Our family is GROWING!!

We are excited to announce that our family will be getting larger! I found out in November I was pregnant. And just today we found out that we are having a baby girl. We are so excited we can't stand it. We are so grateful that Heavenly Father has trusted us with this responsibility. I can't wait to hold and snuggle with our little one. My due date is July 6th. I have to admit I am a little nervous, but mostly excited. Greg is so cute he has been doing his homework, checking all review websites for anything from our car seat to the crib making sure that they are the best and safest possible! We will keep posting as our adventure continues.

Changes...

This month has been one full of changes, but I'm very pleased to say they have been good ones! First, I graduated from Provo College with my Associates Degree in Medical Assisting. At first I was very hesitant to go into the program, but I am so glad that I did it. I love the field and think it is the perfect fit for me. Second, I got a job in Medical Assisting! I am currently working in the Central Utah Dermatology Clinic. I LOVE my job. I have enjoyed every minute of it and it's only been a month. I am amazed at how much I'm learning. We see a lot of people with skin cancer, so wear sunscreen people! I also get to work with teens who are suffering from acne and get to see their face when their confidence is restored. I think best thing by far is the people I get to work with, they are incredible. I look forward to going to work everyday. So yes a lot of changes but they have been amazing.

Greg surprised me on Valentine's Day by sending flowers to the clinic.

Thanksgiving 2010

Thanksgiving is always a great time of year. This year we went down to Cedar City to visit Greg's Grandma Cecile. I love going down there to visit, even though it's only a few hours away it just far enough away to feel like a vacation. This year we brought my sister Ashley with us to enjoy the fun. As always there was great food and a lot of laughs. I love that I married into a great family that I feel at home with when I can't go to Kansas. While down in Cedar City Greg's cousin Jenny taught us how to make these really cute hair bows that are so easy to make.

This Thanksgiving I also experienced Wal-Mart on Black Friday. Even though they only thing I got was towels it was hilarious. The highlight of the Wal-mart was the guy wearing a camouflage jacket, missing half his teeth that for some reason needed almost thirty Crockpots. I don't know how much I would trust a $3.00 Crockpot but hey it was a steal. So I ended up with towels, Ashley got a George Foreman Grill, and Jim got some heating blankets, and a lot of games. I would say we did really well!

As per tradition I had the opportunity to help put up Grandma Cecile's Christmas trees. I think I could put up hundreds of Christmas trees, I love them. Well I hope you guys had a great Thanksgiving as well. We sure do have a lot to be thankful for!

Externship!

I interviewed today at the IHC Provo Intsacare and was approved for my externship. I am so excited to be able to work with their team of great employees. Best of all I will be able to use all of my skills and gain a lot of experience.

We're Famous!

Well at least our apartment is. This afternoon when I came home from school their were a bunch of cameras and makeup chairs lining our apartment. A production company is filming a movie and chose our apartment as the location for a few of the scenes. When we asked what film they were shooting or what company they are from, they didn't really give us a good answer. All we know is that it is an independent film about teenagers. It is now 9:30pm and they are still filming. Maybe we will end up seeing our apartment on the big screen one day. Feel free to ask for autographs!

Two Years

On August 8th, Greg and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary! We celebrated with a relaxing weekend in St. George. I had actually never been to St. George so it was definitely a nice change of scenery. I love the deep rich colors of the rocks and the shopping is not too bad either. We also took time to go and see the temple while we were down there, and I must say I think it is now one of my favorites!

We also did our fair share of swimming while down there. All the kids in our hotel's pool had cool goggles so of course we had to get some, and I must say they definitely make swimming more fun. And of course we had to show up the kids in the pool!

When we got home Greg surprised me with a framed picture of our temple. I must say he has really good taste.

Two years and we are still going strong! I love you Greg!

Going, Going...Almost Gone

That's right we are leaving for the weekend to celebrate our anniversary! I'm so ready to go and bask in the nice St. George sun. Homework is done and swimming suit is packed.
