Recent Doins

So pretty much it's hard to come up with interesting blogs when we don't have kids yet, and when we're in between vacations. :)

But here's a list of our recent doings:

  • I finished my second to last semester of college!!! All I have left is student teaching. Woot Woot!!!
  • May 1st was my brother Shawn's birthday as well as Tyler and my anniversary. 2 Years! We celebrated by going out to eat in Salt Lake, going to the Jazz game, and staying at the Hilton. :) It was wonderful!
  • Tyler is working for Big Dog once again. This time however, he is selling insulation, solar panels, and windmills. He's enjoyed it so far, and we are excited to see how the summer goes.
  • We are currently living in Rexburg, ID and it has been FREEZING!! We're living here while Tyler completes some training as well as everything ready in Oregon for us to go sell out there. We will be leaving to Oregon the end of this month or beginning of the June. Tyler's family has been kind enough to allow us to crash at their place during these weeks we're in Idaho.
  • I am learning how to play the piano. Tyler's sister Emily is teaching me. :) I can now master the right hand of Lullaby, Ode to Joy, Head Shoulders Knees and Toes, and It's Raining It's Pouring. Amazing, I know! :)
  • I am so excited to read a book for FUN!!! Yay! I am currently reading Fablehaven. It's nice because it's fun, super easy read, and pretty much I'm just happy to be reading. Tyler's brother Jacob has all 5 books. So that's been nice!
  • I am also working on finalizing a short children's picture book that I will hopefully get published. :) Shawn has agreed to drawing the pictures if there is good enough potential for him to make millions. :) jk... but he did say he was interested whether or not it bombs.
  • Next weekend Tyler and I will head back down to Utah to visit because Shawn and my adorable nephew Lincoln are coming up from Arizona to visit. It will also be my 22nd birthday. So I get to party with them. :)
Well, that's about all for now. I can't find our camera or I'd post a few pictures from our Anniversary.
We hope everyone is happy and well!!!

I miss you Kara! How exciting! Sounds like an adventure for you right now. I wish we were in Oregon only to cross paths with you guys there and show you around, but I'm glad we're back in UT. You've got to go to Silver Falls to hike around, that's where they filmed or are filming parts of the Twilight saga! Well I'm glad you updated your blog and to hear you guys are doing good. Congrats on being closer to being a teacher!
