Hmmm...♥

The absolute best feeling in the world is Kevin fast asleep on my lap with his arms draped over my legs and he's snoring just a little. Bonus love points if he drools.

Diet Coke Challenge '09

So Kevin was trying to convince me that diet coke from a can tastes that same as diet coke from a fountain. That's right, and this guy is going to be a nurse. You could fill up a swimming pool with canned diet coke and I wouldn't even be tempted to drink my way to the bottom. We decided to have a diet coke challenge to see if I could taste the difference between the two. We went to Del Taco and got a DC from the fountain and an empty Del Taco cup with ice. All that was missing was a poster board with a problem, hypothesis, procedure, result, conclusion, and a green participation ribbon.


The constants.


Designated pourer.


My eyes were really closed.


Action shot.

In the end I was victorious. Diet coke from a can tastes totally flat. My reward: A small diet coke from Del Taco.

Fun to do - Hmmmmm

Last night, we discovered a very simple and really fun game to play together. We were lounging on the couch and somehow we broke out into humming songs while the other would try and guess which song it was. Don't bash it until you try it, it makes for a really good laugh!

Some of the songs we tried were

1. YMCA

2. Livin on a Prayer

3. Stayin Alive

4. Battlefield

Hint: Church hymns are easy, but try some current pop songs (they are hard).

I'm in love

I love our new apartment!! I love cleaning. I love cooking, well I'll love cooking once I run out of goldfish and I have to cook. I love not sharing a bathroom with people I can't kiss. I love not having to go through the bathroom to get to my room. I love our new couch and bed. I love deciding where everything goes. I love that Kevin put his dirty spoon in the freezer next to his ice cream. I can't wait for Kevin to move in so he can sleep on his side of the bed. I can't wait to make breakfast and wait for him to come home. I can't wait to stay up reeeally late watching movies, or on some nights go to bed at 9:30. I love that this will be our new home and for the next month I get to make it our home. I hope time flys, I hope I look back and think "where did the time go??" What color napkins should we use at the reception? I've moved on to bigger and better things, like shower curtain liners.

Walking a fine line

A few weeks ago, we were over at Ryan and Katie's place again and somehow Ryan convinced us all to go out slack lining at Ford Park. The sunset was pretty nice as was the weather. But trying to learn how to slack line all over again is so hard!!! It is basically walking on a tie down strap between two trees. Fall the wrong way, and your voice could change in pitch.

It takes some help and love just to get up on the thing.

My legs are so weak from not playing soccer.

Butt shot!

Katie all by herself.

See how high the line snaps up.

Surfing moves.

We always have fun with these two until Katie gets pregnant.
