August 14th 2007
Welcome to our blog! Dave and I were married August 14th 2007 in the Salt Lake LDS Temple. I can't speak for Dave, but I love being married! ~I am pretty sure he does too. :) It is so great to have someone to share my life with. We have so much fun together. We love traveling and spending time with our family and friends. Here is a little bit more about us...
Dave served a 2 year religious mission in the Dominican Republic. He then graduated from the University of Utah with a degree in business finance while also completing his pre-medical requirements. He attended Creighton University school of medicine. He started in the fall of 2009. He is now a resident in dermatology and internal medicine at University of Wisconsin hospitals.
I graduated from the University of Utah in Elementary Education. I taught 2nd grade at Bancroft Elementary. Bancroft is a great school and I loved working with everyone there. When Cole was born I decided to stay at home with him. I am loving every minute of my time with him.
We have made so many great friends in Omaha and in Madison. But we still love and miss our family and friends in Utah! We hope this blog will help them feel connected to us, even if we aren't around as much as we'd like to be. Enjoy!

Summer!!

It is super rainy today here in Omaha, but it is summer vacation. Yay!! I am so happy! I LOVE summer so much. Last week was my last student day. This week I had work time in my room, and planning time for summer school. I am teaching a few weeks of summer school and my friend, and co-worker is teaching the other two weeks for me. Dave and I will be out of town (California) and then I will be at girl's camp. I cannot wait!


Cali will be especially fun and relaxing because Dave will be done with the step one medical boards. Whew! He is studying so hard. Seriously I have never seen him study so much for so long. It is a 7-hour test, so definitely not something you can cram for. I will be so relieved for him when it is over. I know he will be happy to have it over. Cross your fingers for him! I am sure he is going to do really well. :) But he could use all the prayers he can get to help him through these last couple weeks of studying.


I haven't posted in a while and I have lots of pictures so here are some picture updates...


The Donut Stop, this place is only open at 9pm until morning. Weird! This is one of the wall decorations. haha
