Thank you all who sent sweet birthday notes to Matthew this year. We had a wonderful day celebrating Matthew's 28th birthday with our friends the Laney's and Fontoura's at a local sports bar and grill here in Florida. The best part was the surprise element! For those of you who know me, i'm not great at keeping things in suspense. I have a hard time enjoying any surprise but Matthew is the opposite. I wanted to make it special and coordinated a fun little evening for him that involved good food, good people, and games.
This month the pace has picked up a bit. I started classes this week. Along with becoming a graduate student, I am also co-teaching a class at NSU. It's been new and different but I am enjoying every minute of it. We survived another year of RA training and check-in's and are looking forward to getting into a more established routine. Matt just submitted his application to NSU and we've got our fingers crossed that he can start in Winter term.
We have a trip planned to Disneyworld over Labor Day weekend with our friends Rob and Sheree and we hope to post some pics of beautiful Florida with that.

Still going strong!
Today is August first. Four years ago Matthew and I were married in the temple in Nauvoo, Il. I just wanted to blog about how wonderful these last four years have been. We have had huge obstacles to work our way through (immigration, lack of money, job changes, moves across the country...) but we have had some wonderful highlights! I felt like sharing some of my favorite moments of marriage (PG rated) and highlighting some of our favorite people who made these memories with us.
August 2006 - Married in the Nauvoo temple. This day was so wonderful and we were so happy to have Matt's family and my mentor and friend Jill supporting us through that.
July 2007 - Playing in Logan with my niece and nephew. We explored the town and canyon while our niece and nephew stayed with us for a few days.
October 2007 - Our trip to Las Vegas where we celebrated my 21st birthday
December 2007 - Christmas in Indiana. Visiting with Matt's family, Euchre at Grandma and Grandpa's and date night with the Peyton's
June 2008 - A trip to Chicago with the Peyton's. Good food, great company, and Wrigley Field!
December 2008 - My cousins from Venezuela came and hung out with us
May 2009 - Matthew's graduation.
August 2009 - Camping and Boating at Bear Lake with the Fisher's and the Eldridge's. So fun!
September 2009 - Florida trip... what started it all
December 2009 - Christmas in Utah - both my family and Matthew's gathered together to celebrate in one location.
March 2010 - Disneyland with the Cook's and Allen's. What a magical moment
