"Can You Pass the Test?"

Tonight for our date we looked up a few personality tests online and took them. Do you think our personalities are compatible?

Here are the results from the Color Code test. Are two people that are the same color supposed to be compatible? Well, even if not, we most definitely are!!

Dave’s Basic Analysis
Congratulations, you are a BLUE (54.11%).

Natalie’s Basic Analysis
Congratulations, you are a BLUE (46.32%).

Blues (Motive: Intimacy)

Blues are motivated by Intimacy. They seek to genuinely connect with others, and need to be understood and appreciated. Everything they do is quality-based. They are loyal friends, employers, and employees. Whatever or whomever they commit to is their sole (and soul) focus. They love to serve and give of themselves freely in order to nurture others' lives.

Blues have distinct preferences and have the most controlling personality. Their personal code of ethics is remarkably strong and they expect others to live honest, committed lives as well. They enjoy sharing meaningful moments in conversation as well as paying close attention to special life events (e.g. birthdays and anniversaries). Blues are dependable, thoughtful, and analytical; but can also be self-righteous, worry-prone, and moody. They are "sainted pit-bulls" who never let go of something or someone once they are committed. When you deal with a BLUE, be sincere and make a genuine effort to understand and appreciate them.

"Soap on a Roap"

This week it was all about soap!! It was really hard to come up with ideas for dinner! We ended up having "Lemon Fresh" Chicken (breaded chicken with lemon sauce), "Spuds" (instead of suds), salad, and french bread. To drink I mixed lime sherbet with 7-Up. It is green like Irish Spring soap and very foamy/sudsy. I didn't take pictures, I promise to be better!!

The activity was a soup carving contest. We didn't end up doing it!!

Dessert was Dove ice cream bars. They were delicious!!

After Tanner went to bed, we had a second activity. Upstairs in the bathroom, I had set up a very romantic and relaxing bubble bath. It was complete with tea light candles all over the bathroom, a bubble bath, bubbles to blow, and some bubbly. It was very relaxing and good to just spend time together. Now we just need a bigger bathtub!! Ours is regular sized and too small!!

"Choo Choo"

This week was a very low key date. We had pizza for dinner and played "Ticket to Ride". Dave isn't a big fan of board games but was a good sport and played with me. We had fun and he actually liked it. He even asked if we could play again sometime!

"Pick a Word"

This week Dave picked "Pick a Word" and the word he decided on was "fate". For our "Fate Date" we:

F- wore Forest green shirt and Flip Flops
A- ate at Archibald's restaurant
T- visited The village quilt shop
E- went to the Eclipse concert
T- talked about "T" topics
A- had Applesauce spice cake for dessert and
F- French kissed!

I had to be a little creative with the word since it wasn't quite long enough! It was a fun night and of course, I forgot my camera again.

4th of July - Part 2

Last night we put our shirts to use. It wasn't just the three of us, but it was fun!! Unfortunately, I don't have pictures.

We met my parents, Rach & Cam, Cyd & Nora, and Rebecca for a KFC pic-nic and to watch the Stadium of Fire Fireworks in Provo. Tanner crashed before they started, but woke up with the first bangs. He seemed to really like them! It was a good show and fun to be with Family. We finished off the night with star shaped donuts.

July Temple Trip - "Take a Walk" Treat

Last night we went to the Temple. We met at the Lunts house and had dinner with them. While we went to the Temple, Cam and Rach watched Tanner.

It was so nice to be back in the Temple, but man, that was the busiest I have ever seen it! We got the just after 7:00 pm, so we knew we had missed the 7:00 session. We got put into the Marriage waiting room, then when they filled the 7:30 session, we moved into the chapel. The 8:00 session filled up, without us making it into it either... We were on the front row for the 8:30 session and I was pretty upset because it was so much longer than we had planned and I was worried about Tanner and feeding him, and bedtime, and, and... Then they asked us to be the witness couple.

I calmed down and the session was great. We were the first ones in the Celestial Room. We stayed for just a minute, said a prayer together, then went to get Tanner. When we got to the car, there were a couple of texts and a voicemail from Rachel. Tanner wasn't handling it so well and had spent most of the time screaming. Poor Lunts! Oh well, next time we will have to go at a different time of day!!

We were supposed to "take a walk" to a bakery and get a treat. But since it was well after 10:00, we didn't. My mom had left a couple of Shirley's cinnamon rolls for us at Rachel's, so we decided that would just have to do! Although it was really long and a little stressful, it was very good to be back in the Temple!
