So yesterday Nate and I, and Chelsea and Brandon Stewart, sit ourselves down for sacrament. Just your average Sacrament meeting.... NOT!!! We sit down, and then Chelsea is like, I think that's Stephenie Meyers (she says as she discretely points just to the left at the girl sitting in the pew right in front of us). I'm like, no way. But Chelsea is totally sure of it and notes the 3 boys, and then I noticed her husband who I recognized from pictures online. So then Matt Plumber, sitting behind us, gets up (sacrament hadn't started just yet) and taps her on the shoulder to ask if she was Stephenie Meyers (the author of Twilight), to which she nodded in affirmation. And then Nate leans to her and says," you've got a couple of huge fans over here" (nodding toward me and Chelsea). She then quickly turns to briefly smile and give a little wave which made me and Chelsea giggle like little school girls. In fact I giggle even now as I write this. But you could tell she didn't want to be bothered. And I don't blame her, especially with her children there. And if it were me I would expect a little privacy at church. So to answer all your burning questions.... no we did not get an autograph or speak to her out of respect for her privacy and the Sabbath. But OHHHH to be sitting right behind her. What a GLORIOUS DAY!! Best day ever really!! so cool.
And how cool is it to have someone that's no doubt a millionaire now, on vacation, and still gets her family to church?? One more reason for me to admire her. Wow.
On a side note, we get tons of visitors in our ward because we're the nearest church building to Disneyland. First time we've had someone famous like that, but not completely out of the ordinary because of all the visitors our ward gets.
Ridonkulous - something so ridiculous that the word ridiculous just doesn't quite convey the feeling.

Flight of the Conchords
Do yourselves a favor... go to YouTube and find this group and watch their videos. There's a bunch of them performing live and they are HILARIOUS. By far my favorites are "Business Time" and "Frodo, Don't Wear the Ring". Both have an actual music video, but be warned the Business Time one appeared to have briefly shown one of them nude, but blurred out, so you may want to just look for their live performance (although the lyrics kind of vary so the actual video is funnier in my opinion). And the Frodo one is only hilarious if you've seen the LOTR movies (Lord of the Rings). Soooooo freakin funny people. Please, seriously, if you need a good laugh, you will die of laughter. And if you don't, you're dead inside.
Oh, and if you haven't seen Achmed the Terrorist, look for that on YouTube too. It's a vantrilliquist performance that is ridiculously funny.
