One last March post

So for March we weren't the greatest at remember to write, but hey some is better than none.

This month both me and Eric had to give talks at church, but not the same week, one after the other. I got lucky and knew a month in advance that I would be speaking which is good cause I'm super busy. I also got lucky in having my Sunday to speak be the one right after Spring Break so I had time to prepare. Eric on the other hand got called late Tuesday night to speak the following Sunday. He had to work all week and didn't have the luxury to take his time to prepare. But it all worked out and we gave our talks, so we're good until we move.

Besides all our everyday business, we took some time this weekend to go on a date. We went out to Wonderland which is way north on Division, up by Whitworth's campus. We were just planning on playing a round of minigolf, but this week is Spring Break for the Spokane School District so they were having a Spring Break Special, where for the price of two attractions, you could have unlimited. So we decided to do that. We started off by playing minigolf, but a crazy silly version. The second time we golfed regularly, but wrote down all the funny things that they suggested to do. I'll add them in at the bottom of the post. Then we went outside and went go karting. We had a lot of fun doing this and probably went a total of almost 10 times. We also played lasertag while we were there along with a game of guitar hero. So we had a lot of fun. We finished the night off picking up some icecream to eat at home.

It had been a while since we just sporadically went out and did silly things together so it was a lot of fun. My thesis is due this week, so I have been working a lot on that and Eric is super tired after work with trying to play soccer two nights a week on top of that. We have fun though and are getting super excited to move!

Golf the fun way
1. Use the alternate hand to putt (Right to left, left to right)
2. Do not use club first shot
3. Use club as a pool cue
4. Exchange shots of each others' balls (p1 to p2, p2 to p3, next round p1 to p3, p2 to p1, etc)
5. Putt on knees entire hole
6. Sing a Christmas song or 2 strokes
7. Putt through your legs backwards the entire hole
8. Use 2 putters to putt the entire hole
9. Use club upsidedown and hit with handle
10. Putt one-handed, one stroke each time both hands are on the club
11. Use your foot as a club
12. Keep one eye closed entire time
13. Make bird noises while you putt
14. Toss a token, start your ball there
15. Use your hands as a club
16. Stand over hole roll ball down your nose
17. First putt eyes closed, rest use tip of club to putt
18. Finish as normal

March Madness

Eric is working full time again. He is really tired because it is a big change from being laid off for the past few months, but enjoys the work and being around people. I started working the Saturday before Stephanie's spring break, and had to work through all of her vacation which was sad. We celebrated our one year anniversary on the 13th. We went to a hockey game and enjoyed watching a movie and having time together. I also participated in the ward talent show. I played a toaster for my talent, and no that is not an error, I really played a toaster! we will try to get our video posted shortly. were tired so i am done writing tonight.
