bits and pieces of wife life

-part of being an animation wife means the past four movies we've seen at the theater are: Inside Out, The Good Dinosaur, Kung Fu Panda 3, and Zootopia (twice). i'm definitely not complaining since they were all entertaining! thanks to chris, i'm learning to appreciate the beauty and textures of every single frame ;) but this new world does make me laugh a little because it's so different from what i'm used to. my brother and his wife only consider action packed movies when picking movies to go see haha and my family would rarely go see animated movies as a kid. but i also have to add...

-Zootopia really was incredible. you know it is when you go see it with thirty animation students and they give the movie a standing ovation AND chris has absolutely z e r o criticism.

^stole this from one of chris' friends.

-that feeling when your husband invites a friend to see your apartment and you know that there are dishes in the sink and the couch is covered in homework but you smile anyways. i now understand why my mom always made us clean the living room before people came over. i get it now.

-i tried making a cream sauce the other day. chris got excited i was experimenting and decided to help. the whole thing ended with us getting our favorite burritos from down the street.

-chris' brother was in town and he wanted to go to this restaurant called sushi burrito. as much as i love burritos, i'm a little bit of a purist when it comes to sushi so i set my expectations really low. like, i didn't have any at all. good news though! it was decently good and i would go again if someone paid for me.

 

-chris: (gazing at me lovingly) you are so beautiful. me: you have egg on your face.

-there's a new temple in town but before it opened, chris and i went to the open house on the last possible day and it really was as beautiful as everyone said.

-after having another laptop give up on me a few months ago, chris surprised me with a new one the other day. i was so surprised, all i said was "what?" but i'm a happy girl now :)

-we're going to japan in august!! we saved some money from our wedding budget and are spending it on a late honeymoon. we've already picked out the restaurants we want to visit so i'd say we have our priorities straight ;)

-it makes me happy that chris makes good dinners. it's usually an asian fusion of some kind with avocado on the side, which i have no complaints about!

-it made my wifey heart proud when chris told me he now loves kale.

-being married pushes me to be the best person i can be. i'm definitely a work in progress.
