WARD CAMPOUT!!


Todd looks so awake.
At least Mandy looks good in the morning.
Last night we went to a ward campout which of course happened to be on the same night as Logan and Zachary's birthday party. Sorry guys. Anyway it was pretty fun. We set up our awesome tent and then laid out our beds. Todd and I bought some pool rafts ($1.50 bargain) and used them as our air mattresses. I think we all had a pretty fun time, we played Phase 10 with another couple for about 3 hours. Then we pretty much all just hung out together, Todd would occasionally chat with someone else. When I commented on how we were at a ward campout but we were only talking to Eric and Mandy, Todd brought up the point that our family relationships are the most important. Good point. Anyway that is a picture of Eric in our sweet tent, and the other two are in the morning after we woke up. I don't know if I can really say woke up, we didn't really sleep. There was an awesome wind storm that we thought was going to blow the tent over that I think kept most of us up all night. It was a good time though.

Harry Potter Fanatics

Last night we went to see Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix with Eric, Mandy, and Amanda. The show was at 12:10 but we got there around 9:30ish. We played Phase 10 in the theater to pass the time. It was a good movie, although it does leave quite a bit out. Understandable when an almost 900 page book is being condensed to a two hour movie. The discussion afterward got Todd curious enough that he is going to start reading the books. So we are going to start buying them, YEAH!!! Because of our wait time in line, we had a pretty interesting run in with a group of girls at the ticket taker. They just sort of walked up and expected to get in line then. I said "Excuse me, we've been waiting in line for a long time." They didn't like that very much and tried to make excuses for cutting in line, but I wasn't going to let them do it in front of us. It was pretty interesting, and I don't think they like me very much.
