Merry Tropical Christmas!

Since there isn't a Florida Christmas for us this year I thought it would be fun to at least pretend we went to a tropical place. We took our snowman friend and recorded the fun!

Tour of the Apartment

We moved into our new apartment this week. It is much grander in every way. Thanks to those who helped us move, namely: Brandon, Caleb West, Jake Slater, Gio Velez, and Beth Ward. Here is the apartment tour of our new place, plus some extra footage of fun in the snow. Merry Christmas!(oh and as Becky pointed out, it is only 4 minutes- just disregard the last minute of black screen)

NEWS!

So very sad news in Provo, Yesterday the Provo Tabernacle burned down. I guess it caught fire in the middle of the night. I feel blessed that I got to perform in it just last Sunday and none of my equipment was burned up. http://www.ksl.com/?nid=148&sid=13693318

O Holy Night

I would like to thank those who posted on my last post. I really appreciate the support! :)


SO a couple of weeks ago I played o holy night at a fireside. This is a recording from a rehearsal. I tried to make it have just sound but couldn't figure it out. I made it low quality video though so that it is fuzzy and you just listen to the sound. Tonight I played a duet with an oboe at the stake fireside. I played the flute part of My Shepherd Will SUpply my Need with the stake choir. It turned out very nice. And I got to play with the orchestra. Not the best orchestra in the world, but it was still phun!

Gospel Jr.

So today we had our friends Beth and Brett over and we watched "The Mouth of Babes". Then to compete with that we watched our own "Gospel Jr" made by Chrissy and Randy, a Sunday favorite in our house. Then they told us about this other cute video on Youtube called Kid History. Its pretty hilarious. Tell me what you think about it if you like it. :)

The Newest Rigby

We stopped by the LDS Hospital tonight in Salt Lake to say hello to our newest niece, baby Quincy. I hope that I'm spelling her name right. The roads were devastatingly packed with snow, but the poor weather will never stop us from being among the first to welcome in a new Rigby. Here are some of the top pics of the night:

Babysitting Abby

So a few days ago I got to babysit Abby Gonzalez! This was the second time I have gotten to have fun with her. The first time was several months ago. She sat and slept the whole time. This time we decided to copy Chrissy, sort of, and make a movie together! That helped us to get to know each other a little better since she didn't seem to remember the last time we hung out.
So here is the product of our labors!(I ended up having to upload it on youtube because it never seems to work on blogs anymore.)

Kim Kim KIM!

Thanks for the fun hairthingy Kim. I wore it on sunday and it was a nice addition to my do. You're the Best!

Baby Claire Loveland

Yesterday we received joyous news. News that was very pleasing to hear: our good buddies, Ross and Katie Loveland, had a baby! And not just any baby, either. They had Claire Danielle Loveland, a beautiful baby girl with a green bow glued to her head. Here is a video dedicated to baby Claire:



We hung out for a little while with Ross, Katie, and Claire and got some good pics.





This is my attempt to show that the computer monitor was easily the same size as or bigger than the TV. That, in my personal opinion, is ridiculous.





Debbie is very happy whenever she can hold a baby that doesn't cry.


Ross is a father. Incredible.


Katie is a mother. Incredible.


Together, they are an incredible family.


This picture shows off the incredible part in my incredible hair. Incredible.


I'll be a father someday as well.


Claire had a cool frown going on.


And check out the spread! Man, sign me up for having a baby if it means some country fried steak.

Back to a game after 3 (or 4) years!

So this last friday Sabrina (my fellow masters student friend with the same advisor as me) called me up and asked if I wanted her football ticket. I said YES and was excited to attend another game since I haven't been to one since before the mission. I made sure to take my camera since dad sent me an email last week with detailed instructions on how to blog (bring my camera everywhere and take pictures while thinking of creative ways to blog it).


The Game wasn't the most fun game since we totally smashed UNLV 55-7 (they only scored in the last 45 seconds) but it was fun enough! About 20 minutes before the game I found some friends to go to the game with (Eric was working at Fanzz). I thought I was supposed to wear white since it was a home game, but was wrong. Everyone was wearing blue.






I made sure to yell and scream and get the most out of the day (I had nothing else really to do that day so I stayed for the ENTIRE game)


And we got to sing the fight song a whole lot (about 8 times to be more exact) and I still remembered all the words. I had a video, but I cant get it to upload. Maybe later. Or never.


And on Friday I went to take some soil samples and we saw WILD HORSES! So this extra pic is for you mom!

QUIDDITCH

On Oct 23 we set up with some friends to play QUIDDITCH!!! It was so much fun. Well everything was going perfectly according to plan and then the day of, it poured rain for the first time really in months. It was cold and wet, but we played anyway and it was worth it. About 20 people still showed up even in the rain.

Debbie on her broomstick


Eric on his broom stick


Eric putting down boundaries to catch the snitch. We had a penny as the snitch and it was placed in the boxed area in the grass. The seeker played the game normally as a chaser for the first 15 minutes of the game, and then had one minute to find the penny. If no one found it in that minute, they then had to wait another 5 minutes and then had another minute and so on until it was found. Debbie was the first seeker and she found it on the second round winning the game for team Hufflepuff.

This is Eric preparing for the game


And Debbie preparing for the game


This is the best we've got of an action shot



And this is us all wet after the game. Would have taken pictures during it if it hadn't been so wet.


Our thighs all got really sore from holding the broom there so long but it was well worth it for the amount of fun we had. We plan on playing again before the new Harry Potter movie comes out.

Free Lasik

I entered a video contest to win free Lasik eye surgery and I really want to win and apparently the way to do that is for people to go online to this website: http://www.hoopesvision.com/contest/video.html, watch the video and then click the "like" button underneath it. Mine should be one of the first ones, entitled "Lasik Contest Entry!.mov"

Thank you, good people. If I win free Lasik I promise to see more clearly for everyone!

New Post!

Ok, Im sorry that the latest update is slow. That is because I haven't taken any new pictures in a while and I haven't really done anything exciting except for sit in the car, sit at work, sit in classes, sit in my room, sit in the kitchen, etc. YOu get the point. Actually I did go to a Zumba class yesterday and it was a LOT of fun! Kim took these snazzy pictures of me too when we were skyping. This is my office. Its a little blah.

Marci Has Started a Trend

Several weeks ago the actress Debbie Rigby was seen wearing a new stylish bag. Reporters cannot find the origin of the bag but she has been seen wearing it all over the city. If anyone has information on where she got this bag, please call 888-901-1234 so that mass production and distribution of this bag may begin.
