Anniversary #2!!!

Scott took his 3rd test of the CPA Thursday morning. We left right when he was done to go on a little temple trip to celebrate our two whole years together.

The Snowflake, AZ Temple...now we've been to all 3 Arizona temples!





THE PETRIFIED FOREST - A quick side attraction full of petrified wood











Since we were up so far, we decided to drive another 4 hours and go to a session in the Albuquerque, NM Temple to be able to add to our temple scrap-book.





After our temple fun, we planned some camping. Who knew the hurricane storm along the coast of Texas would cause huge thunder and lightning storms in NM right where we were camping??? As soon as we had our tent set up, it started to rain...hard.

It was kinda fun to watch the lightning and hear the thunder so close. It was kinda scary at the same time. But then it was raining so hard, that water started coming in the bottom sides of the tent where the rain fly didn't cover. As soon as it stopped raining, we moved all our things in the car so they wouldn't get wet and figured we'd be alright on our blow-up mattress even with a little water in the tent.
Then it started raining again. Water was still comin' in! Then it finally stopped after drenching our tent. Scott sat up and his sleeping bag zipper must have caught on the mattress because it popped! We tried to patch it, but apparently we didn't quite get it because it definitely was deflating.

One of the puddles inside our tent.

It started raining again, water was coming in, and we were pretty much lying on the ground. What a miserable night! Finally at 2am, we got up and slept (or tried to) the rest of the night in the car. What fun adventures we have:)
