we like the temple, and stuff.

do you think we go to weddings a lot?  cause we do.  we have been to a wedding every other week for what seems like forever.  we are at that age i suppose.... and we will still go to weddings consistently for the next few years!  it is good for us though, because it reminds us of the promises we made in the temple on our special day. every wedding is happy and we love supporting our friends.  but after today.... i think no more long days in heels for awhile.  yes!

another thing we really love is food.  weddings come with food, and it's a good thing too.  if they didn't, i would be very sad indeed.  is it just some unwritten law that you have to instantly become starving after you have attended one?  cause i sure do.  

on a completely random note:  i had my first nibble of nutella today.  delicious.

how time flies.

today as we drove home from my grandma's house, 
john and i were discussing finances. {really really interesting stuff....} 
"we've saved about this much each month.... and so we've saved about how much since we got married?"

"october 1st to november 1st...."
"december, january, february, march, april."
"holy crap! we've been married six months!?!"

six months since april 1st, 
and we didn't even notice.

perhaps it is our busy schedule,
perhaps it's stress from homework.
perhaps it's that we both had obligations that didn't include each other on april first.
{him - bachelor party, me - bridal shower.  we do live in provo, you know}
i myself don't venture to make any excuses.
we both didn't think about it, because well, it isn't important.
what's important came straight from the mouths of wonderful prophets of God this past week during conference.  they reminded me that it's all about family.  it's all about the gospel.  and in essence, it's all about john and the children/home/family/life that we are going to have/build together.
i hope you had a similarly lovely weekend!
