Is Japan ready for the Dangerfords?

So we are "officially" going to Japan! Well I don't know if it will be for real until we arrive in Japan. But we had our interviews and WE PASSED. We are not exactly sure when we are going or where we will be living but they say mid-May and we hope to find out soon what city we will be in. But I am very confident that all of Japan looks like this and will feel like I am living in a video game.

But in all seriousness I need to talk to all anyone that have lived away for months, especially in Asian countries, I am kinda getting nervous! But at the same time very excited, we are VERY ready to leave Provo and have an adventure. 

My wisdom....teeth?

I have to get my wisdom teeth out on the 23rd. This is something that I have been putting off for weeks because I am terrified. Why am I terrified you ask, heres why.

1. When peter got his wisdom teeth out they forgot a root and a few months after the surgery it just popped out!!!! thats filthy!

2. I had to drive shanna to her dentists one night after her surgery to get her dry sockets packed with medicated cotton, and the girl was in pain. Lets face it if shanna couldn't handle it there is no way my childlike body would be able to endure the agony. 

My last reason and biggest fear to end up with a "Steve Keslers wisdom teeth infection."  No one is really sure how it happened but all I know is that I dont want to go to the hospital and I sure dont want a goider. Steve if you have any tips to avoid the goider let me know.

 

Sometimes I love the Snow!

We are so excited to come home on Tuesday and see you all! We have been trying to enjoy Christmas as much as possible here before we leave and now that Peter is done with school we have tons of time to do Christmas things.

The weekend went as follows:

Heres Peter making the best sugar cookies of all time. Thanks kizzy for getting me the recipe.

The snow has really made it feel like Christmas. No one here puts up Christmas lights so I was really welcoming to the snow when it came.  It made it feel like Christmas.  

Heres Peter Sliding on the snow in the empty streets, I get too nervous to slide due to a broom hockey accident.  

I think it snowed like 10 inches that afternoon.... thats probably not true but it felt like it.

Here we are out to eat to celebrate everyone being done with school, you would think that they were going to die the way they were talking about their final week at school. What babies, especially you Manasseh no one feels sorry for you!   

Well we hope that you all have been enjoying the holidays as much as we have. Oh to top off this Christmas weekend Peter actually  convinced me into opening all of our presents, it was great!  

We will see you all in a couple of days!

ps: shelly we must make plans so that I can see you before you leave to Mexico.

I LOVE Having Him Around!

Over Thanksgiving weekend I got maybe a little to used to Peter being around.  I don't know about the rest of you but due to our scheduals we get to see each other for a handful of hours during the week, even our weekend is spent apart!  But last weekend was amazing. It started out with a walk to the duck pond to feed the ducks, they were very thankful for the snack!

Then we had dinner with family and friends, thanks to everyone for the help and for not commenting on the fact that everything that I made was a little "off."  

Dinner was followed with a nap and a great drive to Heber to let our bellies rest.  This is Peter and Lachelle at the gas station in Heber. I think diet coke from other cities tastes much better than Provo diet coke.  After the Drive we actually convinced Peter and Manasseh to go see Twilight, this was round two for Lachelle and I. I can't get enough vampire in my life. ps. they both thought it wasn't as bad as they thought it would be.

Then on black Friday Peter and I went up to Salt Lake just the two of us to do some Christmas shopping and see the temple lights.  

Needless to say it was a great two days, 

Thanks babycakes!

We are so happy for you Summer!

I am super excited to let everyone know that Summer had her baby, Lilee!

This is her, isn't she adorable, I haven't seen her in person but I hear she is a cutie pie and from the pictures I agree.  

Summer I can't wait to see baby Lilee and you! I am very happy for you and your family

I think she is beautiful!

Ps thanks for letting me barrow the pictures.

Halloween Fun with our New Camera

We are part of the activities committee for our ward.  We had a pinata, pumpkin carving, bobbing for apples, cookie decorating.  Come to find out the only reason people come to war activities is so they don't have to cook dinner.  All we did was eat candy and chilli, we didn't even break open the pinata. 

So we played with my new camera....

Notice how my shirt color changed very fun!

Peter and I enjoying the five alarm chilli I made for the cook off.

This one is kinda just creepy, look at Lachelle's eyes.

Food poison?

So yesterday for lunch we went to Dew, this new sandwich place in provo that we love.  But I don't love it anymore.  20 minutes after I got back to work from lunch my tummy started to hurt.  "Oh i'm just digesting weird."  That was not the case I pukied my guts out for a couple hours and by the time Peter got home around 11pm, I was feeling tons better.  It's sad but I will never have another Dew sandwich.

Ps- Although I am still grossed out by my BBQ pork sandwich, it probably wasn't the pork that made me sick.  It was probably one of the veggies in the sandwich. You usually get food poison from lettuce or other veggies.  Thanks Lachelle for the info.
