go chuckars!...or maybe orem owlz...

Last night our good friends brittany and kelly invited us to a chuckars game in idaho falls. They got coupons for dollar tickets, hot dogs and drinks! sweet deal right? before the game started the US army was there and right on the field swore in about 20 new young men into the army. It was a very tender moment. These boys all looked SO young...i even got a little teary-eyed seeing these brave boys wanting to defend our country. The game started and the chuckars proceeded to get slaughtered after the 2nd inning so we started rooting for the owls..haha..we left after the 6th inning when the score was 10-2. It was a chilly night so when we left we stopped at maverick for some delicious hot chocolate. It was a great way to end a fun night!
the score didn't change much after 3 innings
me and britt...ryan caught me a little bit off guard

when the van wagenen family gets together...

As you may have gotten from my last post my Mummi (english translation: grandma) came from Finland this past week! I was especially excited because i hadn't seen her in over 8 years! Because she came our whole family got together. All 24 of us plus my mom's brother and his family(lasse, eva, lauri and eero). We did all of the things we never would have done if it weren't for the finns, like antelope island in the great salt lake, kennecott copper mines, bee's game, and music and the spoken word. We're really grateful we were able to spend time with my family.
