is it summer yet?

Many many things have happened since we were posting somewhat regularly. We may get around to writing them up for their very own posting, but in the recent past we have:

got ourselves some spectacles (only one of us)

went on a hike to enjoy the wonderful weather and scenery

went on a little road trip to see Christopher give his farewell talk before he shipped off to start his 2 year Church Mission

finished the biggest puzzle either of us have ever seen

hung up pictures

went to a Hollywood red carpet movie premier... kind of

volunteered for a yoga festival in Santa Monica (very new age, I know)

signed up to volunteer for a service project in Compton (one day before the 20th anniversary of the Rodney King Riots)

got some fancy jewelry

made a Pavlova

finished Kyle XY on netflix

got in touch with our inner Jew

got in touch with our inner South East Asian

spent a million-bajillion hours playing a game with friends on Conference Sunday when the internet went out while also eating a million-bajillion cookies (technically speaking, of course)

watched Jason Mraz play through a hole in a fence

wrote letters to Christopher after he left for Utah

went to a yelp event where we ate a grip of cookies and played video games

did family history

made Adobo (fully supervised)

watched some of Coachella online (saving us $400+ and a second hand high)

got to go into a much bigger room shown in the last half of this clip

and probably some other stuff I can't think of at the moment.

All that and the weather seems to have floated back from warming up to mildly chilly. I almost feel like we've been in a crazy spring semester of classes and we're in need of summer break so we can party all night and sleep all day. Maybe if we get a break we can get back to posting more than once every 3 months.
