Karl and Angela Rees

Angela is apparently a mini-golf expert. She beat Karl twice in mini-golf on Friday night. And Karl even did better on the course than he had ever done before. So now Karl's bowing his head in shame. But it was a very nice and pleasant evening, and it kicked off a very fun weekend.  read more »

We went on a spontaneous trip to Bryce Canyon (http://www.nps.gov/brca/home.htm) this week. On Monday, we found out that Angela's parents and brother Richard were going to Bryce Canyon Wednesday night through Saturday. Angela had an appointment with the dentist on Friday, so she already had the day off. We decided to head down to Bryce after the dentist. We arrived at the campground at about 2:30. The first thing on the agenda was to set up camp.  read more »

The theme of this week was injuries for Angela. Tuesday Angela bruised her fingers and ankles playing Frisbee. Wednesday Karl accidentally whacked her in the nose with his elbow while watching a movie. Thursday Karl accidentally hit her with a door and poked her in the eye when he didn't see her in the laundry room. Early Friday morning he made her jump a mile high when he scared her coming out of the restroom. And then Saturday she almost got eaten to death by bugs. No injuries to report for Sunday yet, but there's still half an hour ;)  read more »

There wasn't a lot worth mentioning this last week until about Friday--we worked, Karl played in his second and final Ultimate Frisbee game of the season, we ate food and ran a lot...  read more »
