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!

Ok this is getting good...

The house is looking so much better. Everything is still in disarray BUT we are getting close to having a kitchen again.

Dave has been working SO hard all week to get the tile in the kitchen and entry way. Last night he put down the last of it!!! YAY! He has done such a nice job. :) It looks great. I grouted the most of the kitchen last night and then some this morning. So this evening we will be able to put our fridge and stove and everything else back in there. That will be so nice. Not only will we be able to stop going out to eat for basically every meal but we will also have a family room again!! All the kitchen stuff is in there right now.

All the walls are painted, the moldings still need to be finished, but even the moldings (which look like they haven’t been painted since the 80’s) look better with color on the walls.

Anyway enough of my blabbering, here are some pictures…




















K the “Bud Family” gave us a great BBQ for our wedding and we couldn’t have it out at our apartment so we are finally getting it put together. THANKS GUYS!! We are so excited to use our BBQ! We finally have the perfect spot for it.
