Dream Machines

Last night was Devon's turn to pray before we went to bed. In his prayer he asked that we would both have good dreams. It kinda made me chuckle because it's not something I've ever heard him pray for. And I guess it's not something I've really had to pray for, well... not since I was a scared little 6 year old.

Well, when i woke up this morning I started telling Devon about my dream. And He said, "no, way! I had that same dream!" This isn't the first time this has happened to us. Had the same dream that is.

Last night we both dreamed that we were recruited onto the REAL Salt Lake soccer team, and we were awesome players. Devon even scored 2 goals in one game in his dream. In my dream I was just the amazing female that was so good they bent the rules to let me on the team.

I'm sure it had something to do with the intense game we went to last night. (We won, 1-0)
And this dramatic promo they played at the game.



But mostly, I think the Lord just knows us really well, and He knew the best possible dream that Devon and I could have shared.


And if that's not the Lord himself, smiling down on our team, I don't know what is.

We all fall down

I haven't had much time to blog lately. I've been spending so much time editing this program on WWII veterans for work. I'm hoping to have some more time again soon. But until then, I thought I would post this video that Devon made the other night at my parent's house. This is my nephew, Bridger.




I love Devon's cackle at the end.

As promised in a previous post I took the short clips I had of Devon and edited them into this short music video.

Enjoy.

Magnify that Calling

Devon and I are in charge of the ward program each week at church. We print off 60 copies and stand at the doors at church and hand them out. It is a very detailed program and includes a ward spotlight. We have to spotlight a new couple each week and share information about them. Since we received this calling we have had a hard time getting people to respond to our requests to be in the ward spotlight. For every 8 requests we email out, we are lucky to receive one response. Well, yesterday we woke up and started making the program. We checked the ward email to see if anyone had responded, and nope, not a single one. I was gosh darn sick of people not responding and so I decided that it was time for us to just start creating fake couples in the ward.
"That'll teach em." Devon said. So together he and I created a new couple to be spotlighted in the ward program.

We were both a little hesitant about how the bishop would respond, because he takes the program very serious. Well, I almost lost it in Sacrament Meeting when our Bishop stood up (after he had already made all of the announcements) and asked every one to open their ward programs and take notice of the new couple in the ward. "Make sure you find them today and say hi" he said, very seriously.
That's when I snorted... kinda loud.

Yeah, our Bishop knew it was a joke. He's just a really cool cat.

I love/hate technology

Dewey loves his iphone 4. He plays with it a lot. Some times it drives me crazy.
Other times it makes me so happy. Like when he sends me little videos he makes when he's home alone. He used to send them to me while I was in class. I loved those days.

Here are a couple for you to enjoy.


I have no idea what he's doing at the
beginning of this one.


My niece Ansley LOVES this video.


This one is kinda scary.



* COMING SOON TO WE LIKE IT CHEESY :
I think i'm going to take these videos of Devon and create my own music video. So, stay tuned.

And PLEASE take the new poll I just posted. It's very important.

Mary Kate isn't the only one with a disorder

You've probably already heard, but Devon and I both have eating disorders. Devon is an extremely picky eater and I eat everything I see. For a complete log of our eating habits, you can click here.

For Christmas my sister Katy gave Devon the most wonderful present. Lunch trays from an elementary school. Our dining room table has become much more romantic and our meals are much more nutritious. Devon isn't afraid his vegetables are going to slide over and touch his bread or his brownie, and I can't think of any reason the trays help with my eating disorder. However, I think the trays make dinner a lot more fun. And they fit great in the dishwasher.

Don't be too shocked that Devon is eating apple slices. It's one of the fruits he will eat.

We have a set of 4, so if you ever want to join us for dinner, let me know. Or if you would like to purchase your own lunch trays, you can find them on Amazon, but they aren't cheap.

My dream shoe

The only shoes I enjoy wearing are Rainbow Flip Flops and Cabellas Moccasins. For church I have a few pairs of shoes that I dread wearing. I would take comfort over fashion any day. Every Sunday I put on my moccasins and tell myself, "they don't look that sloppy." I wear them around and try to justify wearing them to church. I just cant do it.

This week I was at DI and I found my Dream Church Shoe.




I had no idea it existed. I though for sure that they were sent there from the Lord as a blessing for not wearing my moccasins to church. You know... not until after the trial of your faith. Well the trial of my faith was about to begin reaping the rewards.

I slipped my foot into the lovely little creation, and guess what?

It was 2 sizes too big.

As one country singer might say, " There was a tear in my beer".

Oh well, I'm just glad to know the shoe exists. Hopefully I can find a pair in my size, or maybe some day the prophet will ask us all to go to church not dressed for the beach, but to go worship with the Mohicans.
