Mission Impossible

On Friday's and Saturday's during the summer Jacob had to work and I didn't  That usually meant cleaning, cooking and grocery shopping.  But instead of doing that boring stuff, today I decided to make a big mess and create a game for him to play when he got home from work.  I got the lazer idea from Pinterest (of course) but the whole part about the balloons and the mission impossible part mixed with the lazers I had a dream about haha so of course I had to do it!  I couldn't find any red string or yarn (I walked to the BYU bookstore) so I got streamers.  People have asked me how long it took me to set up, and I think that it took about 45 minutes...roughly...I wasn't timing.  So I wrote him his mission, taped it on the door and waited. 

I heard the door open and he immediately started playing his role, no laughing, he just got his gun and went at it! He did a really good job!    He ended up doing it two more times and I did it as well.   Pretty much he thought I was the best wife ever, and I thought he was the best cause he had a great time doing my silly activity.   We had to take the streamers down so we could get around, but the balloons are going to stay up for target practice. 

Live is sometimes mundane and sometimes feels as though we just do the same things over and over, wake up, eat, get ready, go to work, come home sleep.....but we just have to remember to cherish every moment, be spontaneous, make memories and love life.
