ROCK CLIMBING!!!! YEAH!!!

KC and I try to have a date night once a week. We started out taking turns planning it. As it turns out, KC is terrible at planning dates. If I make him plan it, I can fairly well predict what we're going to do. Go get salted caramel ice cream from either Smith's or Harmon's. Yeah. That's nice once in a while, but not every other week. I like variety.

As it turns out, however, KC is VERY good at spur-of-the-moment dates. Those are always epic! So we changed tactics and now I plan a potential date for each week but if KC has a good idea he can take over the date.

So far, he's taken me rock climbing twice. :D He knows me so well. Although I suspect he was thinking of himself just as much as he was thinking about me.

 It's not the funnest drive down to Momentum in Sandy, but KC drives so it's ok. On Monday, he had me drive and we had to turn around halfway there because I forgot our gear... Oops. So now he drives so that I won't be thinking about everything at once and forget stuff.

It's so expensive to climb here in Salt Lake! I loved climbing in Vernal, since the rec center is so inexpensive. Besides that, you have to spend more in fuel here. So we don't go very often. Thus, when we got there the first time, neither of us could climb the hard routes. This is what happened after I finished a 5.10c...

So basically, I died. I finished the route though! KC laughed at me for, like, ten minutes! It wasn't nice... Then he took a picture... Then posted it on facebook... Whatever.

Last time we went, however, I easily finished a 5.10c. :) I think I did a 5.10d as well, but I can't remember. And it wasn't even all that difficult at all. Of course, the trick is to believe in yourself. I got my mojo back! Whoohoo! KC's still working on it though. He finished all the routes I did, and he has the skill for it, but he's not as confident. So it was more difficult for him. I'm excited to go back and move up to the 5.11's.

Oh and guess what?!? They're building another Momentum climbing gym slightly closer to us! It'll open in the fall! Maybe we'll be able to get a membership then and go all the time!

I misses my sissy...

Hi all! I've seen lots of people do blogs about their life. I suppose I can attempt to do the same. I'm not very good at taking pictures though, so good luck with that one.

So, KC and I got married on December 15, 2012. It was a beautiful snowy day. I felt like the snow queen. I was so happy that day. And to be honest, I've never regretted it. KC is the best husband a girl could ask for. Tomorrow is our four month anniversary. :)

Last Wednesday, my little sister entered the MTC. I miss her a lot. We were best friends in high school, told each other everything, did everything together. I loved spoiling her. I'd buy snacks from the bookstore for her. Oh, she hated that! She didn't want anyone to spend money on her. But I'd tell her to hush up and accept it. So she would. After I became a poor college student and she got a job and had more money than she knew what to do with, she took over the spoiling side of things. I'm sure she paid me back ten times over but she never let me protest because I did the same for her when I had the chance.

Last year, the Venturing crew came out to Salt Lake to go rock climbing. I got to tag along, since it was mostly just my family who came! She and I had fun switching shoes with each other between going rock climbing and going to the mall. Of course, she wasn't quite sure how heelys work, so we switched back shortly after. :)

This was a fun little experiment we did together at youth conference one year! We decided we were both light enough to take one kayak, as long as we could both fit on it. It was so much fun! She didn't even fall out.

Hahahaha! Sorry. This was the best Sunday afternoon (or morning. I don't remember the time of day.) picture ever. Becca and Rachael are the only ones smiling. Nobody else was having a good day at all. Wes had to hold a screaming Wyatt, I got to hold a crying Braden, and Alison was right in the middle of the two most unhappy little boys. Becca and Rachael must have been quite happy to be behind everything and not have to deal with it directly.

KC tells me that he is in an abusive relationship but it's ok. I think he's silly. (She thinks I'm silly 'til she is backhanding me while trying to tell my sister happy birthday...or christmas...or whatever I was trying to tell her. The fact that I can't remember shows either emotional or cerebral trauma, proof of the abuse. She also figured out if she takes her rings off it won't show any bruises...but honestly, it's ok.)
