day of FIRSTS

today was a very busy and exciting day! i woke up early to go to luau practices and it was my first time being able to "semi" do poi balls. then, mauri and i went to our first colombia practice for fiesta, it was exciting, but we didn't do anything. then mauri went to eat (for my first time) with our friend sharyn wada. she's super cool. then came the cool part.
first i put on a bunch of layers and funky looking stuff to get ready to go out and play in the snow. in this picture i'm using three layers of pants, 3 layers of shirts, 3 layers of socks (one of those layers being one of mauri's long socks), 2 layers of gloves, a beanie, my 2 hoods, and mauri's old shoes (that wouldn't make my feet wet).

then mauri and i walked to the field next to the bean museum and i made my first snow angel. it was kinda hard because i first had to lie down so that it didn't look too mutu. (mauri needed to help me there). but here's what it looked like.
finally i got to make my first snowman. and here he is... (notice his hair... isn't that just the funniest thing?? it was my idea, thank you. =P mauri was joking around and saying how that's how his hair is gonna look when he comes back from his mission-- with the whole part and all) i think it looks very nice for it being my first snowman.

we walked to the bean, but we were too tired to look around, so we just went home, bocha-ed, and then we went to eat at l&l (we were dying for some chicken katsu). then we went for my first time to the progressive power tumbling, but then we weren't wearing the appropriate clothes so we had to go someplace else. instead we went to his brother's friends house and we played with his brother and friend (for my first time), rockband. it was fun! afterward we went into their RV and watched, for the first time, imagine that. (it's a cute movie, by the way, nell and meags)

i came home and went to sleep. but it really was... a WONDERFUL day... of firsts! =)

  2. Sounds like a fun day of "firsts". My memory of snow angels is Cami and Erwin Ad at our house behind what is now Orem Distribution Center and Missionary Mall.
