New Couch and Other Fun Stuff

First off, I would just like to document our most recent step down the road of adulthood: we bought a new couch. We have been needing one since we moved, and we're so excited about having it now!


Cute, right? And it can match ANYthing. Yeah, I kind of love it. :)

On a more *actual fun* note, we also celebrated Trevin's birthday recently! Through a lot of events and life-ness, we have both been at BYU for quite some time, and I consider myself very lucky to have had so much time to be so close to him. He has been a big part of my life and is one of my best friends.

I just can't get enough of this picture. I don't have many pictures one-on-one with siblings,
but this one is pretty fantastic.
Before long he'll graduate and he and Kim will move forward with their lives, and I will be so sad to see them go! But in the meantime, we're having so much fun living in Provo with them. On Sunday we all got together to play some D&D, and we started off the night singing Happy Birthday and having angel food cake (with extra whipped cream :).

Those are Lego candles!

For Trevin's actual birthday the next day, Kim had to work that night so Josh and I took him out for some fun at the Nickel Arcade in Orem.


I think the fact that it's called a "Fun Center" makes it a requirement to have fun while you're there. And we did not disappoint. And even better, Josh and I had just been saving up nickels whenever we get change and putting them aside to use for this very purpose. So then all we really had to pay was admission!

In other news, I've also been rehearsing for the past two and a half weeks for BYU's spring opera, L'elisir d'amore, or The Elixir of Love. (To be clear, I'm in the pit orchestra, NOT an opera singer.)


We are having four performances this week, and then it's all finished. It's been really tiring, but fun! And I'm glad for any opportunity I have to play my French horn in different productions or anything like that! It's a skill that I don't want to lose once I'm out of school, and I have a lot of fun participating in things like this.

While we're taking a nice summer break from school and we're mostly just working, we're having some fun as well.

What is everyone else doing for their summer?
