Soldier Hollow

Last Saturday, our ward went tubing at Soldier Hollow. It was so much fun! We were on the mountain from 8:00-10:00pm, so it was dark except for the lights. On the "tow-trip" up, I would look up at the stars, which were really clear if you put your hand up to block out the bright lights. For about the first 45 minutes, they were playing the BYU vs. Kansas basketball game over the speakers. Although it was hard to hear clearly, we all knew they lost. :( Oh well. Most of the time we would go down in groups since there were so many of us (two wards were there). It was just a blast!

Update

This is just for you Brian. :)
Life here in Provo, Utah is continuing to roll on. Classes are going well, if sometimes a little boring (biology~cough). Jennifer and I finally signed a contract for housing next Fall/Winter. We will be staying at University Villa, not that half of you know where that is. I made banana cake and banana bread last night, and they turned out...barely. I was so excited when we went to the Creamary on Tuesday and they were selling ripe bananas for $.25 a pound. I've been wanting to make banana bread but the last bananas we bought went too ripe before I got the chance. Here was the answer! Bananas at more than half off and I didn't even have to wait for them to ripen! Perfect. What else...we went to our first rugby game last Saturday. First sport I've gone to in a while that I had not idea what was going on. We tried to prepare for it by watching "Forever Strong" but decided it was like trying to learn football by watching "Remember the Titans." It was still a lot of fun!
Well, thats about it from BYU!
