Much needed update! :)

Holy freak life has been so busy!! But I thought I'd catch all of you up on the amazing adventures I have had!! First of all...my amazing boyfriend, Travis took me to California for a weekend to visit his sister and her kids. It was SOOO much fun! Travis's brother-in-law works as an accountant for Disneyland so we got into Disneyland AND California Adventures for FREE!!!! It was soo much fun to spend time with Travis's sister and her adorable kids! And of course...we had a day at the beach too. :)Then the weekend after we got back from California Travis took me to the Jimmy Wayne/Dierks Bentley/Brad Paisley concert. He got me the tickets for my birthday clear back in July but we finally got to go!! Our seats were SO close so it was a lot of fun! They were so entertaining and we were laughing the entire time!! So worth going to!!!
We had some pretty good times. Now we are both back to reality with work and Trav at school. He is graduating this April with an Economics major and then heading to Medical School next Fall. He is doing all his interviews for medical school right now so it's been a little stressful. He interviewed at University of Utah but won't find out if he is accepted until MARCH! Pretty lame. But in the meantime he has more interviews with Texas and Iowa so far. I'm pulling for the U...but we will see what happens! Pretty much he is the best thing that has ever happened to me so I will follow him wherever he goes! :) Well love you all and hope you enjoyed the update!

Swing Dancing! :)

For those of you that don't know...I'm a bit obsessed with Country Dancing. I go every week in Provo and I LOVE it!! Sometimes it gets a little intense. For instance, last week I was doing a lift where I stand right in front of the guy and he gives me a boost and I do a back flip over his head. We did fine the first two times...but the third time ended badly and I ended up with two broken fingers on my right hand and a hurt ankle. SO worth it!!! It was just hard to not go dancing for a week! But I toughed it out and went anyways last night. I usually like dancing with the instructor, Ed. He coached gymnastics for a few years so I trust him lifting me. Here is a video of us just messing around with some lifts. As you can tell...it's still a work in progress :)

This next video is of me and some guy Ed made me do some lifts with. I'm not sure what his name is...but he is good!

How life is going...



I haven't posted in a while (thanks to Charity for giving me a hard time on it) so I figured I'd catch you all up. I moved back to South Jordan last week and got my old job back at Legacy..I love it! And this week..if all goes well with testing..I will officially be an EMT..I can't wait!!!! But through all the stress and hecticness I did manage to find time for people I absolutely love so here are some recent pictures...minus Brad and Jenny since they decided they were to good for us over Thanksgiving ;)
Since it is the season of saying thanks...I want to say thank you to a few people. First I want to say thank you to my parents...they are always so willing to help everyone and they accepted me back with open arms. They continue to give all the time and they have taught me SO much. Also to my brothers and sister (in-laws included), they each have their own strengths and I love watching them and learning from them. You all mean the world to me! Thanks again to you all...you are what made me who I am today!
