{Happy 1.5!}

Today my sweet husband and I have been married for one and a half years!!! Craziness!!!

Married = 1 year, six months

Engaged + Married = 2 years, 2 months

Dating + Engaged + Married = 2 years, 4 months, and 23 days

Friends + Dating + Engaged + Married = approx 7 years, 3 months

I can't imagine my life without him.

He's the best - and I love him with all my heart.

[now be prepared for a lot of pictures.....I tried to narrow it down, but it didn't work :)  ]

This is when I was approx 13 and he was 17

15 and 18

15 and 18 - the sunday before he left to go to BYU

Our first date!!!!

Then he disappeared for 2 years when he went on his mission....

Oh look!!! He made it back in time for my HS graduation! (By 2 days....)

In love

Engaged!!!! August 30, 2008

{One good thing}

Here is the one good thing about the cold weather.

{Last Semester}

Last night I signed up for my last semester of my undergrad.
Crazy - really. My undergraduate academic career is nearly over.

Here's what I'm taking -

Soc 318 - Adolescent Development in the Family and Other Social Contexts
Soc 404 - Qualitative Research Methods
Soc 450 - The Family and Social Change [capstone]
Soc 481 - Crime, Justice, & Corrections [capstone]
Soc 497R - Directed Research in Sociology
Soc W 200 - Intro to Social Work

Please don't ask me what I'm going to do when I graduate. I will tell you when I figure it out.

What's your favorite number?

Quick poll: What is your favorite number?
Follow-up question: Why is that your favorite number??

Mine is three and a half point six. I can't write that in numerals, because then you might get confused. So just read it aloud, and everything will be fine.

Why is that my favorite number? Well, primarily because of the confused-looking face you just made twenty seconds ago, and because I know you read the number at least twice trying to make sense of it.

Runners up: 0 followed by 1 - the favorite numbers of any good economist. Those two numbers make our math a lot easier.

Wymount (Y-Mount)

As I walked up to the BYU Health Center for a check up last week (this is Sean - so don't go freaking out that we're pregnant or whatnot - I just had a checkup) I walked past Wymount Terrace - the On-campus married housing at BYU.

As I was walking, the weirdest thought struck me: I'm in roughly the same life position my parents were during my first memories of life. My first memories happened here in Provo, while my family lived in Wymount Terrace (the buildings above), while my dad attended BYU.

Wymount Terrace is married student housing. Heidi and I are married students. We could live there. We could live where I lived as a kid (years 3-6 of my life were spent there). Is that weird to anyone else??

OK, OK, backing up, sure, my parents were several years older then than Heidi and I are now - my dad didn't start BYU till his mid 20's, but still - we're in roughly the same life-situation. I very well COULD be living in the same apartment I grew up in as a kiddo.

It's just funny to me how little things strike Heidi and I like that to remind us that we're not in just a young-twenty-something bliss (an easy state to get caught up in for us) - that we are young adults preparing to do adult-like things. We're growing up!
