I'm just testing a blog post from my cell phone.

We Love Colorado

For those of you that didn't know, we're in Colorado Springs for the summer. So far, we love it! Our apartment is at least twice the size of our tiny studio back in Provo, and we have separate rooms and a dishwasher, dryer, and washer. Drew started his internship at Lockheed Martin on Monday, and it sounds like he likes it so far. I have been hanging out at home, reading by the pool, and cooking; things I haven't done since I started school. Last week we went to visit a lot of the people Drew knows from his mission, and it was a lot of fun. One of them had baby goats, which were adorable! Here are some pictures of our apartment:

And of some of our Colorado Adventures:
Garden of the Gods

Drew lived with the Bennetts (above) on his mission.

I thought the goat would make me look better....turns out I make the goat look cuter.

Drew's Birthday Party

Drew's birthday was on Friday, and we went over to my brother's apartment to have a cake and ice cream. We also tried out rock band, and it was a lot of fun! Here's some pictures of my honey at his 'party'. Happy 23rd Birthday, Drew!

Thanksgiving in Bozeman, Montana

Since we are going to Portland for Christmas we decided to have a mini Christmas at Michelle's parents house while we were there for Thanksgiving. Michelle gave me a couple of Estes rockets and her mom gave me a remote control helicopter. I've been having a lot of fun putting together the rockets and playing with the helicopter.

Here is a picture of us setting up the first launch.


Here is a video of our second successful launch of one of my rockets.
