Git er dun!

(Spencer's post) I believe it is important to continue courting your spouse well after the wedding date. However, good opportunities to display my unique set of talents do not come along everyday. Fortunately for everyone involved, the moons aligned themselves just right and I was able to put both Edward and Jacob to shame.

We were at Home Depot Friday night, buying something we probably didn't need when Cynthia noticed that the patio furniture her and Kaitlyn were relaxing on was on a super duper sale. We needed to own this, and we needed to own this now. However, my practical wife pointed out that the box for this four piece set of furniture was WAY to big to fit in our car. At this point we had a few options:

Rent the Home Depot truck to deliver it (their truck was gone and kind of expensive)
Have Home Depot deliver it (expensive)
Try to con some neighbor or ward member into helping (pretty much the worst idea ever)
Or option "Git er Dun" (involves a lot of rope and imagination)

While slowly driving home on the highway with this larger than life display of awesomeness giving figuritive "high-fives" to all the men we passed, Cynthia's face literally glowed red with pride. (The whole time I was strapping this thing on in the parking lot and driving home, the "Real men of genius" song from the beer commercial was playing in my head.)

Additionally, I would like to give a birthday Shout out to my wife Cynthia. I really appreciate the wonderful life you create for Kaitlyn and I. I am particularly grateful for your patience through all my ideas (great and less great). I sure love you and feel very lucky to have you.
