Oregon's Birthday

 It's been over a month since we have written. The ast month has gone by so quickly. I have been working quite a bit, including working some every weekend for the last month. We have been playing a lot of racquetball. I almost regret getting Adam to play since now he wants to play everyday. It helps that he has beat me a few times.

My brother Jared came to visit last week since we were selling him our car. It was fun to show him around Provo. We had a racquetball tournament while he was here that lasted three hours until Adam finally emerged victorious. Jared and I believe it's only because Adam can hold up better without food for long periods of time :). I forgot to take a picture while Jared was here. It seems to be a reoccurring theme lately haha.

It's Valentine's Day and also Oregon's birthday (the day Oregon became a state). Adam and I went to an early dinner and then watched the sunset on Utah Lake. The sunset was beautiful thanks in part to the pollution in the air. It was fun to spend Valentine's Day enjoying the outdoors and the good weather. I feel like Valentine's Day puts a lot of pressure on what a couple or a person "should" do. I think we all make life harder on ourselves when we get caught up on what we think life should be--I know I do. It was fun to spend Valentine's Day doing what we enjoy--and yes, we did play racquetball after watching the sunset :).
