yes, i am the cow wife.

so devin messed up BIG last week at our ward party. he's in the dog house, for real.

well, our ward opening social was last tuesday night and we were super excited because... food was there. lets face it - everyone goes for the food. anyways, we sit down at a table with the bishop and his wife, one of his counselor's and his wife, and this new couple in the ward. let me explain first of all that this couple hadn't been married very long AT ALL. we're talking, a couple weeks - max! annnnd they are SUPER awkward. so, devin and i are trying to make them feel comfortable and asking them tons of questions about themselves and dev is trying REALLY hard to make funny jokes. i thought they were funny but no one else was really laughing.

i finished eating and i kept drinking pretty much the whole pitcher of water that was at our table. i was SO thirsty! so i asked dev to go get me some more water from another table. he came back and this is what he said...

"i gotta keep my woman hydrated so she can lactate."

forget that i'm beyond embarrassed. remember who we are sitting with - BISHOP and his wife.... and his counselor... and the newly wed couple's jaws just drop. they keep looking at each other like OH CRAP, married wards really are as weird as everyone has warned us about!

so, i hit dev in the arm and he tries to defend himself and make it better by saying...

"what!?! i worked on a calf ranch and i had to keep all the lady cows hydrated so they could lactate for all their babies. i know what i'm talking about ash!"



GREAT. now, i am a cow. don't you just LOVE your husbands?
