BYU Intramurals

We decided to go watch our ward intramural kickball game tonight and I'm so glad we went! It was so funny watching people play kickball with such passion...I kind of felt like I was back in elementary school! The rules were kind of...weird to say the least. It took the whole game to figure out how to play kickball BYU style. Some rules from BYU Intramural Kickball:

• Outs don't really count; outs just kick you off the base. 3 outs ≠ end of an inning. Once you've scored 8 points, the inning is over.
• If you had runners on any of the bases at the end of an inning, they returned to that base when your team was up to kick again.
• If you kick a home run, you don't really get a home run. You only get to go to second base.
• Girls get two pitches, boys get one.
• It takes 5 refs to officiate.

I think we'll be going to more games in the future, followed by Frozen Yogurt. So, so good! Cheap entertainment, right?

Out for a Ride

Yesterday was such a beautiful day and I couldn't pass up getting my bike out and going for a ride! I rode over to Katie's place along the Provo River Trail with my camera in hand to document the ride...
I love riding along the Provo river. Recap of the ride:
• There was a weird guy catching snakes along the river for fun and letting kids pet them. Weird.
• Two guys 'river rafting' down the river
• Almost hit 2 pedestrians (but it wasn't my fault!)
• Thinking about September 11th as I pass by the memorial
• Thought about joining the kids at the skate/bike park--or not.
• Got weirded out by the crazies at the KOA

I love spring in Provo!

Provo Dress Code

Katie and I and a couple friends met up at a boutique last night in Provo to check out the handmade goods scene...we clearly didn't get the dress code memo. I think we were the only 4 people that didn't have on a hippie headband, a mini skirt and leggings, and crazy platform sandals. Apparently hippie headbands are the cool thing to wear in Provo...
Most of the girls looked like the girl in the lower left photo...tight headband with a big UGE mushroom-poofy thing going on with their hair. I didn't quite understand, so I thought that I'd try the "look" out today at work:
Umm...not so much. Not for me.
