Fishing in Savannah :)

This past weekend, my parents and I headed to Idaho to bid farewell to a cousin that was leaving for her mission.  While I wasn't too thrilled to be back in Idaho where it was still frigid and windy, I was excited to see the new place that Peter and I were moving into.  Lori and Zach were gracious enough to open up their home to me and my parents so that we were able to have some idea of what our new apartment would look like. (They're going to be our neighbors!)
While I was walking around their place, trying to envision Peter and I in it, I kept feeling my phone vibrate and noticed that Peter was sending me pictures of his fishing trip in Savannah.  He spent the whole week telling me how excited he was to spend the weekend with his mom and dad and big brother out in the ocean, fishing for who knows what.  Seeing the pictures made me homesick for him, but also got me excited to be able to spend a couple weeks down south where it's warm.  Well, it's warm now that the storm of the century is over down there ;)




Sweet picture of Chris and Annette on the 'Lovely Netter' :)







As much as I love the West, I've always found something magical about the South.  I can't wait to spend time down there and enjoy it again.  

Seeing Peter again will be a bonus :)

Peter loves Bowling!

Peter actually dislikes bowling. A lot.
So when he sent me pictures of himself bowling with his co-workers, I couldn't help but post them.  The world needs to know that Peter Barnes does in fact bowl.

Called to Serve!

A week ago, a large white envelope came in the mail with my little brother's name on it.  It was an envelope that he had waited and prepared his whole life to get and now that it was here, he couldn't wait to find out where he was spending the next two years.  I could tell you where he is going on his mission, but it would be much more fun to let him do the honors instead.






Of course Peter had to be a part of it!!!





Congrats Thomas! We're sure proud of you!
