So, My life has been very blessed. I am grateful for my friends and family. Anyway, Our journey to Cali was a blast. I especially liked longboarding in Santa monica and Venice beach, and of course Disneyland. Summer school started This week, i just need to push trough so i can graduate in December. My big class is my law class for the Communication Department. It is interesting stuff, it just sucks becasuse there is a lot required to pass the class. The next 2 Months wil be crazy busy, A million weddings to attend, most importantly Mac and Jaime's, school, camping, boating, scuba certification. It seems like every weekend something is going on. So i find out on June 1st if i have to get PCL surgery on my knee. If that happens then i will be out of comission for 8 weeks then in rehab for 6 months. What ever happens i just need to get my knee as strong as possible for the events the rest of my life will bring. BIG SOFTBALL WIN!!!! On tuesday the Space Cowboys, thats our co ed softball team, won its 1st game. Now we are 1-2 looking for a big winning streak. Great game play by all the players. Well, thats about all i have for now. RWH!!!

Cali, the spring trip
So, here's an overview of the trip, from my view of course. Well, Jeff, Hank, Jake, Dana, Shanda, and Alexis showed up at my apartment at like 5:30 or there abouts. The first like hour of the ride Hank and Jake were rockin' in the back, which is a slight understatement of what was going on. After that things calmed down because they basically fell asleep. Anyway skipping pass the 7 hour drive we made it to Los Vegas, I went to bed while most everyone else went to the strip. Thus the next day I was the driver to take us to Disneyland. We had lots of fun, skipping out on most all lines because of Jeff and his wheelchair. We hit most all the rides that we wanted to. It was fun. Jeff then drove us to San Diego, we got there around 12:30 and just crashed. In the morning Jake, Jeff, Shanda, and I went to the San Diego Temple. Afterwards we went to the San Diego Zoo. It was pretty cool. So now it is Saturday night and we split up, I go to visit Dru and her in laws and we played some games. Sunday we tried to make it to Church with Dru but go lost, so we just headed up to some beeches in LA. We laid out on the beech and then did a little longboarding. It was great. Then we left to Los Vegas, I drove and it was late. Luckily, Alexis stayed awake and kept me awake. If not for her we would have been off the road. On Monday we slept in and then came home. It was a great trip. Here are more photos.

Summer is here
So guys it has been awhile, sorry last week was my last week of classes and now I am just finishing up finals. I got two left religion and CAD finals. I cannot wait, it won't come soon enough. So guys there is this great song I just found like on Saturday, it is called Runaround Sue by Dion and the Belmonts, he is the one that sings The Wanderer too. You definitely need to check it out it has got an awesome beat. So you guys should be coming up on finals or this is your last week right? Good luck I hope that it all goes well. Hopefully you don't get too stressed out like I do.
So I think that we should plan to go camping sometime this summer, or ya know Mac we should plan a weekend to go to the Cabin and fix it up a bit, that would be so much fun. But I guess it would need to happen before the end of July and after the end of June, hmm there is just too much to do this summer and not nearly enough time. I often find myself wishing that I had some sort of machine that gave me more hours in the day or extra days. I would add extra days to the weekends, and I would always be adding more days to my camping trips.
Well guys I have to get studying for another test, hope you guys do well with yours, oh and keep me up to date on how your softball team is doing, if you ever play on the weekends, I would come and watch. Well until next time ta um ea boa

Harvest and Sell
"Ho hoo, Mangos. Booya!"
Who on earth would say something like that you ask? No, it's not a hungry Brazilian, but my roomie William Wilford Thorup IV. Or Will Will 4 as I affectionately call him. Anyway, Will Will was on his computer one day while I was in the kitchen doing my homework when all of a sudden the strangest tune kept playing from his speakers. It sounded like a xylophone got hitched to a string orchestra and they were trying to make sweet harmonies together. Well, as you can see from the immaculate mental picture I just created for you, it was highly annoying. But, instead of turning to violence and hucking my cell phone at Billy Will's computer, and tried to tune it out. But it didn't work! After a few minutes I found myself tapping my foot to the notes and actually humming along with it. After the realization and the gag reflex passed, I started to sing the words out loud so that Willers could enjoy them too. The name of the song is called Harvest and Sell, and incidentally, those are the only words to it as well. So Wild Will and I started to freestyle rap to this crappy tune and had ourselves a darn tootin good time.
So, if you're ever bored out of your mind and are looking at Facebook, be sure to add the application "Farm Town" you'll not be dissapointed.
Harvest and Sell everyone!!!!!!!!!!

I am going to punch Punxsutawney Phil
Ok, what's the dealio? It's been Spring for almost one full month now, and we've been punked by the weather almost every day of it.
I think someone needs to fire old Phil cause that furry dude don't know what's going on anymore. I have a suggestion, why don't we use KSL's Live 5 Weather Watch HD as our new forecaster of spring? I'm pretty sure that satellites and and computers would be a little more accurate than a crusty old mammal that lives in a tree stump for months at a time.
Anyway, Spring is most def not here, and that is not cool. But I have faith that the sun will shine through in time for our Softball games.
PS, softball is one of the scariest games I've ever played. I don't know what it is, but there is something about a huge hard ball flying at my face at freeway speeds that's a little disconcerting. Maybe it's the fact that Jaime is the source behind those speeding projectiles and it's slightly intimidating, but never fear! For I shall do my best to be an animal on that first base. Booya!!
Also, is everyone aware that school is almost over? I hope so because I am so done with Cache Valley, I've been up here long enough. It was good while it lasted and I'm going to miss the small time school atmosphere that is not found at the U, but I'm ready to move in with my new hot roomie, (that's a reference to Jaime if you didn't get it).
Life is great, I now have 5 degrees of movement in my foot, which is half of what it needs to be for normal walking conditions, but I'm working hard at Physical Therapy and things are looking bright for me.
Well, as Tigger says, TTFN or in laman's terms, Ta Ta For Now

Easter!!
Well its almost easter. That means spring is here, even if it doesn't look like it outside, and school is almost out. Only 3 more weeks left in the semester. I cant wait to be done. THis week has been pretty uneventful. Im looking forward to the eggolympics at Jill's and some good times with the boys. I am getting knee surgery on the 21st. hopefully that will fix all the problems in my knee. Then i can go back to pushing it to the limit. Hopefully i will get some great internships for the summer. Keep your fingers crossed for me! Im signing up for our coed softball league today. Dumb Chase isn't joining us for the fun, but i still love him anyway. Hopefully Mac's foot will heal enough for him to stand at 1st base. I am applying for graduation next tuesday!!! I can see the light at the end of the tunnel, i just need to make it there now. Thats pretty much all that is going on right now. See you all this weekend!!!
