Finally Pics from Jamie's Wedding

Sisters

Weekend Project

We are moving to East Millcreek in South Salt Lake in August to be closer to Keith's work. His office might be moving from Park City to the Brickyard Plaza, which is right across the street from the condo we found. We are very excited! It is new and nice. So before we move all our furniture up three stories we thought we would update my parents dinning room set they let us have when we got married. It was a really light pine and so we decided to stain it a dark red mahogany color. We spent all Friday evening and all day Saturday sanding and staining. It was a lot more work than we thought, but we finished and we think it turned out pretty good! Our basement lighting doesn't do it justice.

update

Some quick updates:
-For memorial weekend we went to Idaho to visit Keith's family and I had a fun time on a horse pretending to help move a bunch of scary looking bulls. We had to move them again later on a four wheeler that kept getting stuck in the mud and i think my panicking even made Keith nervous. I just couldn't believe we didn't get charged! Also Keith told me they were trying to charge us cause our four wheeler was red and i totally believed him until he laughed at me freaking out. The ranch is always a fun adventure. We went to the fun historic townsite for their yearly celebration and toured neat little pioneer homes and it is right along the oregon trail! It was really nice weather most of the time too, so we set up a fun badminton (i never knew that's how you spelled it till i just looked it up) net and had a really fun time playing that! Our last night we enjoyed a backyard fire in the neat pit and made smores!
-I'll be done with spring semester next week and then we are heading down to San Diego for my sister Jamie's wedding before summer semester starts. It will be a quick trip, but i can hardly wait! It feels like forever since i've been home.
-I'm trying to find a part time dental hygiene job for one day a week this summer while i finish school and Keith is still loving working at Summit Energy in Park City.
-I've been a couple times to seven peaks so far, but we are impatiently waiting for the good weather so Keith and i can actually go together a whole day to enjoy it!
-sorry i don't have much to share, hopefully keith will do something funny soon so i can report it! haha

Here are some fun pics of us on our horses:





Since every time i ride a horse keith has to pull the stirrups all the way up so i can sort of reach I told him to buy me a pony so i don't have to bounce around so much. I bet everyone would enjoy seeing me try to ride a horse! :)

I passed! I'm an official Dental Hygienist!

Yesterday I received my results for the dental hygiene clinical board exam, the last results I've been waiting for, And I passed! So Now I can apply for my license and start looking for work! I can't believe how fast the boards came and went. I was so nervous I wouldn't pass. But now I have three success cards for the three crazy board exams: written boards, anesthesia boards, and clinical board! Hopefully we stay in Utah for awhile so i never have to take another state's boards. (I can't believe i'm saying that.)
Now bring on summer I've got my seven peaks season pass and looking forward to warm fun! (By the way anyone staying in the area for summer get a season pass too and come with me.)

I finished Dental Hygiene

Last Thursday I had my last dental hygiene clinical board exam and then Friday was UVU's graduation. Unfortunately I am going to BYU for spring/summer term to also finish my Bachelor's in exercise science, which started on Wednesday, so I had to miss the second day of school for graduation. Excitement of graduation was short-lived, but it was fun to have my parents and keith's parents come celebrate with us. We ate steak at Ruby River! It was so good! And I put a cute picture of the whole dental hygiene group. They are the best girls! I will miss them. When i'm done with school this summer I think it will be a huge adjustment. I can't imagine my life with school all finished! It's so exciting! I'll have to fill my time cleaning teeth. :) Since Keith's job is in Park City we might move closer to the area or at least Salt Lake at the end of the summer. Keith started work this week and based on the facts:
-He can wear whatever he wants to work (jeans and boots)
-He can text, call, or instant message me whenever he wants
-They gave him a laptop and he gets to analyze natural gas prices (one of his favorite topics)
-The main owner supplies their office kitchen with costco foods every month (now that Keith's there they will be stocking it a lot more frequently)
-His second day the owners bought everyone cafe rio for lunch and made him a smoothie in their sweet kitchen
-The office room is filled with big screen tvs on every wall
I think he is very happy with his new job!
And good news for me the outlet mall is right next to his office. Life is getting good!

The light at the end of the tunnel!

Keith graduated from BYU with a bachelor in finance and a real estate emphasis from the Marriot School of Business on Thursday April 24th! He is so happy to finally be finished with school and luckily he has a job lined up with Summit Energy, a small private natural gas company in Park City, as an analyst. His parents are so proud of him. I'm so proud of him too! He is such a hard worker. We are excited for a fun new future!

The Best and the Worst!

So since I don't really have much of anything to talk about and all we have going on right now is school stress. I thought I'd share what's been getting Keith and I through this month. Costco's Chocolate enrobed Caramel Macadamia Clusters!
I could only find a picture of this brand.




They are amazing and we choose to ignore why they can be the worst! It's still winter, we're young, can't we eat what we want?!!
