Friday, April 9, 2010. Our Sunny (NOT) trip to Cali. HIKING TO HALF DOME. OUR "INSPIRATION"- OUR JAPANESE FRIENDS. We were young, naive, full of promise. "Let's get out of this crappy Utah weather and go to sunny California! We'll do a road trip through Yosemite, Monterey, San Fran. We'll come home with a suntan! Weather Check Day 1: Cali 70, Utah 27. Weather Check Day 3: Yosemite 25, Utah 70. Weather Check Day 5: Cali 45, Utah 55. False adverstising at it's finest. You should be ashamed Arnold. So sorry...

Tessa's Tidbits: Making Good Time
http://whitematthewsfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2011/05/making-good-time.html
Tuesday, May 3, 2011. They were real troupers. Especially the time we had them hanging from a rope with a 100 foot drop to go, and made them promise to keep their rooms clean and come home by curfew before we would let them down the rest of the way. Ah yes, those were the good times. Then we followed up that with Whitney being honored as a scholar athlete at Utah State. Only athletes with a high GPA are honored. Whitney was part of an elite group and it was a very proud day. Nothing much else to add for ...

Tessa's Tidbits: November 2010

Sunday, November 7, 2010. Fishing Season Officially Ends. Oh, this is bad. Dad called tonight and asked me to update my blog. When a senior citizen (sorry Dad) thinks you are behind on your blog, you are REALLY behind. More importantly, why would I go for 4 months without updating my blog? What is wrong with me? We stopped and saw the Mormon trail, shared trivia about trappers, beaver hunting and the Gold Rush in California, and shared our favorite western storylines from movies and books of old. I'm an ...

http://whitematthewsfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 28, 2009. Fall in the Air. I'm learning to love football more. Since it's about all you can do in Ephraim on a Saturday (if you don't own four wheelers), you plan your day around it. I'm ready to get a foam Badger hat and paint myself blue. I seriously considered shaving Dazy and dying her the blue Snow College logo. Having fun with new friends.finally feeling a part of things here. One more semester away from my new degree. Hangin' in there. Tuesday, September 8, 2009. Fall in the Air.

Tessa's Tidbits: Hibernation
http://whitematthewsfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2011/04/hibernation.html
Wednesday, April 6, 2011. Yes, I have been in hibernation for the long, hard winter. Deep depression. No fishing. No trips overseas. No new projects. Just "nose to the grindstone", working and raising kids, paying the bills kind of existence. I've heard it called "real life" - I call it "somebody just kill me now". Let me illustrate: Just put any name in our household to fill in the blanks. Then repeat the scenario a bajillion times (Obama doesn't even know how high that number is). I wanted to attach ou...

Sunday, October 25, 2009. Halloween Cookie Decorating Contest. The results are in! It was the best contest yet with new, young blood coming in as the darkhorses and stealing the show. In 30 years of this tradition, why had no one ever thought of making a long ponytail out of red licorice? Lils stole the show. Thanks to Paige for hosting the event yet again.

Tessa's Tidbits: January 2010
http://whitematthewsfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 31, 2010. Looking Back Over a Decade. Even though the past few years have been hard, I have learned to appreciate the compensatory blessings that came our way: Our children our alive and happy. I have almost concluded my degree in Art. I have found great joy in simplifying my life. I am beginning to trust love again. I am a kindler and gentler version of the me I used to be. And for the record, I stopped caring that much about what my hair looks like. You can love or leave it. I'm an adve...
