Some Big News, and Fun Facts.

 Before I start, you won't see much updating around here for awhile, because:

That's right!  We're going to Disney World!  I'm so excited, I can't stand it.  We went to Disneyland in California last year, but it just didn't live up to all of my Magical Memories from when I was a kid.  So, I finally talked Jon into taking us to Florida!  We'll be there from the 2nd-9th of November, and Landon and I are both so excited we can't stand it!  Landon keeps running around the house saying, "Go bye-bye, see Mickey, swim in the blue water!!!"  It's pretty darned adorable, if I do say so myself.  Of course, I did have to sweet talk Jon into it....

By promising him we could try for a new baby!

We FINALLY got approved for some RIDICULOUSLY expensive health insurance that actually covers maternity (albeit with a HUGE extra deductible), and as Laura would say, perfect practice makes perfect!  Jon's hoping we end up with a Disney baby (don't worry, our suite has separate bedrooms), and when I asked Landon what he wanted for Christmas, he said "Um, I need a baby Sister," which was pretty hilarious considering we hadn't told him anything about the new plan yet.  Guess he's spent enough time with his cousins to like the idea.

In the meantime, I have two exams and a quiz to take between now and Sunday, and I'm SUPER behind on them.  Since it feels like my priorities have been re-examined, it's getting VERY hard to keep up my motivation in school.  Of course, I HATE feeling like I don't know it all, so that helps a little bit.

Now, onto the fun facts!  Aryn posted this cute survey about our husbands, and since mine is pretty wonderful, I thought I'd do it to!

1. What is your husband's name? Jonathon 
2. How long have you been married? Almost 4 years
3. How long did you date? Just under 6 months from our first date to our wedding date.
4. How old is he? 26
5. Who eats more sweets? ME!
6. Who said I love you first? Jon
7. Who is taller? Jon
8. Who can sing the best? I don't think either one of us should quit our day jobs!
9. Who is smarter? I've got the book smarts, and Jon's got the real-world smarts.  Although, he's really impressed me this semester!  We both compliment each other, I think.
10. Who does the laundry? It used to be that he'd wash and I'd fold, but now that he's so busy at work, I do both!
11. Who pays the bills? Me!
12. Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? I do, I don't like to sleep next to the door.
13. Who mows the lawn? Usually Jon.  I've done it twice, and both times it looked worse than when I started!
14. Who is the first to admit when they are wrong? DEFINITELY NOT ME!  LOL.  Luckily, I married an amazing man who knows how stubborn I am, and likes me anyway!
15. Who kissed who first? Jon tried to kiss me on our first date, I only let him kiss my cheek.  On the second date, it was mutual.
16. Who asked who out first? Jon asked me out on my first day of work! 
17. Who wears the pants? Landon!  Once you have kids, you give up that role!  In reality, I'll steal a line from Aryn, we each wear a leg, it's pretty much 50/50 around here, although Jon's a sucker when I bat my eyes!
OK so there you have it! So if you read this, join in the fun and post it on your own blog so I can see what you have to say!

Oh my goodness, I can't believe you are going to Disney World. Any chance that you are coming to Alabama 'on the way?' (hint: the answer should be yes)

You have already heard everything I have to say on this subject so I will just leave it at "IT'S ABOUT TIME!"
Love

Just kidding, there's more. I think that Jon should get a firm definition of "try," and get the whole thing in writing signed in blood.
Love

I am so glad you did the survey. Its fun to read and catch up on weird things. Good luck with trying! Mason was right when he said it was a girl in the early stages of my pregnancy...so maybe Landon knows something you guys don't! Or maybe you are like me and are already pregnant without even knowing it. I didn't even know until the 2nd trimester!!!!!! Good luck with everything and travel safe!

Hey Kelley! I want to sign up for parent/child swim lessons! They start the end of Nov. I was wondering if you and Landon want to do it with us. It's at the Orem Rec. Center, and it's ages 6 mo. to 3 years...Please call me when you guys get home! I think it would be soOO fun!---I hope you guys had an awesome time at Disney World! Let me know how it went!

Thanks so much for your sweet comments on my blog! I totally appreciate it! Since I consider Utah the "Scrapbooking Capitol of the World" believe me...I'd be THRILLED if the military moved us there! :) So you never know...someday I might be nearby and I'd LOVE to capture some photographs of your beautiful family!

Congrats on the baby plans!!! YIPPEEEE!!!!
