Hi Again - Its been awhile, but I'm still out here
Hi Universe,
Just wanted to take a moment and let you know we are still out here. It has been a whirlwind month for the Snow family. The last several weeks have been as follows:
April was "FINALS MONTH" - My sweet husband spent a great deal of time studying and preparing for finals while I spent a great deal of time organizing and packing for our big move. Welp - Finals ended and we made out to UT just in time for Jessica's wedding. It was a beautiful day, despite the surprise snow in the morning and she looked beautiful. Josh was sick from the time, it seemed, that we landed right up until the following Wednesday - the day he left for DC with his brother to continue our packing, put our stuff into storage, and make the long drive out here in our car so we had some transportation while we stay in SLC. During his leave, Henry and I visited my parents in St. Charles, ID. It had been almost 2 years since I had been up there and it was just as beautiful as I remember. Cold, and and my allergies were driving me crazy, but it was beautiful. That weekend was Mother's day, and I was grateful I was able to spend it with my wonderful Mother. We made some yummy food and watched some fun movies. We went for a quick ride on a four wheeler and attended church with her and my dad. I did miss my sweet husband as he was driving somewhere in Ohio that day... but we had a Mother's Day Moment before he left and guess what he surprised me with??
a NEW PINK ipod nano!
The face on my old one had broken and fallen off. What a sweet husband. Henry got me the new Adele CD which is now on my new ipod, and I listen to her while im in the car AND while I run. I just want to thank my sweet boys for a wonderful Mother's day Moment. I love them so much!
Well, after we enjoyed Bear Lake I was off to spend a few days with 6 of my nieces and nephews while my sister and her husband enjoyed a business trip in Texas. We had so much fun despite all the worry people had placed in my head. I would be spending two days with 4 kids old enough to be in school all day and 3 babies! The older kids were an amazing help and while they were in school... the babies just played together until their naps. They were so much fun. We had FHE, and made caramel french toast, and we made taffy and went out for pizza... We had a lot of fun.
The day I got home from my adventure with all of those kids so did my sweet husband. And a week and a half later we are still just adjusting and spending a lot of time together. Josh starts work on Monday which I am sure now will be another small adjustment for me, but meh...thats what life's about right?
PS- We have already celebrated 3 birthdays out here.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY:
LINDA! (may 11)
DAD! (may 15)
and..

Day 10 — A favorite food & recipe
I LOVE THIS RECIPE - It is easy, and SO Yummy!
Brown Sugar Spiced Pork Tenderloin*Makes about 2 1/2 pounds of pork tenderloin, enough to serve 8 adults*
Rub Ingredients:
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 pork tenderloins (2 1/2 lb. total), each tenderloin cut into two chunks
2 tablespoons olive oil
Glaze ingredients:
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic (about 6-8 cloves)
1 tablespoon tabasco sauce
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, stir together salt, pepper, cumin, chili powder, and cinnamon, then coat the pork with the spice rub. Heat the oil in an ovenproof 12-inch heavy skillet that is ovenproof over medium high heat until the oil is hot and rippling. Brown the pork, turning, about 4 minutes total. Leave pork in the skillet. If you don’t have an ovenproof skillet, brown the pork in a skillet and transfer it to a foil-lined baking pan (like a 9X13-inch).
Stir together the brown sugar, garlic, and Tabasco and pat on top of each tenderloin. Roast in the middle of the oven until a thermometer inserted diagonally in center of each tenderloin registers 140, about 25 minutes. Let pork stand in the skillet at room temperature for 10 minutes. The temperature will rise to about 155 while standing. Slice on the diagonal and serve, spooning the sauce from the skillet on top of the pork.
