Graduation

Rich and I after BYU's commencement


Rich being a graduated stud-muffin. Hahaha!


Rich graduated! I am so proud of him. I never could have finished a bachelors in biology from BYU. His classes were way hard. He is still working towards dental school and is applying in June. He is on Creighton's Dental School waiting list, and a couple other schools too. Rich got sick on the night before he walked though. I felt so bad for him. I woke up at like 3am and heard him throwing up. He did walk, but he went back to bed and was sick for about a week. At least he was able to walk though! Yay for my graduated hus-band!

4-H Mentoring

Rich and I have been mentors for 4-H since October. We love it. I meet with Alicia, and Rich meets with Dylan. Dylan and Alicia are siblings. I love 4-H. I was involved in 4-H when I was younger (horse shows, drawing, etc) and I think it is a great program, so it has been fun to get involved again. They have awesome activities. A few weeks ago, we went up to SLC with a big 4-H group and saw James and the Giant Peach. It was super fun. I love meeting with Alicia. She is so artistic, so I am learning a lot from her. K well that is all. Bye!

Jazzy Clothes

Rich is so cute. He hates shopping, but he will go with me because he loves me and because he knows that he is my favorite shopping buddy. Usually Rich has no strong preference when I ask for his opinion. His only "strong" remark is "Hmm... I don't know. I don't really like it that much." or "Ya I like it." Normally he just finds a seat and plays on his phone while I shop. BUT today, he came and found me and he was carrying a Utah Jazz shirt. "You need to get this shirt-It's awesome," he said. It was more than I would've spent for a sportsy-shirt, but he carried it with him as I continued to shop. I found some cute jeans that I really wanted, so I said, "well, maybe I just won't get the Jazz shirt". I didn't think Rich would persist on it because he doesn't care about clothes. He obviously cared about that Jazz shirt because I found him later, and he had bought the shirt for me. It was really funny. We ended up getting him one too, and I got my jeans. Boys are funny. I love that he got involved in the shopping--even if it revolved around the jazz shirts.

Finally!

Rich and I finally got to go snowboarding/skiing together! I was soooo happy. We have been pretty broke and busy because of school and having a job that should pay more, but we finally made it to Sundance. It was nothing compared to Snowbird, but it was a lot cheaper. However, it was way better than Buck Hill. Haha. It was so much fun. I love being up in the mountains. It is so gorgeous up there. Rich kept hitting the moguls which was a definite NO for snowboarders, but it was fun watching him speed down them like a crazy kid. Always wear helmets. :) I am still working on my 360. I loved snowboarding and am so happy we finally got to go. If we are near mountains next winter, we are getting season passes for sure. Bye!

AwesomE

YAY!!! Rich and I finally got to go see Mickey in Idaho. This is his final season playing hockey, so we went to see him play. There were two awesome things that happened. The first thing was that everyone prayed before the game started. I loved that. It was so cool to see these big hockey players all praying together. The second awesome thing was that Mike got put in the penalty box. That was pretty funny and awesome. K well I hope you enjoy the picture. It was so cool to be there and watch Mike play. He is the coolest brother. I love him. He's probably not ever going to read this, so I'll just say that I am so lucky to have him as an older brother. He is an awesome person.

SiSterS

I love my sisters. We are all so different from each other, but I love that about us. I love how Amy is the amazing chef, and I am the sports one, and Laura is the amazing clogger, and Ashley is the amazing pianist, and Michelle is the amazing singer, and Kristy is the amazing entertainer and the baby of the family. We are all different, but then so similiar. It's crazy. I love going home because we know what we are thinking without even saying a word, and we all love talking about the same things, or we at least enjoy hearing each other talk about things, so it is great! I think it is because we are all random versions of my mommy. I love her too.
