Are We THAT Unusual?

Today after church we had choir. During choir, an older man was sitting next to Jarom. I was on the opposite side, sitting by no one because I'm at the piano.  This man casually asked Jarom if he and I were courting......or if we were married.

We have lived here for 4 and a half years. We have been married that entire time. He has never known us as not married. He has talked to both me and Jarom on different occasions, it's not like we've never spoken before. Not to mention I'm six months pregnant.

When Jarom told me this story, I just couldn't wrap my head around why in the world he would ask that.

Then Jarom expounded and said this man commented that we act more like a courting couple when we sit in church than a married couple.

We hold hands.

We don't make out, lay all over each other, become permanently entwined so that there is no difference between him and me......

We hold hands.

Apparently, once you get married you stop holding hands.

Well I am proud to say that I have been married for six years, and I still like my husband, so much so, that I willingly hold his hand. Who would have thought? I actually like to be with him!

Good and Bad Discoveries of the Week

This week we have discovered the secret to life in Provo!! I am serious, it's the best thing ever, and everyone who lives in or near Provo, must take advantage of this secret to life. 1. Go to the Winsong movie theater 2. Purchase a ticket for "Take" (preferably Matinee) 3. Preferably, do not watch this movie because it is a waste of time. But if you have nothing better to do with yourself, go ahead and watch it. 4. Take your movie stub to the dollar theater located by Costco in Orem 5. Finally, enjoy UNLIMITED free movies at this theater. That's right, I said UNLIMITED FREE MOVIES at the dollar theater. I know this sounds to good to be true, but it is oh so true. I have done it, and it works. Last night, we watched a free Indiana Jones from this movie ticket. It was amazing. The movie Take is pretty worthless, but the reward is priceless. Ok, so on to the bad discoveries of the week. I have recently become aware of the advantages and disadvantages that tag along with...

Cake 2.0

Here is our second attempt at fondant covered, decorated cake. We're still working on getting things smoother looking and stuff. It's a chocolate cake with caramel filling. Unfortunately the caramel didn't turn out quite like it was supposed to. It turned into basically sugar. It's probably because I was lazy and used margarine instead of butter. But it's still sweet and that's what's important right?

Going Away Present

Tomorrow is going to be my last day of work at good old Independent Study. It's kind of sad, but also kind of exciting and scary all at the same time. It's sad because I've been here for so long. This is the longest I've ever had one job, and I have made a lot of really good friends here. It's exciting because I will get to have a lot of time off to do whatever I want during the day! And it's scary because I don't have another job lined up yet. After 6 months of applying and interviewing, I'm still none the better for it. I was lucky enough to have one co-worker who cared enough about me and my departure to give me a going-away present. I don't really know why I'm sharing it with you, but here it is: This is the picture he used as a reference to update mine with: Any resemblance? It took him two days to create this picture. He said I was wise enough to become a General Authority. I told him I would have to be a man for that. So he decided to mak...
