Last weekend Steve's family came into town. Last time they were here we went to Brick Oven and the whole family was converted. We officially made it a family tradition by going there last weekend.

The fun table! (Steve's signature pizza: tomato and pineapple; Heather's signature pizza: pepperoni and green peppers)

They also gave us the awesome gift of taking us to the BYU vs. New Mexico Homecoming game. It wasn't a blowout or anything but they won and we had a terrific time.

Our first and only game this season

We reached a milestone this week: first time being away from each other for more than 24 hours since we've been married. It was really weird to be away, but I had so much fun taking a trip with my fellow graduate students to do hearing screenings at the Senior World Games in St. George for 3 days.
What did we do?
1. Enjoy 80 degree weather
2. eat for free every meal including at Cafe Rio, IN-N-OUT (my first time-- excellent burgers), and Arby's
3. see more earwax in 2 days than we have in all of our lifetimes combined
4. see Nights in Rodanthe (by same writer as the Notebook-- I thought it was HORRIBLE, luckily it was free);
5. hear the following joke 100 times Me: I'm going to be doing 3 tests with you today. Old smelly man who just finished playing softball: What? Huh? Can't hear ya? hahahahaha
6. meet some AMAZING senior athletes from around the world (USA, Canada, Brazil, Russia, Germany, etc) competing in everything from volleyball to softball and pickleball to square dancing. Seriously, they had gross earwax and B.O., but I don't know many 75 year old men who can roll into a backwards summersault during a volleyball game. They were never in a hurry and SO patient with us when we were slow.

old people and their jokes... they can get, well... old. hahahaha.
wow, I suck.
Oh that joke brings back so many memories from last year! I hope you enjoyed St. George despite being apart--that was hard for me, too, but it was also great to get some hearing screening hours!
