Honeymoon Shenanigans
Here are some photos taken almost four months ago. I thought some might be interested in seeing them.
The first two are of our sweet jungle themed room.
We had a six hour layover in San Francisco and we had 3 hours of sleep the night before.
This is part of our room at the resort in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. I didn't think anyone would really care to see the bathroom and bedroom ;) The whole place was nice though. We even had our own washer and dryer...thank goodness!
We went on a jet ski tour in the ocean. I had never ridden one in the ocean before and it was a blast. I even threw Tyler and I off once. It was funny until I was stung by a million jelly fish...
The resort put on a fiesta so of course we went to it. They gave out tequila like water! Too bad neither of us drink.
One night we cooked ourselves a nice mexican dish, chicken enchiladas. They were delicious.
We, also, went on a zip line adventure through a desert canyon near our resort. We looked super cool...
There were I think six different zip lines that went back and fourth through the canyon. They started out small and then got bigger and bigger. It was a blasty blast!
There was a "Tarzan Swing", which was pretty fun. I almost lost my shoe though. This is Tyler going on it.
This bridge was really wobbly. They had to clip us to a cable so we wouldn't fall off.
At the very end of the adventure we had to repel back down. It was actually really high up so it was a rush. We both loved it though.

Beauty. Brains. And Now More Brawn.
I think I'm in love...
Tyler and I have had our laptops for too many years to admit. Recently both of them died and we have been looking into buying a new macbook. Tyler only has a year of school and I am done so we thought maybe we didn't NEED a laptop. That being said we decided on a beautiful desk top. And when you're going to buy a computer you might as get what you really want. So, now we are sporting a brand new 24" iMac and we've never been happier! It's sleek, it's sexy, and faster than anything we've ever owned. My last advertising/marketing job I had this exact computer at my desk and it was hard to part from, but now I can come home to my new love every day.
Tyler showed his mom the day after we got it and she told him to show his dad and talk him into one. Ha ha, so he did and now they have a beauty of their own. The University bookstore was having a killer deal on them. It was $210 off the original price, plus you got a free printer/scanner/copier, AND a free ipod touch! Now we just need to purchase CS3 and I will be the happiest girl on earth.
Now I know everyone posts these pictures when they buy a mac, but you can't help but love the built-in camera that you can't even see. Anyway, we took like a million of these pictures and died laughing through most of them. Here are a few for your enjoyment.

Rexburg Conversations
I love Rexburg. I love all the outdoor activities available, I love BYU-Idaho, I even love all the crazy Mormons! Here is a conversation I had in the library on campus last week: (I know I'm not a student anymore, but we don't have Internet at our place yet...)
So, I'm sitting at one of the new iMacs in the library. Why didn't they have these in the library when I was a student?! My ipod was plugged in because I had some stuff saved on it I wanted to get off. Then I hear, "Listening to anything good?" from behind me. I waited for a minute to see if someone else would respond, but soon realized the question was directed toward me. I turned around and answered that I wasn't actually listening the anything...yada, yada, yada, as the young librarian boys is trying to make conversation with me. Eventually, he comes over and sits next to me to use one of the macs and I try to ignore him, but he continues to ask questions. Finally, he leaves.
Next day, I'm at the library again. We don't have Internet and I needed to get out of the apartment. Back in the same spot in the library my little friend sits right across from me. Isn't he supposed to be filing books or something? More questions from him. Where are you from? What's your major? Oh you're graduated, in what? What is your ethnicity? Alaska? So, you're Eskimo? Oh, I didn't know Eskimos weren't Native American...And on and on. He just won't leave me alone. Eventually he notices the ring on my hand and asked me what my husband is going to school for. I thought he would leave me alone when he found out, but no.
Two days later. I'm back at the library because there is nothing left to clean in my apartment, Tyler is still gone at school, we don't have cable, and I can't read on our floor anymore, (we don't have a couch yet.) Sitting at nearly the exact same computer my friends sits right next to me again. I don't know his name because I never asked. I never asked him any questions actually. I never wanted to talk to him in the first place.
I don't know what we were talking about, but out of nowhere he asks me, "So, when do you turn 21?" I don't know where he got the number. Why would he just assume I was 20? What a weirdo.
"21?" I ask.
"Yeah 21."
"I'm 25."
"You got married at 25?!"
"Well, actually I was 24, but I turned 25 soon after."
"Why did you wait so long?!" This guy is flabbergasted.
"I don't know. Because it's a pretty serious commitment."
"Were you really picky or something?"
"Maybe, I don't know." Why does this guy even care?!
"No really, you can tell me if you were really picky."
BYU-Idaho students never cease to amaze me.
