This past weekend turned out to be a dud. Okay, not entirely, but the football loss sure brought down any Saturday night plans. Our defense simply failed, and as a result so did we, making our loss the first home game loss since 2005. Goodbye, 18 home win streak. I suppose this Saturday we’ll be starting back at 1 again…
Friday night was great, though. Tyler and I participated in a Murder Mystery Dinner, which ended up to be a lot of fun. Playing up the Roman theme, we got all dressed up in bed sheet togas and trekked down to Spanish Fork (it was held in a stake center cultural hall because there were 40 of us—6 tables of 8). Our friends Kim and Cameron were at our table, which ended up to be a lot of fun (thanks guys!). I wish I had pictures, but perhaps someone else will post them online?
Sunday was the most relaxing day by far. Oh, how I love Sundays. Tyler and I share the best laughter together on Sundays. : ) Our giggle fits are contagious and we just laugh and laugh and laugh so much. Sundays are fantastic at the Jones household.
Yesterday (Sunday, the 20th) also marked 9 months of marriage for Tyler and I, and 29 for my parents. Congrats, Mom and Dad! : )
do you see how dad is looking at mom? you can tell he loves her so much!)
Sorry about the lack of blogging. I can’t keep up with blogging, work, and a full-time school schedule. My classes are going well, though, and so are Tyler’s. My favorite class so far is my Modern Art History class (Surprising, I know! But the teacher turned out to be fantastic, and I love that it’s modern art, not 16th-century political art). I also really love my cooking class. My teacher’s goal for the semester is to make us love cooking. And I already do. I can’t wait to use the kitchenaid in this week’s lab! (I really think I’m going to start saving up for one. Maybe by next Christmas, if we find a good sale, we’ll be able to afford one.) Tyler has an interview this week with Grant Thorton. I’m sure it will go well. : ) We’ll update next week!
I told Brian he should call and mourn with Tyler, but he said he'd be okay. About the kitchenaid, you can get a refurbished one for less than $200! I was looking just yesterday because we're going to all pitch in for Freida's Xmas and get her a pink one! But, maybe you could find lime green, or yellow, or something fun!
Love Ya!
