Winter Fun!  The last few weeks have been really exciting.  After waiting a few weeks I finally got my new digital camera… the Nikon D300.  I also got a beautiful wide-angle lens so that I can take the most spectacular photographs ever.  This weekend was stunning and I was able to make it up into the mountains to take some pictures.

 

That wasn’t the only thing I was working on this weekend however, I also managed to get my new company registered.  I am now the proud owner of Khan & Associates LLC.  I also go to enjoy the fine food from my own kitchen.  I included a picture of tonight’s special.  Penne pasta with a special oven baked vegetable sause.

 

Oh, I forgot… I am still in school and having fun.  My engineering classes are getting really interesting now that we are learning about real-world applications.  Math still kicks my trash but my gym class balances it out.

 

Big storm coming in tonight… makes for some great pictures.  Those will be coming soon.  Have a great night and a great week!

Happy New Year!  It is has been some time since I sent out one of these emails.  Life has been really great and I am getting ready to start another exciting semester at BYU tomorrow.  Some highlight from this last semester of school included becoming a resident of the state of Utah and purchasing a remote start system for my truck.  It is really nice because I can start my truck from about a mile away and by the time I am ready to drive off, it is already warmed up and ready to go.

 

I have taken up snow shoeing and that has been a blast.  The nearest mountain trail is about ten minutes from my house.  My roommate has a 5 month old yellow lab who loves the snow and it has been fun.  Christmas and New Years were pretty tame this year as I spent it in Salt Lake with from friends.  Other than that, life continues onward.

 

Pictures:

 

New Years Dinner – I made my dad’s special pasta primavera and it was by far the best pasta that any of my friends had ever tasted. I cooked with shrimp, chicken, vegetables and some unique spices to give a great flavor. (Thanks Dad)

 

 

 

Snow Shoeing – This is my roommate Charlie from Salt Lake and I snow shoeing in Mill Creek Canyon.  It is very beautiful.

 

  

 

Toyota Tacoma:  This is my baby. I don’t know how I ever survived living in Utah without a great truck. I have spent a few extra bucks doing some after market upgrades.

 

 

 

Snowy Day – This is outside my place and the tree looks beautiful.  Winter isn’t all that bad.  Pretty days like this make it worth it.

  

 

 

There are many more pictures and I will eventually find a way a to present them.  I am looking forwarded to purchasing a professional grade camera so I can take even more stunning pictures.

 

Happy New Year!
