ThE pAsT 16 mOnThS

I started this blog back in July and I got so busy with school I never got back on after that... my bad!  So this post will catch everyone up on our last 16 months of bliss!


Back during the Summer of 2010 we started it off by getting married and spending a week in California. We enjoyed Disneyland for 3 days, Went to an Angels baseball game, relaxed by the pool for a couple of days, and then had to come back to reality and work. We then went down to St George for the fourth of July with Andrew's family and enjoyed the weekend at his grandparents house playing games and swimming. Our first summer being married ended when school started back up in August.

During the Fall of 2010 our lives seemed crazy and we didn't see each other much because we were both working full time, going to school full time, and trying to keep up with our homework. Somehow we survived. The holidays came and went way to fast. Halloween we didn't do much because it was on a Sunday and we both had homework that needed to be done. (we dressed up as soccer players... go figure right).
Our first Thanksgiving married was very eventful.... We slept in until about 9:30 when we decided we should get up and clean our appartment before heading off to our families for lunch/dinner. We set up our Christmas tree and were getting ready to decorate it with all our cute decorations when all of a sudden I could hear water running.... I walk down our hallway to our bedroom to find water pouring from the ceiling. Yes our appartment was flooding, our landlords were out of town, and we had no idea where the water shut off was outside....lets just say it was a big mess. We finally cleaned everything up thanks to my awesome cousin who came to the rescue to help us get the walls and carpet dried out. Then we headed to Andrew's families for Thanksgiving dinner!


Christmas was super busy trying to see all of our families, if you ask me it wasn't relaxing at all but we had a great time.

New Years 2011 We went to the Lyon cabin were we enjoyed playing games, snowmobiling, eating, snowmobiling, sledding, snowmobiling... did I mention snowmobiling? What better way to bring in the new year!!!

We blazed our own trail all the way to the summit!!! That's the road sign.

The two old snowmobiles are the best!!!

Spring 2011 (extended winter 2011) School started again but Andrew and I got to take a math class together which was great, nothing better than having a built in tutor... We enjoyed lots of snowmobiling because winter went on forever, most people were complaining about the weather while we thought we would just enjoy it. During April I got the most exciting phone call... I was accepted into U of U's partnership NURSING program with SLCC.

Summer 2011 I started the nursing program at SLCC. I was able to go part time at work so that I could have the time for school and homework (happy day). While life was super crazy and I have no idea where the summer went, Andrew and I still managed to have some fun. We were able to spare some time and head to St George for our anniversary, we spent most of our time laying by the pool (studying..).

Summer has now come to an end and I'm already missing the warm weather but I can't tell you how excited I am for the SNOW because that means snowmobiling is just around the corner :)
