matt is taking a humanities class right now. it's required. i'm not sure he would have signed up for it otherwise. although, i do think he has enjoyed it so far. in it, he will 'examine american art, architecture, music, literature, and film'. tonight we are actually going to a play, up on campus, for this class. i'm anxious to see how chet will handle it. i plan on spending the entire day leading up to the play making sure chet will be fed right before the play so that he will sleep right through it. wish me luck! chet might have other plans...

anywho, the reason i brought up this class is because of the assignment matt was working on last night. his teacher told the class that they each needed to take 3 photos. 1 portrait, 1 landscape, and 1 using an egg. i tagged along while he went in search of a good landscape photo. we found out that rexburg is indeed in the heart of potato farm land! the portrait photo is of me...shocking. and the egg picture is my favorite. he left the house with a carton of eggs, a sharpie, and a camera. and he came home with this:

his teacher will be grading the portrait and landscape photos. but his class gets to vote on the 3 best egg pictures. i would vote for his picture if i was in his class. it made me laugh!

there is this wicked little dairy shop right across the street from our complex. it's called G's. and when i say it's right across from us i really mean it. it's dangerously easy to get to. and they sell the tastiest ice cream. not only is it de-lish, but it's also such a great deal. we make our way over there weekly! i am pretty boring with ice cream treats. once i find one that i like at a store i always get the same thing. for example, if i go to marble slab i get birthday cake ice cream with cookie dough. mcdonalds? an oreo mcflurry with caramel mixed in. dairy queen? a cookie dough blizzard. and so on. can you tell i like ice cream treats?!

at G's i always get cookie monster.

last night we had a craving for a treat so we headed over to G's. but rather then getting our usual double scoop (that lasts us 2 nights), we got down to business and each took home a half gallon! oh my!
