So... I was making this awesome salsa with my blender, but the tomatillos wouldn't go down to the bottom to be blended, so I thought I could just use my trusty rubber spatula and shove them down there. But, alas, the blender ate my favorite kitchen utensil. As you can see, Ellie was pretty embarrassed for me. The good news is that the salsa turned out pretty well and I can always get a new rubber spatula. Thank goodness Macy's still carries my favorite brand: Martha Stewart!!

Stephanie and I meet while attending church in the 80th ward of the 125 BYU Stake of Zion. On the first day of Church I was in charge of taking pictures for the Bishopric so they could get to know the new members of the ward. It was basically love at first sight. I eventually asked Stephanie to go on a double date and we have been in love ever since. She may say that she loved me first, but she didn't have a mama bear telling her to wait until she was thirty to start dating. I have to go, but will fill in more as time moves on.
