Snow Mobiling



So this weekend my roommate Cassie headed home to Idaho Falls with me. It was a fun-filled weekend that began with a delicious dinner of stack-ups. The night continued with an excursion to Winco to stock up on nuts, dried fruit, and granola. Winco has an amazing bulk foods section that just cannot be found anywhere in Logan. We concluded Friday night with the viewing of "Say Anything..." starring John Cusack (one of my personal favorites. The movie had two wonderful lines which I quoted the remainder of the weekend: "She's gone. I gave her my heart and she gave me a pen." as well as "I draw the line at seven unreturned phone calls."






On Saturday morning we (Dad, Julie, Clark, Cassie, and myself) headed to Island Park for a little snow mobile action. It was Cassie's first experience on a snow mobile and I was pretty excited for her. We mobiled our way right on over to Mesa Falls (a first experience for everyone) and took some wonderful pictures. The wind was horrendous and the snow came down quite fiercely. We completed our trip in safety and enjoyed the scenery around us.



After a delicious lunch of turkey sandwiches, grapes, Cheetos, carrots, and Crystal Light, we bundled up for one last ride. We rode to Big Springs where a man offered me a moldy bagel to feed the ducks and a swan. After filling the ducks, we scooted our way down the lane to a nearby meadow where we played and sped our way through the packed powder. After we had all satisfied our desires we headed back to the cabin to load up and head home. Upon arrival, Mom started assembling two delicious homemade pizzas.

Cassie and I made a delicious batch of Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies and ended the night watching "Win a Date with Tad Hamilton".

We attended church, broke our fast with yet another delicious meal (chicken cachetori, Caesar salad, bread sticks, and Dad's famous chocolate cake for dessert), and concluded the stay in Idaho Falls with watching the CES Fireside given by Sister Julie B. Beck. She spoke about (you'll never guess...) MARRIAGE! It was an excellent talk.

We returned to Logan in safety and are now doing fun things like homework and laundry. It was a good weekend to lead into a busy week of school and preparation for our spring break road trip to Washington.
