1. Watching "Where the Wild Things Are." This is not a highlight because it was an exceptional show but because it made us laugh so much. It was bizarre... we don't reccommend it...but it was kinda funny watching it together.
2. Church. We felt like we started to get to know some people in our ward. The sacrament talk was great and was given by my new visiting teaching companion, Robyn Becker. She's pregnant, but currently the only other woman in the ward without children. So for 4 months we are kind-of in the same boat. She teaches biology and seminary so we got to talk a little about teaching stuff which I always enjoy.
3. Our walk along the Concho River. This river winds back and forth throughout the city but we went to the part that passes through downtown.
Isn't he handsome! I sure think so.
San Angelo Visitors' Center
Bret made me look right at the sun! Squinty eyes!
There are rams all over the city painted different ways. They remind me of a town in Germany that had painted cows all over.
Cool area by the Museum of Art. Bret's favorite was the checkers board in the rock.
Right outside the museum.
We took this picture of TX for those of you who are still wondering where San Angelo is. We liked the pictures!4. On Memorial day I went for a great run in the middle of the day and realized how lucky we are to live in the greatest part of town. The neighborhood we live in and those adjacent to ours are really nice. Most of San Angelo is nice, but we are grateful to be where we are. In the afternoon our friends, the Kings, came over to our apartment complex for some swimming. We didn't bring our camera with us at ALL that day, but we wish we would have. Their son, Matthew (2yrs) is adorable and is becoming my new little buddy. He was a little nervous about the water at first but ended up loving it. Then it was off to a little spot by the less popular of the two beautiful lakes here for some tin foil dinners and crock pot desserts. The Beckers were nice enough to invite the Kings and us along with the Clemens, the Skidmores, the Strattons and the Hootens. We look forward to getting to know all those families even better. Again, wish we had our cameras because it was a beautiful site and such a perfect way to spend Memorial day. The only note we'd make for next time: hitch a ride with someone who has a truck... the off-roading drive into the spot for dinner was a little rough on the Kings' car!
Here's a video from our river walk:
