Spring time update!

So I have been terrible about keeping up with our blog so here is an update of what has been happening lately for us!

First, Mike's birthday on March 3rd. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHAEL!

We had some family and friends over for dinner and cake!

Bree, Natalie, and I also performed a dance for Michael! :) 

This tradition all started with a dance they did for me on my birthday.

Next was Easter! We had some family over for a nice Easter dinner. 

The dinner included jello eggs and Easter cupcakes. 

We also did and Easter egg hunt. We hid 47 eggs in our little kitchen area. 

It was fun to watch everyone. 

The last big event that has happened for us was my graduation! I graduated in

December but I did not walk till this April. It was fun to have so much family there.

Thanks everyone for your love and support!

It has been a very fun few months. We are already behind on new events happening. We have been traveling a lot to Logan for a cousin coming home from his mission and Emily's graduation. We will be heading to Layton this weekend for a cousin leaving on a mission. So many fun family gatherings! Hopefully everyone is enjoying the summer like we are!

Our Apartment!

We have had some requests from people to see pictures of our apartment. So here are the pictures of our little basement apartment!

Here is the view from the front door. The door you see in the picture leads

to a large storage area.

Take a left and here is the kitchen!

Take another left and here is a view of our spacious "front room" and "dinning room"

It is a walk in closet that goes farther to the right when you walk in.

The Valentine Gift Failure

We had our first Valentine's Day as a married couple and it was great! We had cinnamon rolls for breakfast and we went to Costa Vida for dinner. It was a lot of fun. Then we had a small gift exchange. We don't have much money so I thought it would be great to get Mike two of his favorite treats for Valentine's Day, since we never buy them. I got him snickers bars and twinkies. He always talks about snickers bars and our freshman year he would always as our student coordinator to get him twinkies (she never did). So I thought this would be great. We exchange gifts and he gets me my favorite candy bar. He then asks me what made me pick twinkies. I tell him why, and then notice the look on his face. Turns out he doesn't like twinkies! Fail! I guess he never really wanted them freshman year he just thought it was funny, and he knew our student coordinator would never get them for him. I guess I should have asked first.... next time I'll know better.

Mike and I went down to Las Vegas, to visit my brother Mark and his wife Natalie, over Martin Luther King Day weekend. We had a great time going to Hoover Dam and seeing the awesome new suspension bridge. We also walked along the strip and saw the water show at the Bellagio and drove through Red Rock Park. It was a fun weekend. We also enjoyed playing games at their new house. My mom came to Vegas for the weekend too which made it even better. Mark and Natalie are great hosts! We really enjoyed the weekend!

So to start, Mike and I were married on September 30, 2011 in the Logan Utah Temple. It was an awesome day and everything went perfectly! Mike is still in school studying chemical engineering and I just graduated in December in athletic training. Mike has 3 semesters left till he graduates. I am currently working at a doctor's office in Orem as an Exercise Specialist.

Our New Blog

Well since we are married and I am now graduated I have decided to start a blog! This will give me something to do while Mike is doing homework :) Hopefully you all enjoy this as much as I do!
