Fun, Fun, Fun

Time to update you all on what has been going on in the Larsen Family (or more likely, just type it down for myself to read and pat myself on the back for doing something semi-productive). This spring has been really good so far. Jesse and I definitely enjoyed the Easter weekend and the warm weather. We actually laid out on a blanket for a little while and got tan (well, Jesse got tan). And now the weather is back to normal, cold and windy :( But I guess that just makes it easier to appreciate the warm weather.

We've done a few exciting things over the past couple months, Jesse and I went to his first Jazz game against the Denver Nuggets. The Jazz totally dominated so it was awesome! I was such a mean wife and made Jesse get t-shirts to commemorate the occasion.





Yeah it was pretty sweet. And it just so happened that this pretty cool car was in front of our hotel...



Yeah, part of me thinks that seeing the car was cooler for Jesse than the Jazz game, but we both had fun.

We've also made some serious improvements to the house... 
Jesse, Rick, and Kollin putting a window in the basement.
I wish there was a before-before picture, but just imagine florescent lights, wood paneling, the central heating unit in the middle of the room, and cement floors.

The After-Before

Ta-Da!

Full on Man Cave
And now I'm not scared to go in the basement! The first movie we watched was Real Steel and Jesse was totally enjoying his investment in a new sound system.

Jesse is still loving his calling in YM. I think he is learning a little patience working with 12 year olds but I know he has so much fun with the boys. I'm loving Primary more every week. I have to say my favorite part is when I get to go to Nursery for singing time. All the kids are {SO} cute! And a few of them, their first words in nursery have been the names of songs, especially the bumble bee song. So cute. 

All in all, life is pretty good here in Rupert, and we are so blessed to be able to enjoy it all.
