A new Direction

Recently i had a grand ol opportunity to go to the Manti Pageant with a few older devils not to name names or anything but Kyle and Emily, and Erica and Brian oh yes and my date Layne. So the six of us piled into the truck (yes Brians truck so we were all "cozy") and played Scrabble Erica won i think for the first time ever, and nany only has one "n".

Now in my life there are very important people i would like to share two of them with you.

#2 Layne Jeppson who recently became my husband. how did this come about you may be asking well kids let me tell you. At the Pageant there are always a few misinformed souls trying to convince us lucky informed devils that we are not as informed as we think we are. While select few individuals were "bible bashing" with them. Layne and i were standing next to each other listening to how they responded to questions and this man Ed came up and started talking to us asking about what we thought on the discussion the other individuals were having. Me being all wise knew where he was heading eventually he asked if we were members of the Church. Which of course we said yes and we talked for a little while longer and he shot at us "Were you two married in the temple?" Layne turned into a lobster and i didn't know what to say so my arms flew everywhere gesturing to Layne and i and shaking my head (i understand now what it means to have your tongue bound so you couldn't speak.) so Ed assumed we didn't know each other. and Now Layne is my husband. sorry i didn't tell you or invite you. No hard feelings.

#1 In May i had to switch Airplanes in Tennessee at a very high rate of speed so i could make my next flight to the SinCity. I sat down next to the window (yes i'm brilliant i know) and realized when we were landing that i wasn't as clever as i believed so after humbling myself my dads ears came in handy and picked up this on my ear wax radar. "plane is landing i'm going to have hopefully fifteen minutes to get to my next flight to Vegas" I identified this man as the "BCBM" Brief Case Business Man. We landed and we grabbed our stuff i made the comment that i was heading to Vegas also and he nodded and said "well lets go catch our flight first one off find out where it is." We had a plan, he had a briefcase and i was wearing my tennis shoes. He made it off first and as i came out of the tunnel he was pointing and yelling like a man with turrets to the point where i almost ignored him. "This way this way go go go!!" We sprinted through the airport and i looked at him and at the gate then back at him and we took off racing for the gate entrance. (We were quite a sight i'm sure people were making bets). So me and the BCBM made our flight on time.
