Killing time before class

Warning: Long Ramblings of Megan

I thought I would blog a little before going to class.
First let me start off with my last class that I just had. It was aerobics and today was 80's day. which meant that if you dressed up you get extra credit. But I of course am auditing the class so it doesn't matter but I can never pass up an opportunity to wear a cut up sweater and a side pony and dance like its 1986! It was so much fun! 80's music defiantly gets your heart pumping and makes you want to do the running man, sprinkler, the charlie brown and cowboy it up!

On Tuesday was Mardi Gras. A holiday that goes often uncelebrated. I don't care if your Catholic or not it's a fun day!  David and I had a little get together at our house. We had Big Band music playing in the background and everyone got beads and masks. I also made a King Cake, the traditional Mardi Gras cake (Thanks PartyLand for the cake mix!), and some really good cupcakes. 
To me Mardi Gras is just a good excuse to have friends over hang out and play games. 
I have two goals with future Mardi Gras' though
1. I will make it to New Orleans 
2. I will through a huge masquerade ball 

My next holiday that will be a lot of fun is St. Patrick's Day. If you want to join me in the ritual of watching Boondocks Saints and eating corned beef and cabbage just let me know :)

Something else we did this last week was go to the Timpanogos (sp?)Temple.  I love this temple out of the ones I have been in (which only include St. George, Laie Hawaii and Jordan River) it is my favorite!
It was such a nice day.
I hope to soon add Oakland Temple to my list. I'll be going there in June for my friends wedding! (so excited for you Laurel!)
A goal I have for Temples is:
1. to visit all that are in UT
2. and to visit the temple in the area that we vacation if possible

So thats all I have time for right now. Check back later though when I add pictures to this when I get to my home computer!
