Fish, Finals, and Friday

Jameson is finally done with all of his classes and finals.  It seems so weird that we have been married for a semester now.  I have been getting emails from my teachers for Spring semester and already have some homework.  I am excited to have something to do.  To have some new things to learn, and some challenges.  It will whip my laziness into shape!  I'm really looking forward to my cooking and sewing classes.  Chemistry...not so much.  It will be challenging with both of us going to school, but we'll get through it.

We're kind of really happy...

The weather is back to it's 'boring' stage.  It's been freezing, hailing, windy, pouring, snowing, and dreary.  How are we supposed to be happy and motivated in this state?  Work becomes boring because there is no sunlight to bring happiness.  I can't wait till we go to Utah next weekend (we'll cross our fingers that the weather gets a little better). 

For dinner tonight, I decided to make fish.  My family wasn't ever really into eating fish all that often, so I really wanted to try to make something new.  I didn't have many ingredients so I just made up recipes.  I put ranch and fresh cilantro on the tilapia, and then some butter and lemon pepper on the salmon (they were small portions, so we made two kinds).  I broiled them for about 6 minutes and then they were done.  It was so easy and I loved that!  We had some cilantro rice with them.  They were pretty good, but the tilapia didn't have the flavor I was looking for, I think I'll make a sauce for it next time.

We finished our Lord of the Rings marathon.  It's been years since I've watched them.  I remember Coleman was obsessed with them when we were younger, and he would watch them every single Saturday!  I'm pretty sure he's still obsessed, but at least he does some other things with his time now.  Well it's finally the weekend, and we're looking forward to it.  Especially seeing Jillian, yay!!!  It will be wonderful.

Apple Pie of Love

I made an apple pie today.. It was delicious (and nutritious, apples...apples are healthy)!  I attached some pictures of the pie so that you all could dream of eating it.  I didn't have an apple peeler, and our knives weren't doing a good job of getting the skins off (I tried to convince Jamie to let me go buy one, but he said that was lame and a waste of gas), so I was lazy and left them on.  It still tastes very good though. And look how great it turned out!

 Before the caramel....

After the caramel. 

MMMMM it was so good hot, with vanilla ice cream.  We ate it and watched Batman together, how could anything be more romantic? (I chose the movie)  Then we went for a good walk around Rexburg.  It was such a warm night and it was fun to walk around and just talk about nonsense.  I'm really looking forward to April: Conference, spring break, and Easter!  Oh, and Jameson's parents are coming for Jillian's graduation, so we're super excited to see them.  But then again, school starts at the end of April, so I only have about 18 days of freedom left.  Jameson is taking his finals this week and next, and he got an A on his business final today- super proud of him!  So lets just hope that he does well on the other finals, and that he gets a job.  He is so wonderful!
