Day 28

What makes you smile?

Jostlyn: Carson. Good food. Genuinely good people. Passionate artists. Jazz music. Singing. Funny movies. Holidays. Old houses.

Carson: When my wife understands me. When I succeed. 

Day 27

Would you break the law to save a loved one?

Jostlyn: Will this incriminate me later? Yes, if it's a matter of saving their life, I would.

Carson: Yes.

Day 26

How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?

Jostlyn: uh.. well someone the other day thought I was 28? haha. I'd say 24?

Carson: 25

Day 25

When is it time to stop calculating risk and rewards and just do what you know is right?

Jostlyn: I already do that with my religion. But in life in general.. sometimes I don't "know" what is the right thing to do.. sometimes the "right" thing to do is calculate risk and reward and that is your answer. 

Carson: I already do that. I think this is a dumb question. 

Day 24

When you are 80-years-old, what will matter to you the most?

Jostlyn: God and my family. No Brainer. My husband, my children, my grandchildren. My relationships with them. How I've treated them. Preparing to leave this life and enter into the next (obviously doing that all along in my life, but I think as I get older it will become more of a reality to me). 

Carson: My religion and my wife, my family, my kids. Money will not mean anything. 

Day 23

Are you holding onto something that you need to let go of?

Jostlyn: hmm. I don't know? I mean, I got rid of a lot of stuff last weekend and gave it to the D.I. ;) But in all honesty, I think I'm pretty good with everything in my life? 
Carson: Yes.

Day 22

What would you regret not fully doing, being or having in your life?

Jostlyn: I'll answer all.

 I would regret not doing photography. Sometimes I have my days where I just want to quit. I get overwhelmed and I need to learn to balance my life better. I also get overwhelmed with the fact there's still so much I have to learn to get to where I want to be.. I feel so far away from my goal sometimes. BUT, at the same time, it's something that makes me so happy, and when I can make someone else happy because of this talent, THAT'S when it's worth it to me. That's when it's worth it at the end of the day. 

I would regret not fully being myself. For a while I would "play the game" but now.. if you like me for who I am, that's awesome. If you don't, then that's ok too. I understand I won't be liked by everyone, and that's a GOOD thing. That means I have things I stand for, believe in, and my own personality. I'm not going to mold to something else based on who I'm with. This is me. Take it or leave it. 

I would regret not having the gospel of Jesus Christ in my life. There have been times when I haven't been the most active member and I don't like who I am when I'm not strong in the gospel. I can't imagine what it would be like if I didn't have it at all in my life. 

Carson: I would regret it if I came into this planet as a woman. Definitely would regret that like... 100 times over. But in all honesty, I would regret not marrying Jostlyn. She turned me into the man I am today and thankfully thats a really really good thing. I was kinda a train wreck before her and I would be an even worse train wreck had I passed her up.

^^ awww... isn't he the sweetest?
