Brett and Amy's Wedding

I'm finally getting around to posting pictures from our trip to California for Brett's wedding in May! It was so much fun spending time with the Holbrook family. Congrats Brett and Amy!

Eating lunch after Amy's endowment session. So good!!

New Haircut

Not much news here! Hauni chopped off my hair yesterday! I haven't had my hair this length in a really long time! It will be much easier to take care of. Todd is at his meetings and he has a 12 page paper due tomorrow. I hope that he can somehow find time today to finish it! Oh the end of this semester can't come soon enough. Todd has been sick for the last week with a cold and I thought that I might be lucky enough not to catch it...I'm pretty sure I'm getting sick now though. This last week has been pretty hard on us! We've been SO busy with school stuff. On Friday I woke up to get ready for work and I felt everything start to spin! I threw up and realized that I couldn't move my head or my eyes because I would just start feeling so dizzy. Todd called a nurse and she said it was most likely a flu virus that was in my ear and was messing with my equilibrium. Needless to say, I had no problem staying in bed all day long!! I don't really want to get a cold now though!

Back in the Singles Ward...

I thought I would take this chance while Todd is busy with meetings to do a quick update. Life is busy, as always, but we are getting so excited for April and the end of this very long winter semester! Todd received a call to serve as second counselor in the BYU 51st ward and we have been there for about a month now. I feel a little young to be a "Sunday widow" but oh well! I can see how much growth will come from this calling and what a neat experience it will be- especially for Todd! Because of the time change, he had to get up extra early this morning to go to his meetings (6:30...which was really like 5:30). We meet for church in the JSB on campus at 10:20. I love the church time, but I'm still getting used to sitting at desks for sacrament meeting again! We love the ward! Everyone is just so friendly and we are quickly learning names.

Right now we are trying to find internships. Todd has an interview on Tuesday for a BYU rep position that would require him to travel around Utah and Idaho and speak in high schools about BYU. I think he would be perfect for that job! We are looking forward to going to California in May for Brett and Amy's wedding! They are such a great couple and it is going to be so much fun being with everyone! I'm sorry that we are such poor bloggers! Someday I will be better about updating this thing! Love you all!

The month of January!

Looking down our street

Well this month has flown by! Todd and I have been keeping busy. We are in full swing with school now and have our first test this week. We are taking an online accounting class so hopefully that goes well. Todd is still working as a publicity writer for the Performing Arts Management at BYU and gets tickets to all of the fun events at BYU. We saw the Dance Company last friday and will be going to see the young ambassadors perform this coming friday. I work in Special Collections in the library for the curator of the Photographic Archives. As you can see from the picture, we had quite the time shoveling our driveway/sidewalk when we came back from Christmas break. We had so much ice on our driveway! It was good exercise!

I found a fossilized ice footprint when I was clearing the snow off the driveway.

ARIZONA- Earlier this month I got to fly to Arizona and have a girls weekend with Meg, Hauni, and my mom! It was so nice to get away from the cold. In our short stay we were able to go see the Lion King, do a temple session, attend a fireside by Elder Bednar, get together with some family, and go bike riding. Thanks so much Meg for all of your planning! It was a fun weekend!

Thanks for the Christmas/B-day present mom!

Todd was excited for me to get home. He had the house all clean, went grocery shopping, taught our sunday school lesson, and got me these beautiful flowers! I love you, babe!

We got to celebrate Julie's birthday this last weekend. The girls went and saw Bride Wars and then the boys met up with us for lunch at Applebees.

Von got in the way of Julie...

What a great smile!

An update

Hello everybody! I just wanted to do a quick update because we never post anything! We are both going to school this semester and working so we keep pretty busy. We are excited that we both have only ONE year left at BYU...and then we will move somewhere (Who knows where!) and Todd will get a masters in communications. Todd is excited about a new season of LOST and I am trying to convince myself to get back outside (brrr...) and start running again. These are the only images I have readily available...so enjoy! Oh, and Happy Valentines Day if I don't blog before then :-)
