I'm a little suspicious that Brent is trying to off me! I was cooking dinner last night, making some yummy fajitas. I get the meat out of the fridge where it had been marinating over night. I throw it in the pan & moments later a giant flame leaps out at me from under the back half of the pan!!! I scream!! I think that's pretty odd, we have an electric stove, not gas??? Then I think it must have been that a little of the oil I had put in the pan had gotten on the edge, maybe it just got too hot and burst into flames!!! Figuring that's all it was I assumed the danger had past since the oil would have burned off. I continue cooking and a few minutes later THE ENTIRE PAN BURST INTO FLAMES!!!! Thankfully I jumped back just in time to not become crispy fried! Now I'm a little freaked out!! Why does my dinner keep trying to kill me?!?!?! I'm CSIing it, oil is gone, what other "elements" are involved that could cause a fire? Then it occurred to me......BRENT!!!!! Brent had put a little tequila into the marinade (don't worry all the alcohol burns off & all that's left is yummy flavor)!!! So the tequila was catching on fire attempting to remove all hair from the front of my body. I swear I almost lost my eyebrows!!!  Let it be said I'm grateful to be alive post dinner prep!!!  Ok and I have to say Brent was in no way trying to harm me.  In fact he was very helpful to prepare the meat and get in all ready & marinating in the fridge!  He's pretty spectacular!
In case anyone was wondering our week with 4 kids went remarkably well!  Not to say it was easy!  Mom is the hardest job on the planet but it went well.  We made it to church on time, even a few minutes early.  I got all the kids in bed just fine the nights Brent was gone.  I think I decided 4 is too many!  Although I can't decide if it's 4, or 4 in 4 years, or 16 mo old twins!!!  But either way maybe we'll stick to 2 or 3!!  I did truly love seeing Brent with the kids!  He is going to be an amazing Daddy!  I can't wait to have little ones of our own!  I know being a parent  won't be easy but with Brent by my side it will be extremely doable!!!  We make a great team!!  We balance each other.  We are sensitive to each others needs (I have to go to the grocery store or die!!).  I feel very confidant that I got the best person for me!  I'm so glad I get to face the rest of life with him by my side!!

You're just lucky that Brent had 4 siblings that he helped take care of and babysit all of those years!
Sorry I didnt comment on this right way. It was SOOOOOOO FUNNY being on the phone with you when this happened! And your rappid sorrys for screaming in my ear :)
But I agree even though I havent met him in person you did get the best guy for you, and he got the best for him from what I have seen (pics) and heard you are one of those great couples that "Just fit" And when the time is right you are going to be kick butt parents :)
Did he just take out a large life insurance policy on you? (jk) You two seem like you are a really good team together and very well suited. I love reading your blog as you have quite the writing wit!
