We had a great time eating lots of fried food thanks to Wendy and her deep fryer (we liked the pickles the best).
Maggie enjoyed my little red wagon.
And we got to try on each other's hand me downs. It was a great night, just what we needed in dreary January.In March I convinced Julie and Dan to go snowshoeing with me.
I didn't want to go with a bunch of pros for my first time and none of us had ever gone so it was perfect. We went up to the Spruces campground and had a blast. I can't wait to go again this year! Dan enjoyed going over all the natural snow bridges, Julie and I were a little bit more nervous about falling in the stream below.
It did backfire on him once, when he didn't quite make it over the bridge and got stuck, I had to go running up the hill to find a better place to cross over and help him (after we got pictures of course!
My family fell in love with the newest Les Miz Anniversary special that aired on PBS, especially Alfie Boe. Julie joined his fan club and found out he was performing with the BYU-Idaho Symphonia, so she convinced us all to drive up to Rexburg to see him perform live.
We took the long way on the ride up and drove through Logan to stop at the Cox Honey farm, the cheese factory, and the Pepperidge Farms factory. We thought this Visiting Teaching bag was hilarious, it has the lesson and the treat all together, no need to visit, just drop it on the porch. 
When we got to Rexburg, we went to dinner at our all time favorite Chinese restaraunt - Fongs. One of my roommates from my first year at Ricks is living in Rexburg, so she and her husband and her little boy came to dinner with us, it was so fabulous to see Melissa! 
Dan made the supreme sacrifice to come with us since it was in the middle of March Madness, luckily Julie had just bought an iphone, and there was an app to watch the games, so he didn't miss too much.
