One month later...

Well, it's been exactly 30 days since our previous (and first) blog post, so I guess it's officially okay for us to post again. We don't want to subject our blog to overposting, you know... Haha.

So, here are some highlights about what we've been up to:

• FIRST, mainly because it is the only picture I have readily available (and also because she looks so cute!), Shauna got her hair cut! Although she's going to kill me when she finds out I posted the one of her with straightened hair, it's my favorite! When she wears her sunglasses, I think she looks like a movie star! (Just know I loved you all! Remember me for the good things! LOL)
• Next, I signed up to be on our ward's intramural kickball team at BYU and ended up being asked to be the captain! It has been SO much fun! Our team is solid! We've played our four regular season games so far and our record is 2-2. Granted, one of the wins was by default since the other team had to forfeit, but, we've had a lot of fun and I think we've even learned a lot about the sport and improved our skills. Now, we're just waiting for our tournament ranking and we'll be off to the championship! I think Shauna got some pics of me, maybe even some video, so check back for those later (or tune into ESPN; I'm sure one of their million stations picked up our game...)
• About two weekends ago, we splurged on a garden! Our landlord gave us permission to cultivate a nice garden plot that hadn't been used for years at another complex of his right across the street from us. We spent an entire Saturday ripping weeds out and getting it ready (and anhialating Jiminy Cricket's family... you should've seen them! There were at least 20, and we couldn't afford any Seagulls, so...) and then we spent an entire evening shopping at Home Depot and planting the seeds. We may, I say 'may', have gone a little overboard on the planting, but it's our first time! So, we have to experiment with what grows. And, speaking of growing, we checked today (it's been about 9 days since we planted) and we're starting to get some sprouts! The zucchini is growing the best so far.

Other than the above, not much else going on. Shauna's got six teaching days left of this, her first school year. I just wrapped up my first round of Spring midterms (one went well, one didn't). And we're both excited for summer!
