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!

Update... and Happy 24th

Happy Pioneer Day Everyone!! :) We have a fun day ahead of us. We are going to breakfast with my family up at Ruth's Diner in Immigration Canyon. Then this afternoon we are going to Dave's Aunt and Uncle's house for a pool party. BBQ at my parent's after that and then fireworks ! :)

Ok so here are the Pictures from our fun day!!




Yay! Let the fun begin!

So... here's an update because we have been so busy lately! As you know we are moving next week to Omaha, Nebraska. We are so excited and so sad at the same time. We are ready to get going, Dave is antsy to begin school again, and I am nervous and excited to begin teaching my new class of 2nd graders. Dave and I haven’t been working for a few months now, which has been so fun, but we are ready to do something. And… it’s all starting next Tuesday.
When we were in Omaha a few weeks ago we found this great townhouse. It is in a really nice location and almost everyone who lives there are students at Creighton. Many of them are LDS too. So I we will have lots of people doing the same things as us around. It'll be a fun place to live.
We are going to do a little bit of updating to our townhouse when we get to Omaha. Every day we are talking about colors and ideas! It is so fun. Dave is going to tile the kitchen and entry way. He can’t wait to begin. I am going to paint. Yay!!! No more white walls!! When we are finished it will look so great!

We have had so many fun things going on the last couple of weeks. Here are some of the things we have been up to and some pictures….
Dave’s cousin, Justin went to the temple for his endowment and left on his mission.

Greg’s sister and I had a wedding shower for Kami, which was so fun. I will miss her wedding, Dave may be able to come back for it though! :) She is such a sweet girl. We are really excited for them!

We saw Dave's cousin, Melanie star in Singing in the Rain at Hale Theater. She is so awesome! Even Dave loved watching the play because of her! :)

I got my hair done! I Finally cut it, I have been wanting to for a while.. but I always chicken out. Then we hung out with Chelsie and Martin. They are the sweetest friends and some of the most generous people we know. Thanks you guys.
Natalie Nickel's wedding shower... I will be gone for her wedding too! :( So sad, I guess I will be missing a lot of weddings over the next 4 years... maybe 8. Who knows where we will be for Dave's residency. Nat looks so beautiful. I am so excited for her and Nick.


And of course throughout all of the excitement we have been packing up our apartment. It looks crazy right now, almost everything is packed into a box. You dont even want to see a picture! Ha
Some of the girls I grew up with went to dinner with me... last time I'll see them at least until Christmas. :( Goodbye is sad. Shanelle was there, but I didn't get a picture of her... Sorry
