Mormon Culture

Ha. Ha. I am curious as to your first thought when you hear that phrase?

I can think of over 2343466454 ones. We truly are a peculiar people.

I'm actually curious as to what you think is werid/random in the mormon culture. please comment below.

So today at Church in my parents family ward I saw one of my friends from highschool sitting awfully close to a girl(now he has 5 sisters) so I was checking heads to see which one it was and BAM it was none of them. [little background on my group of friends from highschool, none of us ever really had relationships we all hung out as groups and RARELY paired off, so see my guy friends getting married and having babies is really werid to me] even werider is seeing the kid in my sunday school class growing up who use to pick his scabs and eat them sitting so closely to a girl, and having his arm around her. SO WERID. I don't get to see "Jeff" very often. He lives in another city and we frankly just grew apart between going to school and serving missions. We hang out when we're home and have class gatherings but I haven't really had a heart to heart with him for a while so I had no idea if he was dating her or even how serious it was.

So what do I do. The NORMAL thing to do would be to ask him, since we are such good friends, however I think I am a little detective and so I wanted to find out on my own. I waited until she put her arm around him and BAM no RING, so I assume it's not THAT serious. Ha.

Ok girls/guys how many of us have done that? I admit I do it all the time. Especially when I'm in the homeland(Utah or Rexburg) when meeting a member of the opposite sex I always without FAIL look at the left ring finger. That finger sure says alot about a person does it not? Can I get an AMEN? HA! If there is anything on that ring, I smile and walk the other way-why waste your time getting to know that person? HA HA....oh frig I'm funny... no but seriously.

Story about this. A couple weeks ago at football I got a blister on my foot so I was sitting out playing with one of the guys dogs, and we were next to a play ground and this way hot guy with a little kid( I know the kid should have tipped me off, but it didn't) and he came over to see the dog and I was playing it cool(may or may not have pretended louis-the dog was mine) he brought his left hand up to pet the dog and there was a white gold wedding band ENCRUSTED with diamonds(ps I don't like it when guys have diamonds on their wedding band. just me tho) and I promptly stopped paying attention to him and went back to playing football.

It's that simple- if they have a ring on, I peace out.

Child of The YEAR!

Well if I can't be blogger of the year- I might as well be daughter of the year right?

I'm going home next weekend because my mom is getting surgery on Monday so I was planning on giving her, her Mothers Day present next weekend. However on Saturday afternoon I was bored so I called my dad and told him I was planning on coming down to Taber to surprise my mom for dinner.

I drove down there secretly hoping she would call and ask what I was doing so I could lie to her- cause seriously how many times do you get to actually lie to your mom and get away with it. LIKE NEVER...especially if you're me. My mom knows everything.

6pm rolls around- my dad stalled my mom and sister for dinner so I could surprise my mom, and I did just that. With 18 long stem roses in hand. The first words out of her mouth were "what the heck are you doing here" I'm pretty sure she MEANT to say "WOW, I'm so excited your here, this is the best surprise ever" but she didn't HA. I'll assume she liked the surprise :)

Happy Mothers day Momma. Hope you had a good day and enjoyed the loot you got. You're the best and I'm so glad you're my mom. I'd probably be dead in a gutter by now if you didn't constantly worry and check up on me. Thanks for all you do.

xoxo
