Past Holidays...

Halloween and Thanksgiving proved to be some fun times for both Jono and I. Halloween turned out well, after I spent days stressing over what Jono and I should be. I finally just settled on cat and mouse, although I must say I had to use some coercion to convince Jono to walk out of the house with a small furry tail tied to his belt loop... :] But we did have fun picking out a pumpkin and using our mad skills to create a work of art...well, kind of. We ended up going over to the Gardner's house for a Halloween party and we rocked at 'couples limbo' (although I think Jono might have pulled something). Here are a few pics.

Thanksgiving was also full of memories. After three turkey dinners, Jono and I are STUFFED!! (...and very sleepy!) Since this holiday was an off-season for my parents, we had an early Thanksgiving dinner two weeks early. It was very delicious and we also took our family Christmas photo....which you will see on here very soon. Our next dinner was with Jono's parents at a friend's house, which was also very good, the day before Thanksgiving. And finally, my parents had another dinner that I, Jono and the Castletons went to. Then afterwards we all went to see Transporter 3 with my sister Claire and her husband, Sterling. So all in all, the past holidays haven't disappointed yet and we are VERY exited for Christmas to come.

One Short Day...

...at Pantages Theater...


So I am taking a nap about 2 Mondays ago, and I get a text message from Jono. This makes me very happy because when Jono is at work I consider myself very lucky if I get a text message, let alone just a response to a text. It went a little something like this:

Jono: Wicked thursday night?
Me: Wwwhat??
Jono: Yes or No?
Me: H yes!


The following Thursday Jono and I got all dressed up and went to dinner at Pick Up Stix and then drove up to LA. We gave ourselves about 2 hours to get there for the 8 o'clock show, and we used up every minute. We were still on the freeway at 7:40 and traffic was not looking good, and Jono and I both had to use the restroom from drinking so much at dinner--smart, I know. We FINALLY got to exit 8b and were pulling up to the parking lot (now it's about 7:52) and we were worried about parking. Jono told me to get out and find our seats so if we didn't find a parking spot at least I would get to see the first half (what a nice guy!). So I hopped out and went inside and saw the bathroom line wasn't TOO long, so I hopped in and called Jono on the phone. After I got out I met Jono coming out of the Men's restroom and we hurried to our seats. We had good seats and the play was even better than the first time we saw it. Both Jono and I had to contain ourselves from singing along with all the songs, since we had so much practice as we sang along with the soundtrack to and from all our Idaho trips this past summer.


The night turned out to be successful after one dinner, getting away from 3 possible car accidents, two tired people, and one wonderful play.


"It's just, for the first time I feel....WICKED."
