Jeopardy Test



Last Wednesday I took the test to become a contestant on Jeopardy. I think they only do this test once a year so I thought I would give it a shot. It was tough, but it was a lot of fun. Here's a sampling of the questions:

  1. THIS "WATER MUSIC" COMPOSER IS BURIED IN POETS' CORNER AT WESTMINSTER ABBEY
  2. THIS BASIC AERODYNAMIC FORCE ACTS ON A WING, PUTTING GREATER PRESSURE ON ITS LOWER SURFACE THAN ITS UPPER
  3. "THE LOST COLONY" DRAMA IS AN ANNUAL EVENT AT FORT RALEIGH NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE ON THIS ISLAND
  4. WHEN THE TRANSCONTINENTAL RAILROAD WAS COMPLETED IN 1869, THIS CALIFORNIA CITY WAS ITS WESTERN TERMINUS
(Answers are at the bottom of the post)





(Answers 1. Handel, 2. Lift, 3. Roanoke, 4. Sacramento)

Grove Creek Hike


Last Saturday I went on a little hike up Grove Creek Canyon (Pleasant Grove) with my uncle Rob and my cousin Ben. It was a pretty hike and we even saw a golden eagle fly right in front of us across to the other side of the canyon. Here are some more photos:

More Asher

Kung Fu Baby




Speaking of Asher, I just learned that Asher jumped from the 233rd most popular boy name to the 25th most popular name for boys. What happened!?

JEOPARDY!

One of our favorite things to do is play Jeopardy. The other night we were over at Celeste & Spencer's place playing Jeopardy and a question came up about howling. We all started howling for some reason and Celeste's dog Jack came and joined us.

We Moved!

Jessica did a great job of packing everything, and we had a lot of help with loading and unloading from family and our ward.


We moved to this apartment building in Pleasant Grove by Macey's

We dig the dishwasher.


We also like being able to pick up HD channels with our "rabbit-ears" antenna. We watched the Yankees win the World Series in high definition.


And we're all ready for the baby!

Real Salt Lake Game part 2

While my brother Reuben was visiting, we went to a Real Salt Lake vs. Chicago Fire game. It was our first MLS game and was a lot of fun.
