no i'm not dead.. just a disgrace to the blogging world



I don't know how many "i'm sorry i haven't kept up my blog" posts i've done but well.. here's another.
i've been back since april 11th. that's over two months of adventures that you've missed out on hearing about.

I got a nifty new touch phone, the verizon dare, which doubles as a sweet little on the go camera so i'll let the pictures talk for most of it...

there was a beach trip (of course)
this is our ecola beach,
it's perfect because the mountains protect us from blechy wind

ate at doogers (good clam chowder)

some cool flowers growing on a rock

Cruised Portland a couple times... ate at Todai's (the best sushi in the area)

Went to Rhodendendron Gardens,

This was an option for Megan's reception, though GORGOUS, it was a bit of a drive and all of the flowers would've been gone by august.

still, it was a pretty neat place. As shown in the picture, the bushes were HUGE

Played Frisbee at LVP with our good friend Jeff
(some pictures we took after)
Saw a REAL life DeLorean,
proceeded to follow it through town to get this awesome picture, and creeped the guy out, everytime there was a stop sign or light he'd speed off trying to lose us.

bought this creepy "Lanky Cat" for Cody's sister for her birthday
She said she wanted a cat and since I couldn't get her a real one I got her this thing
it's creepy, but cute..?

some stuff that doesn't pictures to go with it:
-i have also looked for a job for the summer....and have failed miserably. I have a job lined up for our county fair working at a burger stand (we know the owners of the restuarant that put up the stand) So hopefully that works out.
-Cody and I are still marathoning Gilmore Girls. We're finally on the last season we have about 8 episodes left. Such the good show.
-Cody's been doing miscellaneous labor for his family earning a few bucks here and there.
-I've been taking up riding my bike (well megan's bike) around town
-We work out at our local gym three days a week
-Still play basketball on thursdays with our ward. Probably the highlight of my week. Don't under-estimate the Taylor sisters
-Cody and I have taken up playing tennis for funsies some days
-Hanging out with my bff Amy who's back from school in Canada
other than that we just keep on keeping on.
Highlight Blogs that deserve their own post to come in the very near future that I should've blogged about but failed to, Cody and Rusty's baptism, and my friend Katie's wedding.
