So, I just feel the need to write right now, but I'm not sure what to write about.
Life has been ok. Still living in Kyle's room. The basement is
actually coming along though. But, I'm ready to have a place that's
100% our own. I want to get out of Laura's and her family's hair. I'm
sure we bother them 110% more than they bother us. They're so nice to
let us stay here. And so nice to offer us food sometimes, and get us
random things just because. But it's time for us to have our own space,
so we can act like newlyweds for real... and actually use our wedding
gifts! I just hope we can stay close like we have been.
I went shopping today... bought a nice pair of black pants, a sparkly
top, a necklace and 3 pairs of earrings. None of it really matches
each other though. I've decided that I'm going to stop buying cotton
t-shirts and stuff. I need to get more "nice" clothing. Laura and I
watch "What Not to Wear" a lot, and I think my wardrobe needs to be a
little bit more upscale.
I was looking forward to this weekend... It was going to be
amazing. Our company Christmas party is on Friday, at Tuscany up in
Salt Lake, and on Saturday there's a Jazz game that Lance and I are
going to (we have season tickets). So Lance and I were going to stay in
a hotel Friday night after the party. Well, now I find out that Lance
has to work on Saturday... so I guess we go to the company party, drive
home for an hour, he goes to work, comes home, and we drive all the way
back up to Salt Lake. Sounds like a waste of gas, and a waste of time
to me. At least I'll get to spend some time with him, huh?
Well anyway... until next time!

Update

I guess since I haven't written since before the wedding I should give a little update...
The wedding went well. Just made all my pics available for everyone to see! Most of the pics from our photographer were way too large (super high quality), so I had to shrink them down, and I guess I shrunk them down too much, 'cause now the quality isn't that good at all. But oh well...take a look. It was a great day!
A great day until we had to leave the reception, that is. There was a HUGE fire down near Fillmore, and they had the freeway closed for 93 miles. Well, we were supposed to stay in Fillmore, but the freeway was closed 20 miles before fillmore and 73 miles after Fillmore. But we didnt' know this until taking a 100 mile detour. We ended up staying in Richfield, along with everybody else who was tryingn to get through the closed freeway. As you can imagine, all the hotels were full and the only thing available was in a cheap banger motel, and it was a smoking room. Loveley wedding night, huh?
The honeymoon was SWEET! Except for the fact that I was "sick" the whole time. Ok, so I really wasn't sick, but the truth is kinda feminine TMI so we'll leave it at sick... We went on a cruise (if you couldn't tell from the photos) to San Diego, Catilina Island and Ensenada, Mexico. We ported out of Los Angeles, so on the way down there we spend a night in Vegas at the Luxor hotel. That's the pyramid hotel on the Las Vegas Strip. That was a super nice hotel! The cruise was fun, had a lot of amazing food and good activities, and super sweet sites to see. On the way home we spent 2 days in Las Vegas again. We had so much fun!
Currently we are living in the smallest room of Lance's sister, Laura's house with her family. They've been working on finishing the basement for us... but didn't really get started until a couple weeks before the wedding... So here we are, crammed in a tiny space. At least we're together though... that's all that counts! The basement is slowly making progress...

37 Hours

37 hours until I get married.... 37.
Kind crept up on me... this past week totally flew by!
Tomorrow will be a busy day... I'm going to practice waking up at 6am so I won't be zombie on Saturday! Nobody wants to see a zombie bride!
My room is a disaster. Looks like I had a tornado. There is stuff everywhere, and nowhere to put anything! I'm going to have to finish moving after the honeymoon.
So...anyone who's interested. For our honeymoon we are going on a cruise to Catilena Island, and then Ensenada, Mexico. On our way down, we are spending 1 night in Vegas at the Luxor, and then on our way back we're spending 2 nights in the 4 Queens hotel. I'm pretty excited! It will be fun!
Well... I hope the rest of you who have not already told me they can't make it, will come see us at the reception. 6-8pm on Saturday the 7th. It's at the church on the corner of 400E and 200S in Pleasant Grove.

Joel 2:31

"The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the Lord come." Joel 2:31
That scripture came to mind tonight as I was driving home from Lance's. I'll explain...
Currently, and all day long, the mountain just across Utah Lake, west from here has been on fire. During the day all you can really see is smoke. It is almost 2am now, thus it is dark. Well... practically that entire mountain is blazing right now, and you can see the yellow-orange flames. I tried to take a detour on the way home so I could drive closer to it and watch the fire, but all those roads are closed for construction. I did get close enough to see the actual movement of the fire. ...It is so gorgeous. Anyhow, while driving I caught a glimpse of the moon in my rearview. The moon was just north of this blazing mountain, and the moon was blood red. I hurried up and got home as fast as possible so I could get my camera to take a picture. Because boy... was this pretty. This blazing, yellow-orange mountain and a blood red moon was something I've definately never seen before! Well, my pictures didn't really turn out very well... but I did stand and stare at the moon for a bit. It actually changed colors, it went from a pale orange, to a deep orange to a dark red. It was very fascinating.
The scripture came to my mind when I first saw that the moon was red. It occurred to me that the sun has been "turned into darkness" and the moon into "blood" or at least, the color of blood. The funny thing about scripture is that sometimes it's figurative, and sometimes it's litteral! But, in this case I'm assuming/hoping the scripture is figurative. Thus, the sun went down, so it has been "turned to darkness" and the fire reflecting off of the moon has caused it to appear red, or "into blood." Quite interesting, the way scripture describes things, isn't it? I'm not necessarily saying.... oh looky... this prophecy is fulfilled, the end is near. But the scripture was just a thought that popped into my head.
In that "great and terrible" day, when the Lord comes again, there's supposed to be fires and earthquakes and just a whole bunch of terrible things. So maybe, when he comes, the fires will be reflecting off of the moon while the sun is down and make it appear red.
But then again...it does say "...*before* the great and the terrible day..."
