor for watching movies and viewing recipes while we’re cooking in […]
Ferret stopper
Pixel seems to really get in trouble when she goes in the kitchen. She climbs into the dishwasher, gets behind the fridge and sometimes climbs under the cabinets. So to stop her from getting into the kitchen since we’ve had her, we set up a barricade consisting of lots of boxes, blankets, and anything else […]
Party at the courthouse!
I spent all week serving on a jury panel and had a good time. Read about it at http://blog.boogly.net/2009/09/a-good-time-at-jury-duty/
