That's Right... We're Moving... Cause Justen got Accepted!

We couldn't be more happier right now! We found out 11 days ago that Justen got accepted into Midwestern University in Glendale, AZ! We've been waiting and waiting to hear the good news and it finally came! Hip Hip Hooray! Orientation starts August 4th so we will move down on the 29th of July. We are definitely sad to be leaving Utah and all our wonderful friends, however we are extremely excited for the new journey!

This weekend we went to Manti for the Pageant. We left early so we could get a good spot on the grass. We went with Justin and Susan and had a great time! It was a bit chilly, but we survived to see a wonderful performance!

Strawberry Days

Pleasant Grove Strawberry Days was last week! We enjoyed lots of fun entertainment. We watched as they set up the Carnival on Wednesday and planned to hit it up on Saturday. Saturday rolled around we headed to the parade. The threatening clouds above didn't damper the spirit and we had a great time! That night we went down to the Carnival only to get rained out. We were kind bummed we didn't get to ride the rides, but the funnel cakes made up for it!



One of the cars exploded right next to us. Kinda scary for the people.

Most unique float by far!

Anniversary Weekend!


Yesterday was our 1 year Anniversary! Time sure does fly by fast! The past 12 months have been wonderful and I know we have great years ahead. Our weekend together was wonderful! On Friday night the school I will be working for in September (gasp... I know lots of you don't know I got a job because I haven't told many people... but I'll be teaching 3rd grade at American Legacy Academy in AF.) So the school was holding a fundraiser, 2nd Chance Prom. This was just an opportunity for adults to have a Prom. So Justen and I got all dressed up and went to Olive Garden and the dance. There was a live band and D.J. We danced till we couldn't dance anymore! It was a blast and I loved I was able to go with my true sweetheart!

On Saturday Justen and I went for a hike to the G, even tho we never actually got to the G, maybe someday we will. Then we headed to Outback Steakhouse. The food was delicious, and we even had a server named Dracula. We never could figure out if he was joking or if that was his real name! We hit up Coney's for some ice cream and just enjoyed our evening.

On Sunday, our actual anniversary, we went to Church and just hung out. We went to a trek fireside. We are going as GRANDPARENTS on our stake trek outing! GASP... we're already grandparents - sure skipped a few steps. And then played the Wii at our friends house.

So all in all our weekend was great! I love Justen so much and I'm so glad I married him! Life just makes sense with each other and we're happy as can bee!
