A Much Needed Break

Greg and I went on our first "official" date in a while!! Although it was very random and thrown together at the last minute, we had a ton of fun! To start out our date we bought a pizza and ate it at one of the parks here in Provo. Luckily it has been warm lately so we had beautiful warm weather. Afterward we drove to the Nicklecade and had a lot of fun challenging each other to all sorts of games. In the end I won :) But not by much!
We then took a trip to Coldstone for some delicious ice cream! (Greg's favorite thing to eat!) Right after we finally got to watch the new Batman movie! We both loved it. Greg left the movie theater feeling like Batman.
It was such a fun and needed night. Both of us have been stressed with school, especially Greg, and it was nice to have an evening where school did not matter.
I am a fan of date nights!

Volleyball Time

I want to congratulate my amazing sister Katelyn on finishing her senior year of volleyball! Greg and I were able to go watch her play in her last state tournament. She played very well and I could not be more proud! She did a great job at keeping her team together and put all her effort out there. I know the feeling of being in such a stressful situation, but it is such a great experience.
It was fun to listen to Greg try to figure out the rules of volleyball! He came up with his own position names for each of the players so he could understand what was going on! Gotta love him!

Clarissa Jane Carrio

So I am a little late on this post, but it is not any less important! We have a new adorable member of the Pagel family! Clarissa Jane was born on July 18! She is such a cute baby! Because they live in Texas we have not seen her in person yet. :( Every time Greg and I skype with his sister Leslie and Clarissa, we get more and more excited to meet her. Luckily we get to see her during Thanksgiving! :) It has been a lot of fun to receive pictures in the mail and on our phones! She looks beautiful just like her mom!
We cannot wait to see her soon!

Pirate Donuts!

Speaking of pirate treasure....I am not sure what got into us, but Courtney, Jess and I decided that it would be a good idea to dress like pirates and go stand in line at Krispy Kreme on National Talk Like a Pirate Day. If you dressed like a pirate they gave you a free dozen glazed donuts. How could I pass that up? Although we stood in line for over 3 hours....(Ya I know...CRAZY!!) it was definitely worth it! Now I can say that I have stood in line for donuts.

 Court & Jess all dressed up!

 Yes I am a Pirate!

 The line once we got inside...It was about this long outside of the building too!
