Fitness Challenge Champs (Fall Semester)

The MBAA and MBASA teamed up this year to offer a Fitness Challenge for all our exercise-minded members, pitting the spouses of MBASA against their significant others. MBASA won! (Of course.) Keep up the great work ladies and let's beat them again this semester!

MBASA Winners: Marie Young, Nicole Johnson, Makana Hansen, Michelle Cook and Madison Jackson

Second Year Dessert Night (1.23.2013)

The first year's don't always get to have all the fun. A group of second year spouses got together for some delicious desserts and conversation at The Chocolate in Orem in January. Hard to believe that we'll be done with the program in 2 short months and most of us will be moving to all sorts of new places.

GNO: Movie and Yogurt (12.4.2012)

A little late getting this photo up, but here's a picture from the wonderful Fellowship Committee's December GNO: Movie and Yogurt. The spouses enjoyed a movie and frozen yogurt afterward.

Fond of You Fondue Night (2.6.2013)

The Fellowship Committee hosted the "Fond-of-You" Fondue Night this month. It's always one of the most popular Girl's Night Out events and full of delicious food and great conversation!

Thanks to everyone who attended and for the fellowship committee for putting it together!

Learning to Line Dance!

Thank you to Madison Jackson (our own country dancing expert) for teaching us all how to line dance! Everyone really had a great time with their spouse and as you can see, we have some that really have the moves! The overall favorite was "I play chicken with the Train"

Kitchen Aid: Funnel Cakes (2.6.2013)

The Education Committee's "Kitchen Aid" series took a turn toward sweeter matters when Kjersti Helberg taught the spouses how to make the ultimate fair food: funnel cakes.

Check out the recipe here: Funnel Cakes. You can also look for it in our forthcoming MBASA Cookbook, which will make its debut in March.

First Years Valentines Party {2.8.2013}

The First Year Committee planned a Valentines Party for first year couples.  The evening was complete with a Bake-off, Foosball Battles, rousing games of "Name that Love Song" and "What's that Candy Bar?" and matching Love Stories to Couples.

  At the end of the evening we crowned the King and Queen of Hearts - the couple with the highest overall points - Josh and Michelle Cook. Congratulations you two!

A special thank you to the single MBA students who provided babysitting!

Foosball!

Now if only I knew what candy is a "Phone Call to Dad"... ("Ring Pop" for those who are curious)

Lacey reading the Love Stories (Do you know who Dear John-ed her husband & was engaged to someone else or who crashed into Robert Redford's sons' car on a date? Just a few of the precious gems we learned that night)

Anne playing the Love Songs - we were pleasured with tunes from Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Taylor Swift, Celine Dion, and Whitney Houston to name a few.  Quite the eclectic group of musicians if you ask me.

 

Some of the happy couples:

Thank you to everyone who helped plan such a fun evening!
