Home on the Range

Well, as promised, here are some pictures from our "graduation" trip to Yellowstone. There really was some pretty scenery, but a lot of snow. See for yourself!

The hot springs and, of course, Old Faithful.The waterfalls and Yellowstone Canyon (where the park got its name from) plus some other pretty pictures.

Because of a lot of snow in areas, the animals stayed close to the roads and water, which is why we were able to see so many!

Here is Tim on one of the trails we went on.

Ha! Ha! It actually wasn't all this bad, but it makes for quite the picture! Burr!

Yellowstone Preview

After graduation, Tim and I went with his parents and Scott and DeAnne to Yellowstone. We're getting our computer fixed right now, so I'm at the library and don't want to post all of my cool pictures, but I have to admit, this was my favorite part! The baby buffalo were so young they had a hard time walking! It was so cute. So...this is my preview for my next post. I hope you can stand the suspense!

Graduation

After a very long journey, Tim has finally graduated from BYU! He graduated in Econ, and is currently looking for jobs having to do with economic research. It's exciting to find out what will happen in the future, but for now, we're pretty excited for him!
Thanks to all of the family who came to support Tim and Aubrey (for those of you who don't know, that is Tim's sister who also graduated). We really enjoyed seeing and spending time with you.

Our "Yard"

Here is a picture of the front of our apartment. We are the only ones who decided to do something with our plot of land, and it just so happens that the daffodils popped up this spring (we did the rocks and wood chips, etc, but not the flowers). I thought it was pretty cute!

This is the other side of our walk.

Provo 1/2 Marathon

Here are some pictures of Stephanie and me running the Provo 1/2 Marathon. We just decided to do it a month ago, bumped up our mileage, and ran! It was a fun time except for the wind. I guess I even got 3rd place in my age group. (That's what Stephanie told me-I was too cold to stick around for my results.)

My Husband Tim

My Tim brought these home for me the other day because he is so cute! I sure love him!

Master Muffler and Brakes

I have to just put a quick word in about the Master Muffler and Brakes place in Provo. I went there to get new brakes on our car, but the brakes started squeaking after only a few weeks. I've been pretty busy lately, so I didn't get in there until yesterday, but the warrantee had expired ten days earlier. I was prepared to pay at least $40 for labor, but when I got there, they replaced the front brake pads and roters (however that is spelled) and didn't charge me anything. The owner said he wasn't picky about warrantee dates and explained why some brakes are just bad. My dad says he never trusts mechanics he doesn't know, so I thought I'd put a little note out there that at least they are honest with your brakes and won't try to take all your money.
