Well my internet friends, here I sit on the verge on a major life break through. I have offically joined the cool kids blog by writing my first blog entry of my life. I feel like I'm finally catching up to this whole internet blogging thing since it became popular while I was on my mission. Anyway enough of the back story now its time to talk about our super exciting lives....Yea with school starting up and Jody working full time there hasn't been much time for as many fun things as this summer but its all good! Perhaps the funniest thing that happend to us last week was last Friday. So my wife loves me for some strange reason and she agreed to come with to see the new Indiana Jones movie again. I have this weird habit of liking to see movies mulitple times in theatres. So we get to the dollar theatre by Shopko here in Provo and its surprising full. The only place to sit is between these four and kind of large and stinky side guys. The movie starts and I can tell Jody is uncomfortable. Being the amazing husband that I am I asked her what was wrong but I will admit I was paying more attention to the movie than to the things giong on around us. She has her hands over her nose and she looks like she is about to loose her lunch. She said," Can't you smell that!?!" and i was like what? Then the A/C kicked on and I was privileged to smell a combination of popcorn, BO, fart, and who knows what else! Pretty much one of the nastiest things I have ever smelled! It was too much and sadly I had to leave Indy for his quest for the crystal and escort my wife out of the theatre before she started getting really sick. So I guess what we can learn from this is showering should be everyone's friend and farting in public is kind of nasty. So that was our exciting event for the week, not exactly earth shattering but funny!
Another random thing that happend was on Sunday while we were at church which is at 8:30 in the morning and I'm pleased to report that the gospel is still true even that early in the morning! So we don't the normal opening, song, prayer annoucnements and we get to the Sacrament song which for some reason in our ward no one ever knows. Why do people feel the need to sing songs that no one knows! I'm not even kidding there was no one singing for most of the song! Anyway the Sacrament song ends and all of a sudden the Stake President who was there on some Stake Business gets up and tells everyone that there isn't anybread so he procedded to give us a brief history of the art of administering the SAcrament since 1830, riviting stuff! In all of my 23 years I've never been to church were someone forgot the bread, how crazy is that! Luckily the person with the bread arrived and all was well in Zion! Well thats about all I can think to write!

Ok so I am thinking our blog is pretty dern boring because I never tell you what Ty and I do all the time. Also because I dont have any cool photos on here. First off, where to start by telling you all about our awesome VERY quick summer. Second, I have NO clue how to add photo's on my blog. PLEASE HELP!!! I spend all day everyday on a computer for my job, have taken countless graphic design classes, countless computer classes as it is, and I cant figure out my own blog! I know, it sounds ridiculous. Pretty typical though.

Ok so first off about our summer... Ty and I have been slowly updating and re-doing our cute little condo. First was the paint job. We painted one wall in our kitchen green, one wall in our living room purple (I know, sounds crazy), our bedroom yellow, and our office blue. I figured, we are young, spry, and "super cool" so we should do something fun and crazy. And that we did. Once i figure out how to post pics, I will show you JUST how fun it is. Next we are going to rip up the disgusting linoleum floor in our bathrooms and kitchen and add tile. Then relplace the countertops, and nasty sink. It will be a long process, but a stinkin awesome one. Plus we are still working on the decor of house. Lets face it, its expensive, and lets face it again, I am a horrible chooser because I am picky and a perfectionist. Lucky Ty!!

What else... I think I mentioned how we haven't had one weekend home in August. Our last trip to end the summer with a bang we went to Jackson Hole. Ty's family has a house up there and LAbor Day weekend was his imidiate families turn to take it. Being my first Jackson Hole experience I was pleasantly surprised. Friday night we went downtown to an ACTUAL shoot out they have. Like a for real, old school cowboy shoot out from the 1800's. It was awesome. Then we walked around cute downtown and went into all the shops. All we bought was a christmas ornament :( But then we went to the cutest play. It was Cat Balou and it was SO funny. It was in this TINY quaint theater where there were like 15 rows to seat people. It was great, they had incredible voices, it was funny, and very entertaining. Saturday we played a nice friendly, competive game of mini golf with Ty's family and we are pleased to announce that Ty took first place and I took second (by ONE lousy point) out of his whole family. We raced down the alpine slide and went to a cute Mexican restaurant (of which i cant remember the name), and played Nerts (or Pounce as they call it) all night long. Sunday we went to the visting members ward for church, which was pretty packed and took a long Sunday nap. That night after dinner we went on a mountain safari looking for wild animals trip. We saw a few HUGE moose, a bunch of elk, and to top it all off A BEAR!!! It was in a tree about 30 or 40 yards away. (Once again, I will post pictures, when i figure it out). It was awesome. I think Ty's family thought I was a loon for my, lets put it, rather excited reaction. For those of you who really know me, can probably picture the seen I caused now. Anywho, the trip was a success and a great way to end the summer. As for now I think this blog is getting REALLY long, so i will spare you more details for now, and will catch up on next week posting entitled "The incredibly awesome lives of Ty and Jody". Until then TTFN and have a good one!

I am a HORRIBLE blogger

So Ty and I have had a BUSY month of August. So I have been horrible at keeping our blog up to date. We have gone to my home in Ephraim to help paint my parents living rooms to Jackson Hole, WY; to Logan, Ut; to Park City!!! We finally get a weekend at home this week though, finally! I am still trying to figure this whole blogging thing out, so adding pictures, music, and fun stuff like that is currently on its way with JodyandTyler.blogspot.com version 10.0. So until then, i will continue to stock all of your profiles until i figure this stuff out!
