IN CASE YOU WERE WONDERING, WE'RE ALIVE.

i wish i had some great excuse for not blogging like, "oh we were out of the country in bora bora and didn't have internet! for a month!" how great of an excuse would THAT be? bora bora? for a month!? it would be the best vacation in the world! anyway, so here we are in rexburg. nothing exciting. also. it's june which means a) it's my birthday month, b) MIKIE GRADUATES NEXT MONTH! we're very excited. and c.) we go to ALASKA for the first time since we left in 2010. ALASKA! THE LAST FRONTIER! BEARS TOOTH! TACO KING! MOUNTAINS AND STUFF! i take it back, i would rather go to alaska for a month than bora bora... or would i...

today in nursery, we introduced the bubble machine so us nursery leaders could stop hyperventilating from blowing so many bubbles at the kids. let's just say it was hilarious. they did not like it. all the littles stood around the bubble machine staring at it, not touching any bubbles. i know for a fact they were judging us and thought it was a poor substitute for human interaction. and then all of a sudden, one of the boys became that maniac fish from finding nemo and sat down and started laughing and giggling and grabbing the bubbles. half the time he just sat there grinning from ear to ear at the bubbles. working in nursery has got to be my favorite calling. i don't think there's anything better than holding and teaching and playing with toddlers. i always tell mikie about all the funny things the babes do and maybe it's not as funny when i tell him but gosh, i love all those kids so much.

anyway, here are some pictures to prove that we aren't dead.

^^i forced mikie to walk with me at the orchards and then we got allergies really bad. stupid allergies.

^^at the local farmer's market with our favorite people haleigh + brad

^^we went to mesa falls and didn't pay for parking and then suddenly there were these large flying insects everywhere. i'm telling you we were being punished.




see? we're alive.

Alaska might almost be better than bora bora and I'm jealous! And in our nursery they turn on the ac unit and use it to blow the bubbles!

Whaaaat, you can do that? Like just pour bubbles into the AC?
