I am married now. Under punishment of death and severe scrutiny my sister insists that I write a new post.
Heidi is my wife.
My major is Environmental Science and I plan on graduating in August of 2009.
I like to play.
I like to eat.
I like to rest.
I like to sing.
I like to dance.
I watched High School Musical 3 yesterday. My favorite part was when Gabriella sang for Troy at the basketball game and got his "head in the game" again. Phew! Crisis averted.
We played basketball today. I'm just as bad as I used to be at it, only I'm taller now.
I'm going to eat more dessert.
Goodnight.

Life as I know it
Hello everyone,
Things are going pretty well here in Provo. I am feeling a little tired but other than that things are great. I had a really happening week this week. Let's start at the very beginning...
So, I don't know how many of you had heard, but Heidi and I broke up last week. We got back together this week and things are going great! The more I think about what happened, the more I think that I wasn't thinking. Heidi is awesome!
I know that other things don't really compare to that one, but I will surge ahead anyway. This week I got a bread maker at DI. I'm pretty excited about it. My very first experimental loaf is in the machine RIGHT NOW! I know you all probably can't control your excitement, but you will have to wait for a picture. Sorry.
This weekend I had the opportunity to go camping near Goblin Valley in southern Utah. It was pretty cold, but pretty awesome. We went on a hike in a slot canyon and it was really neat. There was a while where I probably wouldn't have fit if I wasn't going sideways. The rocks were really neat and all swirly and red. It was really cool. We went to the actual Valley of the Goblins and that was pretty cool too. It has some hoodoos similar to Bryce Canyon, but they are a little smaller and not quite so sturdy. It was all held together by dirt. I would say it was a mix between Bryce Canyon and the Badlands. We were able to run around there and climb on things and it was a blast. I really wanted to play kick the can, but we didn't :( I guess you can't have everything...
So, after a short trip home (I was really tired by this time) it was time to shower and get ready for my friend's birthday party! Her party took place at a tumbling gym near Springville. It was super fun. There were trampolines all over the place, and a foam pit that you could jump into in any way and not get hurt. It was a blast! I am a little sore today though.
Today I had the opportunity to play my violin in church with my roommate Tyler. We both accompanied the choir. I think that it sounded pretty neat, but I wasn't on the other side...Tyler definitely played the harder part, and that is OK with me.
Well, things are going great here! I'm excited for my vacation tomorrow, where I will work at least two shifts! Does anyone know any good recipes for honey butter?
Love,
Craig

Show-and-Tell
Hello Family and Friends!
I have once again waited a long time to post something on my blog! I think this may be because I want you to really appreciate them when they come...
So here's what's going on!
Classes are crazy! I am a little worried about my Wildlife Plant ID class. I study and study for our weekly quiz and then, without fail, I forget everything that I have learned the moment the quiz starts. We have to know anywhere from 14-29 plants per week and be able to recognize them and know their fa
mily name, scientific name, and common name, as well as whether they are a perennial or annual, and if they are a native or introduced species. It makes me crazy! But I am going to get the hang of it soon. My other study methods have been unsuccessful, so I'm moving on.
Last night we had a really cool ward activity. It was also my roommate Ben's birthday, and one of my other friends had a New Orleans Mardi Gras party at her house. It was a busy night. I had a lot of junk food, but then was able to get some real food in the form of jumbalaya.
It was really good. After a bunch of junk eating and other eating, we had our ward activity at the skating rink really close to the apartment complex. It was awesome. We played broomball wearing just our shoes, no skates. They had these fake brooms that were really sturdy-I remember breaking a broom or two in ward activities in Iowa...I only had a couple of injuries. I will include some high resolution, high quality pictures of my injuries for all to enjoy. They are not as bad as they look in the pictures, don't worry. It was a blast, and apparently my Bishop is some kind of professional.
What else is going on...
Heidi invited me to eat with her family tonight. I think it is one of her brothers' birthday. Everyone is going to be there. I was also invited when it was her dad's birthday a while ago. It was really funny because her mom thanked me for coming to "show-and-tell". It was really good and they are really nice and fun, so I'm excited to go back.
I think that's all for now! I hope that everyone is doing great! I realized that I have some time to update my blog as I am sitting here on Sunday mornings, so hopefully I will be more regular. With writing in my blog :P
Love,
Craig
