Things I have learned from movies.

I thought this was too funny to pass up posting.. and since I am a failure at updating our blog, I figured there was really no excuse to not share this. I believe someone sent this in an email originally, but I ran across it by accident. Enjoy!

Things we have learned from movies... 1. Large, loft-style apartments in New York City are well within the price range of most people whether they are employed or not.
2. At least one of a pair of identical twins is born evil.
3. Should you decide to defuse a bomb, don't worry which wire to cut. You will always choose the right one.
4. Most laptop computers are powerful enough to override communications system of any invading alien society.
5. It does not matter if you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involving martial arts - your enemies will wait patiently to attack you one by one by dancing around in a threatening manner until you have knocked out their predecessors.
6. When you turn out the light to go to bed, everything in your bedroom will still be clearly visible, just slightly bluish.
7. If you are blonde and pretty, it is possible to become a world expert on nuclear fission at the age of 22.
8. Honest and hard working policemen are traditionally gunned down three days before their retirement.
9. Rather than wasting bullets, megalomaniacs prefer to kill their archenemies using complicated machinery involving fuses, pulley systems, deadly gasses, lasers, and man-eating sharks, which will allow their captives at least 20 minutes to escape.
10. During all police investigations, it will be necessary to visit a strip club at least once.
11. All beds have special L-shaped cover sheets that reach up to the armpit level on a woman but only to waist level on the man lying beside her.
12. All grocery shopping bags contain at least one stick of French bread.
13. It's easy for anyone to land a plane providing there is someone in the control tower to talk you down.
14. Once applied, lipstick will never rub off even while scuba diving.
15. You're very likely to survive any battle in any war unless you make the mistake of showing someone a picture of your sweetheart back home.
16. When they are alone, all foreign military officers prefer to speak to each other in English.
17. The Eiffel Tower can be seen from any window in Paris.
18. A man will show no pain while taking the most ferocious beating but will whine when a woman tries to clean his wounds.
19. If a large pane of glass is visible, someone will be thrown through it before long.
20. If staying in a haunted house, women should investigate any strange noises in their most revealing underwear.
21. Word processors never display a cursor on screen, but will always say: "Enter Password Now".
22. Even when driving down a perfectly straight road, it is necessary to turn the steering wheel vigorously from left to right every few moments. Tires will squeal on any surface, at any speed.
23. All bombs are fitted with electronic timing devices with large red readouts so you know exactly when they're going to go off.
24. A detective can only solve a case once he has been suspended from duty.
25. If you decide to start dancing in the street, everyone you meet will know all the steps.
26. Police departments give their officers personality tests to make sure they are deliberately assigned a partner who is their total opposite.

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

For V-Day, Tim and I decided that we wanted to celebrate a little later. We planned out our trip and we are now awaiting our adventure to Cali in a few weeks! We also decided that for our first Valentines day as a married couple we would spend it with my friend Kyndl and her man Justin... Kyndl also happens to be my boss, so we spent a little bit of work time planning our adventure together. The boys took us to dinner where we chowed down on some delicious food!! Then it was off to Mary Poppins the musical!! I was beyond excited for it! I LOVED LOVED LOVED the play! Tim and I, Kyndl and Justin!!

This is my boss Kyndl, I love her!! No wonder I love my job, this girl is TIGHT!!!


Tim and I got a little Crazy at intermission! hahahahah I look like a creeper!!
After the show, we went to Bahama Bucks, which is Tim's new addiction! I will never argue when it comes to anything with sugar so I am loving that he has finally chosen something unhealthy to love!! hahah

Should we stay or should we go now!

Tim and I were recently offered a summer sales job for a growing company run out of Utah. The company's CEO is an area General Authority for Salt Lake and a member of the 70 so it was obvious to us that the company was in good hands and we would be taken care of. The idea of moving somewhere we have never been before was nerve racking yet intriguing to the both of us. I was completely against quitting our jobs and leaving our comfortable and secure life behind for a job that promised nothing...but figured I would give it a chance.
We met with our recruiter Paul for a short briefing about the company and the plans for this summer. I went into the meeting with a hard heart and a negative attitude. The first thing I told Paul was that I was against the idea and was only attending the meeting for the free ice cream! We talked and voiced our concerns and opinions of the job and against all odds, Paul convinced me that being a part of the summer team would be a good thing for us. Long story short, our once negative idea was turned around and we had to begin our search for an answer on what would be best for our family....
After many prayers, fasting, frustration, and loads of stress, Tim and I received our answer. We realized we have been SO blessed with the things we have in our life. We felt that if we took the summer job that we would, in a sense, ungrateful for the things that we have been given so far in our lives as a married couple. We have declined the summer job and decided to stay here in good ol' Arizona. We have amazing jobs, free schooling, a wonderful house, an incredible ward, the most terrific friends, and sensational families!! How could we give all that up for what MIGHT happen in a summer sales job?

New Years 2009

This year, Tim and I decided to get him out of his comfort zone and shake things up a little bit, and by a little I mean, A LOT! My older brother Josh and his wife Emma planned a huge Latin style dance party. Somehow, I talked Tim into taking me and I worried that he would be too uncomfortable with people he did not know and that did not speak much English. I was WAY wrong! We got there early ( which was really almost an hour late but on Latin time thats early) so Emma and Josh took the liberty of showing us how to do some of the more traditional style dances. In my head, I was thinking " Tim is going to kill me for this!" We picked it up relatively
quickly and I was thrilled when Tim let out his first big laugh of the night. ( I knew he would have fun after that) The people there were so sweet, we made friends with them REALLY fast and we were not allowed to sit and do nothing!! They would grab out hands and say "Time to dance! Its time to party!!"Here are a few of the pictures from the night, I figured they would retell the stories better than me explaining them!

Before all the dancing and sweaty night began. I love Tim in this picture! He's such a cute boy!
Joshy and I ( This is out of sequence, its at the end of the night but oh well)
Tim and I were learning how to do the dance known as SALSA!! Our form was off but we are new to the latin style sexy dance.. dont judge us! hahahaha look at Tim shaking his hips! He did SO well!!! Candid Shots !! Ha I LOVED seeing him shake it!

Getting ready to ring in the new year, haha I love Tims face in this, haha the flash was blinding him!
Josh bought us poppers, they made a HUGE mess with everyone popping them but it was super fun to dance in the mess!
Goodbye 2009 you've been so good to us, Hello 2010 lets be friends!!


Tim and I had an amazing time dancing and speding time with Josh and Emma! We agreed that this was easily one of the funnest times that we shared together! I love my husband!

KATE!

For my Birthday, my mother in law gave me money and made me promise I would not spend it on bills. Since the only thing I really wanted was pictures, Tim agreed to take some with me ( As if engagement and wedding pictures were not enough) He was such a good sport and he kept telling me "Its your birthday baby anything to make you happy!" He really does everything he can to make me smile! I am such a lucky girl!! We loved our photographer. Tim grew up with her in Snowflake and she is so talented!!! I highly recommend her to anyone!! Check out her work at Katelinesphotography.com!! She is SO much fun!! We loved working with her!! Here are a few of the pictures she shot that day!!

This was my favorite!! I love looking at him!!

He makes my heart pound and the butterflies in my tummy get excited!

We are in love..can you tell!! My favorite thing about Kate, is she does not really pose you, she just lets you talk and act like you would if she was not there.. Some pictures needed her help since we are not the most photogenic people! hahah

I love when he kisses my cheek! He's the best!!!


Nobody can make me laugh the way Tim does!! He is more than amazing!! Simply perfect, my better half!!! I love him so much!!

I love my husband!!! Thats all there is to it... The end!!

Fall and Birthday, next ...THANKSGIVING!

Well Fall is here and we are soooo excited for our first holiday season!! haha It all starts with the spooky decorations and carving pumpkins! WOO HOO for our first Halloween together!! I have decided being married is THE BEST THING EVER!!!

For my birthday I asked Tim if we could get our pictures done professionally!! He is such a good sport but I can hardly wait!! I am SO excited for them that I keep going to the mall to try to figure out what we are going to wear. I just want them perfect, we have an INCREDIBLE photographer though, Mrs. Kate Lines, so she could make the pictures awesome if we wore potato sacks!! I am really not worried, just anxious and super happy about the idea we will have more pictures to cover the walls with!! YAY!!

Being married is amazing!! I love my husband more than anything in the world and I just feel so blessed to have him! He was on the phone with his brother who apparently said something hilarious and Tim just burst out laughing. I swear our walls could have come crashing down with the vibration in his laugh!! Thats my favorite thing ever!
