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!

Things I am Thankful for...

Well with Thanksgiving just a week away I thought I would make a list of some things I am thankful for. Here goes...

*I am so very thankful for my husband, Dave. I love him so much, and I feel so lucky to have him in my live.

*I am grateful for the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. I know that Jesus is literally the son of God. He lived, an He lives still. He suffered all things for us so. He atoned for each one of us making it possible for us to live with Him and God, and all the people that we love after this life. He is our advocate. I know He lives.

*I am thankful for my family and Dave's family. They have done and do so much for us. We love their friendship and support.

*I am grateful that Jen, Dave's little sister, is on a mission. I love reading her letters. They are always so motivating to me.

*I am thankful for my 2nd grade class. I love teaching them. They make me laugh everyday. They are such great kids.

*I am grateful that we live in Village Green. It is such a fun home away from home. :) We love our neighbors and friends here.

*I am grateful that Dave is in medical school at Crieghton. I am also thankful that he is about halfway done with his 3rd year. Only 1 1/2 more years of this part of our adventures. I am excited to find out where we will be after that.

*I am thankful that my sister Cece got married a couple months ago. I am also grateful that my sister Lexie is getting married this weekend. I am so glad that they are happy!

*I am thankful for all the nice things that we have here in America. We are so blessed. Even in a recession there is so much excess compared to other places in the world. I feel so fortunate to live here.

*I am thankful for the men and women who serve in the armed forces. They help keep our country save everyday. I am grateful to those who have died fighting for our freedom. I am also thankful to the founders of our country.

*I am thankful that they Native Americans feed the Pilgrims. If not for them lots of us probably wouldn't be here.

*I am grateful to have my new car. It is a Subaru Legacy. I love it!

*I'm thankful for good food.

*I am thankful for warm clothes.

*I am grateful for ariplanes. Getting to Utah takes way to long otherwise.

*I am thankful for technology. I love that I can look up anything I need to know in about 2 seconds on the internet.

There are so many other things I am thankful for. I may add to this list. But I have to get ready for work now. So this is it for this morning. Today I am going to remember everything I am thankful for!! :)
