Us at Brick Oven. We decided to take Angie out since she
basically did all our packing to move. We tried the whole
time to get her to hit on the waiter, ha.

Sorry I don't have many pictures. We've been so busy that I haven't taken the time to snap any.  Pretty lame for a blog, I know.  Landon is home! And such a lucky guy, along with going to Benson's wedding, he got to help move furniture and clean our old apartment as his homecoming activities for the weekend.  We are living in the new apartment now, trying to get things all unpacked.  Getting the couch inside the apartment proved the biggest challenge so far, since the doorway wasn't really big enough.  As the men tried to shove and maneuver, I winced just imagining the couch ripping every time.  But they got it inside without too many scrapes or scratches.  Thanks to our home teachers and friends for helping with the furniture!  We had to go back and clean the old apartment the other day, which wasn't so bad except for the oven and fridge.  I'm not sure what spilled in either one, but it was a questionable substance that left me gagging.  Bless Landon's heart, because he cleaned both of them while I did the bathroom and other areas of the apartment. I'm not sure if it was because he felt bad that Angie and I moved the rest of the boxes, or just because he loves me, but I'll take it either way.  But I had to laugh when he commented, while scraping the above mentioned substance off the fridge floor, "This is disgusting.  It's probably gonna give me cancer."

Just Another Week

 

The last week has been somewhat eventful. Angie and I saw the Pirates 4 movie in the dollar theater. I love that place, because I don't have to feel bad if a movie really isn't as good as I hoped--it's only a dollar, right? But I was a little peeved when the price actually went up to two dollars. Their killing my justification!  

Anyway, later, we heard that Seven Peaks was having a night party.  Generally it's a thing with a lot of high schoolers, but we figured, we get in for $4 instead of $25, and a lot of the slides are still open.  So, it's pretty fun night swimming, if nothing else.  We had a good time, and some of the slides are a lot more exciting in the dark :) I avoided the dance party though, to Angie's disappointment. We have also been lucky this week to see two good friends.  Troy Stucki was in town, and stopped by. We played some intense table tennis and mastered the mini basketball shot (well, he did. Angie and I still can't make anything!). Then my old roommate Ashley Moulder paid us a visit and we had fun catching up over some pool and air hockey.  I'm pretty sure none of us would ever be called a "pool shark" with how long those games took!  But it was good to see her again. 

This week Angie and I have been moving to a new apartment. We decided to skip the packing up part, and just take car loads of one room over per day.  It's kind of nice, because I didn't have to fold all of the clothes and then get them all out again to hang them up.  I just took all of the hangers from the closet, plopped them in the car and put them straight in the new closet. Brilliant!  We didn't really have to get any new boxes either, I am just using and reusing the four we found from someone getting rid of theirs.  The only downside is that since our moving process is taking a couple of days, Angie and I are doing it all ourselves--which means a lot of trips back and forth to the car. Other than the first day, where Angie nearly threw out her back, it hasn't been bad.  We still have the kitchen left, and then on Friday we move all of the furniture in a moving truck.  And then Landon and I will have a new apartment! Crazy.   Thanks to Angie, for staying here long enough to help me.  Moving is never fun, and she has been doing a lot to help while I'm at work.

Landon tells me they are done with the cherry harvest, and he is coming home today, after two months. He has been drying and preparing lots of fruits to bring with him, which is great.  Kinda sad that he is coming home to an empty apartment with moving boxes everywhere, but what can ya do.
