An interlude




I know there are other supposed events that I should catch up on (moving etc.) but I had to add a snippet of an endearing conversation I had with my husband tonight. I was rather irate to begin with and started ranting about people who appear to have 0% compassion in their very souls and our conversation started to turn towards general political trends and philosophies etc. We were talking about how many times voting comes down to choosing someone who you hope will be a good decision maker. Often times people vote based on shared ideologies etc. Then, just as I am gaining more momentum and getting more irate about various things, Dean says indignantly, "Here's the thing. George W. Bush is a mountain-biker, but I still think he's a moron!" hahahahaha. I love that man. (Dean, that is, not George W.) I don't know if anyone else thinks that is even remotely funny, or if it was just one of those things you had to be there to appreciate, but I thought if was funny enough to immortalize on the pages of this blessed blog. Welp, that's all for now. Have a good night!

Fourth of July




Let's go back in time shall we? I know that it is actually July 25th, but I plan to keep blogging as if I had made multiple, separate entries during the busy month of July, instead of making one long catch up post...So, here we go! We had a fun but low-key Fourth this year. Dean and I had our own BBQ dinner and then friends came over to watch fireworks and eat root beer floats. Alas, the root beer wasn't homemade as I had originally planned on, but maybe next year right? Turns out I don't have any containers big enough to make five gallons of root beer. Not sure how such a tool slipped my mind when I was creating a wedding registry, but somehow it did. Anyway, I admit we picked probably the worst possible spot to watch fireworks from, but it was still fun to spend time with our friends! Right after this eventful evening, I drove out to CA to see my family and Dean followed by flying down a few days later. It was great to see both of my parents and spend some time in beautiful southern CA. Dean was also able to see his good friend Devin-and we've included photographic evidence for those of you in Provo who were beginning to wonder if Devin really exists or not. Yes, People, he does. That's all for now!
