Rob the trucker tells about our enormous ride
to Utah. We packed up and piled into our Pensky
headed to Rob's new job in the Spanish Dept.
at BYU.

The young women and fellow leaders were a huge part of my life in Austin. It was a tremendous experience to learn and serve with them. Here, we're at one of the spiffy firesides at Bishop Burgener's. Love these gals!!

Aaahh!! Livin' the good life. Kickin' back with a good ol' coconut surrounded by attractive men. We took a boat out to an island called Isla Mujeras and rented a moped to drive around the island. It was a great time.

In the summer of 2007, to celebrate Rob's ascent from the trenches of graduate school, Jami took her first trip out of the country (besides Canada but that doesn't count). Mexico was a gorgeous and exciting adventure, from swimming with whale sharks in the middle of the ocean to eating muy questionable food in a cockroach infested straw hut. Here, we splurged and bought $7.00 drinks!! Too wicked extravagant we are!

If you look close you can see the whale shark right next to Rob. We drove 2 hours out into the middle of the ocean until we spotted a few, in pairs with the guide we sat on the side of the boat until the shark swam right past, then we jumped in with our snorkels on and watched it as we swam right beside it. It was absolutely fascinating!
