You Know You're In Trouble When...

You walk into the kitchen and you see this! Lincoln on the table. I swear this kid is part cat. And he gets it from his father. Apparently Lincoln has learned how to climb up onto the kitchen chair and then onto the table. Joy for me. I suppose he'll be sitting up on the refrigerator next. :)

Moving on to more exciting topics, we had a pretty great weekend. It started on campus on Thursday. BYUSA (which is the BYU student association) was having a big to-do to get everyone to register to vote. It went on all week, and every day they gave out different free stuff, well on Thursday, the day Aaron and I decided to register, the free item was cotton candy! Yay! Pure sugar, who doesn't love it? Well, Aaron doesn't, and neither does Lincoln, but that was fine because I didn't even have to share!


On Friday Aaron came home at 3:00pm whoo-hoo. That was probably the best treat of the whole weekend right there. We sat out on the grass for awhile while Lincoln played, and just relaxed. It was nice. On our way into the house I decided to see what it would be like to "walk in Aaron's shoes". Too bad I can't even get my poor little short leg over the crossbar, let alone get my butt on the seat. Then we had to run some papers up to the Student Health Center, and on the way home we stopped at my new favorite dessert place on the planet. It's called Yoasis. It's frozen yogurt and they put fruit and granola and stuff like that on top. Simple, yet delectable! I'm addicted already. But the fun part is they hand you out a calendar and every day they have some weird way to get either a free topping or a free mini yogurt. For example, there's joke day, tell the cashier a joke, get a free topping. Pajama Day, wear your pj's get a free mini yogurt. And many other wonderful days such as this. It's a college student's paradise. Or at least it's mine. Yum! I highly recommend discovering if there is a Yoasis near you.


Friday night was Fall Fest, the welcome back party on campus for all the students. Mainly we were in because they were serving free pizza. It didn't start until 8:00pm though, way past Lincoln's bed time. But we really couldn't pass up the free pizza. So we put Lincoln down for a nap at 6:00pm woke him up at 7:15pm and drove up to campus, got there by 7:25pm, scoped out where they would be serving the pizza and got in line. Actually, we created the line, because we were definitely the first ones in it. Boo-yah! Talk about nerds! But hey, we got our pizza first, and we got it hot, so whose complaining? We're married anyway, it's not like we have to make a good impression.

Saturday night we had tickets to the O.C. Tanner Gift of Music at the Conference Center in Salt Lake. The concert was the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and the Utah Symphony Orchestra featuring Brian Stokes Mitchell, and Denys (I'm having trouble remembering her last name at the moment). We went with Aaron's twin brother Kelly and his date Rachel. It was a great concert! It was themed "American Songbook" so they did a bunch of patriotic songs, and also a bunch of songs that have been popular throughout American history. And thank you, thank you, thank you, Aunt Debby for watching Lincoln so that Aaron and I could go on a real date! And thanks Mom for the tickets, I'm glad you had other plans so we could enjoy a nice evening out!
