Cleaning the Conference Center and Heart-attacking the Boys

Indeed, what a busy weekend it has been! Though the week is going to, no doubt, be far busier. My life this week, in reader's digest form:

-Take the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) on Friday
-Take first Immunology midterm on Friday
-Kinematics and Statics homework due on Thursday

After I make it through these three things, life should actually be pretty fabulous. As a result of my busy upcoming week, I feel it is my duty to update this blog (so that it gets some attention too!).

First: Last Saturday Kerianna, Matt and I went and assisted in cleaning the conference center. Needless to say, I have a new appreciation for vacuum cleaners and big, clean buildings. Below are a few shots from those escapades. It was actually a lot of fun! I would do it again in a heart beat!

To the right is a picture of Kerianna and I with our massive extension cords. And believe it or not... the cords actually matched my shirt!

Upper Left: The three of us. Matt's cords matched his shirt too! (Geesh Kerianna, get with the picture will you!)

Lower Left: We were able to "explore" the whole conference center. This is a shot I took of the temple through the window. I am quite impressed with how it turned out--considering that this was after the LCD screen stopped working on the camera, and that I didn't have a flash.

Right: Kerianna and I started playing with Matt's camera to..um..keep us awake. We were cleaning the conference center at 9 PM to midnight. I like our eyes in this shot; they make me laugh.




Okay...new topic: Heart-attacking the boys. So if you haven't figured it out yet, we have two amazing guy friends: Cort and Matt. We pretty much take turns making each other dinner every weekend (and have a lot of other random fun adventures too...). So, in order to tell the guys "thanks" for all that they did for us, we "heart-attacked" them. I am sure that they were embarrassed by the whole thing, but it proved for some good times.

So, while making all the hearts, we started playing the "make a marker mustache" game. Needless to say, it proved for some way fun photos and silliness in our kitchen (picture to the left). Then, in attempts to show Kerianna how talented my chin is, I attempted to hold two markers with my face (the right). I was successful--because I am that amazing. What can I say?

So we sat on our kitchen table writing quarky sayings on all of the hearts. I made Kerianna write a lot of them, because she has the better handwriting of the two of us (or at least I think so!)

The ultimate finished product was very happy. Interestingly enough, not a single one of the boys' neighbors saw us putting them up. Though I am sure that they were wondering what was up when they saw all the hearts.

Overall it was a lot of fun, and I hope that the boys got a little smile because of what we did!
