Homemaker . . what?

Those who know me well know that I have never been much of the "homemaker" type . Never the most organized, not much of a creative cook, and I really don't enjoy arts and crafts or sewing . 

But guess what I did ?


I started cooking/baking a little bit : ) I am not super into crazy, fancy cooking . I love your normal, basic, American dishes . Mashed potatoes, chocolate ice cream, and white bread . We have had a homemade meal almost every day for the last couple of weeks and I made rolls! They weren't perfect and baking here is a little different than Utah, but they were still pretty good . My cousin's kids LOVED them. : ) Direct quote "I like Lindsay because she's a good baker . " Awww .








I love rolls. especially these ones.

Now those people who have lived with me will admit that I do not keep my living area the very cleanest, to put it nicely . But guess what ? You will be surprised to hear that Paul and I probably now have a cleaner apartment / living space than any of you . This is largely due to the fact that I am very afraid of leaving something on the floor and picking up later and finding a bug in it, but still . Our apartment is almost constantly clean . Dishes are always put away, clothes are always off of the floor, closet is organized, and we vacuum and clean things like twice a week . And it's actually pretty nice .

This is probably the extent of the homemaker in me for now, but it's kind of fun. If you haven't seen our finished apartment, Take A Look!

Luv, Lindsay

We love our mothers.


Happy Mother's Day . . especially to our wonderful moms. :)
















We love you. Thank you for all that you do, all you have taught us, and the love and support you continue to give us. We could never have gotten to this point without you. We miss you!

Lots of love, Paul and Lindsay

Sometimes life gives you lemons . . Literally.

The other day, Paul and I were at the mall, enjoying some wonderful fries and chocolate milkshakes . (Did you know McDonald's has the best chocolate milkshakes? I didn't until this trip. They are so good!)

These girls all wearing white t-shirts that said "life" came over to our table . One stepped forward and said "Hi, I'm life," and put a lemon on our table . And walked away .


Unfortunately the lemon wasn't quite enough to make lemonade with .


 But it was pretty cool. And they just continued around the mall, giving people lemons . Probably wondering what they would actually do with them .




Both of us thought that it was definitely something we would have expected from people in Provo . :P

Luv, Lindsay
