Memories In The Making...

Jonathan and I are so excited for the holidays!!! We have started pulling out the Christmas decorations and buying lights for the house. Of course they won't be put up or at least lit until after Thanksgiving. But all the same we are so excited to get everything up!
Jon has been so much fun, my Mom has let him in on a little hint, that I happen to be a bit of a snoop when it comes to Christmas, so he has gifts hidden not only out of the house.. but all over town. That's right he has hidden the gifts at different peoples house, one gift per house and not in a house I go to often. I have to say.. I'm pretty impressed.

Tonight Jonathan wanted to dinner.. that usually mean some kind of take-out. Which is fine, It doesn't bother me. But tonight he came in and said "Chels, you are going to kill me. I'll be back." And he locked the door open and walked back outside. Then he walked back in the door with two full bags of Chinese.
"They messed up the order." was the first thing that came from his mouth as he walked in the door. I could help but laugh as he started unloading the dinner he has slaved over. You know the size of the to go boxes, the big ones. Well... We had four of them.. Four different meats, two full things of rice, 7 or 8 ragoons, 4 egg rolls, a pint of soup, and 9 fortune cookies. He said he knew the "price was a little much." I just laughed and kept laughing for a few minutes. We had our very own Chinese Thanksgiving at our house tonight!! Love that boy!

Time Is Flying...

So many things are happening right now. It seems that Jon and I never have a chance to take a breath. But I love it!! We have two wedding coming up in December! I am so excited for both of them! The first is on December 23rd. Jonathan's brother Spencer will be marrying Ariell. She is so much fun! She has two kids, and from the pictures I have seen their little family is so adorable together. Spencer has been away to Basic so Ariell has been putting together the wedding. What a great deal for him. He gets married and and doesn't have to deal with all the pre-wedding things! The second wedding is on December 29th, my cousin Toni (who you have seen in earlier blog posts and pictures) will be married to Marc. I am so excited for these two!! I can't wait to get to see pictures of her in her dress!! Its beautiful! So classic but at the same time very trendy!! I love it!
Jon and I have been doing the usual, work and he is waiting for classes to start back up. He has really loved working at the hospital. You can tell he really loves the medical field! He has been doing a lot of four A.M. shifts which haven't been bothering him at all. I don't know how he does it. Three or four days a week he works the regular eight to ten hours shifts and LRH, then heads up to USU to work another four and sometimes six hour shift. He is my superman.. cheesy.. oh well. Don't think he doesn't get tired though. Some nights he is beat! Like last night.. You know when little kids fall asleep eating, and you can't help but laugh at them. Well I have one up those cute little munchkins! I hope I don't offend anyone by telling this.. But it just has to be told! So I will say sorry in advance.. just to be safe!
Anyway.. Back to my story.. Last night Jon started to say our prayer before bed. It started...

Jonathan: "Our dear kind Heavenly Father, We thank thee for this day. And all the blessings you.."
I paused.. Waited.. Then opened my eyes to see him PASSED OUT!!
Me: "Jon? Are you asleep? Did you really just fall asleep in the middle of your prayer?"
Jonathan: "Oh... Father I'm sorry.. We thank thee for all the blessing you have given to us. "
The prayer went on and I thought we were in the clear... He was going to make it! I was sure of it! Then...
"and Father, Please bless Chelsea will get those papers in on time. Amen"
Me: "Jon? What papers do I need to get in?"
Jonathan: "What? I don't know what you're talking about?"
Me: "Well you better figure it out and let me know when you do, cause you just prayed for it."
Then he looked at me bewildered for a moment.. and giggled and said
"He understands me." and rolled over and fell right to sleep.

I LOVE THAT BOY!! He keeps me laughing even when he is sleeping.

It kind of makes me wonder.. Has anyone else had this or something similar (conversations with sleeping people) happen to them? Let us know!!
