Arizona Trip

This is pretty much the longest either of us have been away from our families so we decided to make a weekend trip to Arizona to see everyone. It was a lot of fun! We spent the first night with Alex's parents. They even waited for us to get there (which was like 10PM) to have dinner! Then, we went to see Stephanie's parents and grandparents. We played with Stephanie's brothers pretty much the whole day. Alex strapped them in the truck.
We played volleyball in the truck that night.We let them take turns driving. Parents don't be mad, we made sure they were safe : ) Apparently, we had a little too much fun! After a long day, we took turns sleeping. The next day, we drove back to see Alex's parents and they gave us a lot of furniture to take back to New Mexico. We had a nice brunch there with Alex's grandma and aunt and then we drove back. It seemed too short and we cannot wait for Thanksgiving so we can see everyone again. We miss you guys!

We are finally home!

Well after 2 days and 22 hours of driving, we finally made it home! As much as I enjoyed being in the car listening to Alex's singing

I loved finally getting out of the car and coming back to our house.
We were pleasantly surprised at the gas prices. They went down at just the right time for our cross country trip.

Icarus

Icarus is a game that all the Air Force Lieutenants play here at training. Alex likes to say it is the Air Force's way of ruining dodge ball by making it more complicated.
Alex has played a few times since we have been here and his team hasn't done so well. This is his sad face after losing a game.But he won today so that was exciting! Also, today, he was running full speed and he accidentally ran into a girl, more like tackled her. He felt really bad, and the girl was obviously mad because when they got up she looked ready to punch him. He looked a little scarred of her. It was pretty funny.

Amish Friendship Bread

For those of you who don't know about this bread, what happens is someone gives you a bag of liquid ingredients and you keep it for 10 days.
On the 10th day, the ingredients multiply and the ingredients create 4 more bags for other people to start and you get to bake the rest to create your bread. So one of the wives here made some Amish Friendship Bread and then gave the other wives the starters for it. Well, as you can imagine, it has multiplied here and we have way to many people trying to pawn off their bags to the other wives. It is absolutely fantastic though and it turned out great. I am even going to do it again!
