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!

Kids say the cutest things...

I always forget the things that my second graders say that make me laugh. So I am going to write one that I remember from this week. I wish I could remember all the funny things they do and say.

Ok, so one of the darling little girls in my class this year, who is a great reader, was reading aloud to the class. We were looking through a powerpoint about Mexican American culture. She was reading the slide that talked about the type of foods that are specific to the Mexican Culture.

When she got to the words spices and herbs, she read "spiceys and Herberts". So she read, "Mexican food is well known for its many different flavors, beautiful colors, decorations, and a variety of spiceys and herberts."

It was so cute and funny to me I couldn't even correct her. I was giggling behind my hand. :) Lol!! Non of the kids even realized, or at least no one corrected her. So I guess if my class ever meets a Herbert they are going to be be very confused!


On a different note two of my neighbors had beautiful baby boys this week. My next door neighbor Mandi and Chad, and Marissa and Brad. They are both darling babies! Another of our good friends, Lisa and Matt are due next week. There are so many cute babies around Village Green right now. It is really fun. :)
