Climbing

While we were in Durham we were able to go climbing! We miss the climbing gyms in Utah and are in search for a good one out here that isn't too expensive!  Our arms definitely noticed the lack of climbing for the past few months but we still had a good time.

Duke University

Todd and I were able to head down to North Carolina this past weekend to experience Duke University Men's Basketball! Thanks to Nelson for getting us tickets and letting us stay at his place! 
Duke is an amazing team to watch even though they totally dominated good ol' Rick Majerus' team! The Blue Devil fans and students are crazy!  They have chants and cheers for everything! So fun!! 

The campus is beautiful and the buildings are incredible!! Unfortunately it was raining so we didn't spend too much time walking around. 


 And of course we had to see the medical school and hospital! 
Thanks Nelson! We will definitely be visiting again!

Washington DC Temple

We finally made it up to the Washington DC temple to do a session.  
We got there in the afternoon so by the time we left it was getting dark.  
The temple is beautiful inside and out!!   
(Next time, we'll get a picture with us in it!!)

Thanksgiving

This year for Thanksgiving, Todd and I were in charge of the cooking! Scary, I know but everything turned out wonderful! Jason, Shaylee and Zoey came from West Virginia, Nelson came from North Carolina, Ben came from Charlottesville, and Taylor came from Utah!!  We had a full house but definitely enjoyed the company. 
Todd was in charge of the Turkey and he did a great job
Our parents back home sent us this beautiful centerpiece!
We hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving!!

Richmond Marathon and Maymont

Our friends, Jason and Shaylee (and their baby Zoey) came and stayed with us this last weekend.  Shaylee ran in the Richmond Half Marathon on Saturday and did an awesome job! After the race, we took them to Maymont where Zoey loved seeing all the animals!

University of Richmond

Since we've been here, we've heard how beautiful the University of Richmond's campus is.  We finally went and walked around and we definitely agree.

Maymont and The Dooley's Mansion

Monticello
 

 Carter Mountain for some apple cider and donuts! 
Thanks for a fun weekend Bryan and Ann!
