Oklahoma City Temple

I went to the Oklahoma City Temple today, it's a beautiful temple! It's a mini temple and I do mean mini!

They do sessions from 9am to 1pm, then they have a big break during the day and then have two sessions in the evening. I made it to the 1pm session. It was a wonderful experience and a beautiful day. I was one of the last one's to leave and I was trying to snap a few pics before I left. I was just setting my camera up on my car with the self timer so I could run and get in the pic, but my battery died! Oh well, next time I go, I'll make sure my battery is fully charged and I'll get some more pictures of the grounds and a better one with me in it!

My New Toy!!!

So here I am, starting my own blog. We'll see how long it takes me to figure out how it all works! I bought a new toy this week, it's a really big toy... 46" big! 

After many many years of saving my pennies, I finally bought a t.v. It also helps that I'm not a poor starving college student anymore and I'm living off a nurses salary! I bought a Sharp 46" full 1080p television. It is probably the prettiest thing I've ever bought. I can't even describe how clear and vibrant the picture quality is. It's absolutely astounding!
Now as to what movie I watched first, it was a difficult decision. There were many options to consider, and after much deliberation I chose: Serenity

As a  Sci-Fi fan, the options were narrowed down but still numerous. Seeing as how Firefly is my all time favorite show, I couldn't watch all 14 episodes in one shot, so I decided on Serenity. This choice encompasses the humor, drama, character development, story arc, and special effects, even if it is a bitter-sweet resolution to a phenomenal story.

So this is my latest toy! Now I can start hosting my own movie nights!
