Good thing blue is my fav color

Take this test!
You're blue — the most soothing shade of the spectrum. The color of a clear summer sky or a deep, reflective ocean, blue has traditionally symbolized trust, solitude, and loyalty. Most likely a thoughtful person who values spending some time on your own, you'd rather connect deeply with a few people than have a bunch of slight acquaintances. Luckily, making close friends isn't that hard, since people are naturally attracted to you — they're soothed by your calming presence. Cool and collected, you rarely overreact. Instead, you think things through before coming to a decision. That level-headed, thoughtful approach to life is patently blue — and patently you!

I'm an orange, how 'bout you?

Take this test!
You're a bold, confident orange. A warm, powerful color that indicates a strong, welcoming personality, orange is the mark of people who are social and extroverted by nature. Vibrant, with an upbeat attitude, you have a bright, inviting demeanor. Energetic and fun-loving, you're a real friend-magnet. Your easy charm and unassuming manner make you the sort of person people want to meet and get to know better. Well-rounded and fun to be around, you enjoy helping others, so it's no surprise that orange also symbolizes attraction. Orange is an extraordinary color — for an extraordinary person.

Jed

So there is a new man in my life. His name is Jedediah Bryce Goodell. He is 24, from West Virginia, a student at BYU (majoring in mechanical engineering, minoring in math, thinking about working with computers, like for graduate school, since that's what his job is now and he loves it), and the oldest of 8. Yes, 8! However don't get nervous, he only wants to have 3-4, like me.
He served his mission in Chile, speaks Spanish, loves fish (he has like 15, in two tanks), and plays frisbee a lot. He is a really good singer, guitar player, trumpet player, and Rock Band Hero.
Anyways, I am in love with this goober and I seriously plan on marrying him. It's not that I can see myself with him for the rest of my life, it's that I can't see myself without him for the rest of eternity. :)
Dad has already met him, along with the Utah Busaths, excluding Brad & Jonni, and all of the Utah Burnetts. I think Dad liked him. I know he liked Dad and everyone else. He thought Steve Busath was funny and really liked Grams and Mary. Those are the the comments I remember him making, but there were more good ones.
I can't wait for all of you who haven't met him to do so. Tom hangs out with us pretty frequently and they both have told me how much they like each other. Laurel will meet him in April when her and Nathan come out to visit. He and I are planning a trip to both of our homes in May, so that's whenI'll meet his family and he'll meet Mom, Ang, Jeff, & Pepper.
I just wanted to put all of that out there... Love you all!!
