Our Life Together

Rexburg, ID, United States
We've been married for 5 years! We met here in Rexburg, Idaho where we lived in the same apartment complex, volunteered with similar church callings, and attended the same university. It was only a matter of time before we'd bump into each other! Kelly graduated with her bachelors in psychology and has since been working with mentally ill adults and children. She has been accepted to Drexel Univeristy for her Masters in Higher Education Administration and Organizational Management. Sam recently graduated from Brigham Young University-Idaho with his bachelors in English Literature. We've had so much fun and so many growing experiences in the past 5 years, and have weathered so much good and bad during our young marriage. And we love each other so much more as a result of the happy and sad experiences that we have gone through hand in hand with each other and with the Savior. Our life is a simple one, but it's ours and we're glad to have it.

Neverending Stor-or-reeee, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh


A couple of us were talking about The Neverending Story while hiking during our camping trip this past July. In answer to our question--Atreyu's horse was named Artax.

And I finally learned what Bastian renamed the Childlike Empress--Moon Child. What!? He said that that was his mother's name. Again: What!?

All this time I thought he yelled out a name that the audience just couldn't understand (or at least I certainly never could figure it out), so that it was left up to our imaginations.

I'm sorry Moon Child. I never knew.

I love this movie. Arlee and I will have to watch it now.

What was the creepy wolf's name? It's a classic.

Artax...no wonder we couldn't remember it =) I thought we had that movie but we have number 2. I'm going to have to get the first one!!

The wolf's name is Gmork. I always thought he was the Nothing; I guess he was just the servant of the Nothing.

I feel like a huge nerd right now, because I researched the Neverending Story on Wikipedia. Where's the next trekky convention, because apparently I need to be there.....with moon boots on and carrying a He-Man lunchbox.

Oh, and P.S. a adaptation of the neverending story is coming out in 2012. Boo-yah!
