#youshouldbejealous

I think i'm the luckiest Toone child because I get to be with siblings more than anyone else -- pretty sure. so HA!

K well I had to take a test on Friday so I was late to the game against UCF so when I finished I walked to Aaron's dorm, dropped my stuff off and we walked to the game together. There were 4 minutes left until half-time so he came and hung out with me! and we took a pic :) Love us. P.S. the game was AWESOME!!! I mean we still had some really really dumb embarrassing moments but also some really stellar moments! Geezzzzz... why couldn't we have done that last week?!

On Saturday there was a luncheon for the Arizona chapter Alumni something-or-other... meaning FREE LUNCH! So we went of course--- why pass up free food?! There was a raffle for free garb and my name got picked! i got a towel and a candy bar. And we took a picture. of course :) Look how cute and happy we are!!

Finally Saturday night was the RS Broadcast. I really wanted to go to it in SLC so I asked Kathryn if she wanted to come with! We went and it was great -- minus the parts we were trying so hard to stay awake during! And we were photographed at least three times --- by different photographers. Sooo I'm pretty sure you should look for us in the November Ensign. We'll be there.

P.S. I'm so glad I'm the only one in our family with a life -- according to this blog.

Our annual excercise

Well a record was broken this weekend. We had three Toone kids hike Mt. Timp! In fact --- I think this is the first time we've had 3 Toone kids all in Utah! Go us! Well, the hike was great! Aaron turned into Mr. mountain goat and scaled the mountain without even stopping to breathe. Kathryn and I on the other hand...... we had a bit more trouble. :) We took it nice and slow. We would separate sometimes but we'd always end up back together. Luanne and Scott did great too! Scott settled in at the back of the pack but he made it! Three Banzai's for Scott! Banzai! Banzai! Banzai!

There were times that is was pretty chilly but for the most part it was a beautiful day and a great day for a hike! It started to get cloudy and a few sprinkles hit us on the way down but a great hike nonetheless. There was quite a bit of snow/glaciers that we had to walk over, and that included slipping on most of them. ahem, Kathryn. We also parked 0.7 miles away....crowded. Which made the total hike 15.4 miles. We started a little after 7 and finished a little after 4.

Kathryn Aaron and I did hike all the way to the top! We called the sisters and Dad for his birthday :)

Kathryn hasn't been to the top since 1999... that's a loooooong time. But she did it! Yay! This was a first for Aaron! Go brother!!
