Week 17

Sandy!

It's official...we moved to Sandy, Utah! (well only for three months!) But I'm so excited to be in Utah for a few months!  Sheldon is amazing and got an internship this winter with an accounting firm in Salt Lake City.  It's weird to think that a year ago we were in California doing the same thing...and I was freaking out! This time seems much easier.  We have a cute little apartment that we love...it's amazing the difference you feel after living in an apartment that is 30 years old...had cottage cheese ceilings...dark brown framing...and lights and fans that came from the 60's to something that is only 5 years old!

We love it here! I also Love it because Super Walmart is literally 100 steps away! At first I was skeptical, I though it would be noisy all the time....and annoying to have all the traffic....but really ITS AMAZING!  If we want to get a red box...it takes 2 minutes....if I'm missing a key ingredient...it takes 2 minutes! I don't have to get into the car and drive around the corner...I just walk through the fence and the front entrance is right there!   I know it sounds weird...I really do hate Walmart...but they are so convenient...and after being deprived for so long with the so called Walmart in Rexburg....this one is AMAZING!

Okay enough about Walmart....Anyways Sheldon isn't too crazy busy with work yet so we've been able to do a lot of fun things like....

Go to a Jazz game! It was a really fun date night and Sheldon was able to find seats for $15!!

Sheldon's favorite part of the game is going an hour early so he can watch everyone warm up!  I won't admit to it...but it is pretty fun!

This is the view from our seats...yup...4th row from the very very very top!...but really they weren't bad and the people we sat around were really fun.  So the Jazz game was a success and I think we will go again!

We also went to....

Brian Regan!! The worlds funnies comedian!! He is my all time favorite and Sheldon surprised me with tickets for Christmas! We ended up having amazing seats...and we didn't stop laughing for 2 hours! By the end my voice hurt, my face hurt and my head hurt...but it was well worth it! Listening to Brian Regan is funny...but watching him in person is hilarious!

So it's been an amazing adventure for us so far... and we are loving it!

Oh and one more thing....

We are 13 weeks pregnant!!! Second Trimester here we come!!

Remember....

This is for me so I can remember....http://myeternalfamily100.weebly.com/index.html  I love that teachers have you create blogs, I think it's a great way to remember what I've learned!  So this blog was for my family 100 class, and I'm now using it for my Old Testament class!

Wow....

So a quick sum of the 7 week break...and fall semester! The seven week break was amazing, we did a lot of playing!  We got to go camping, spend a week in St. George for our anniversary, play at bear lake with my family, spend a week in Arizona with our good friends Ty & Liz, relax and do a whole lot of nothing!! Sheldon studied hard and took the dreaded GMAT test (like the ACT but on steroids!) He did well but he wants to take it again in December...So he will continue to study!  It was a much needed break and we enjoyed every minute of it!

This semester has been SO busy...and we are so close to graduating, I think we both have senioritis really bad!! We both have full school schedules and we are both working...which is a huge blessing...and keeps us busy.  Sheldon is an accounting tutor up on campus, and a school bus driver and I'm a bus aid!  It is fun and I enjoy riding with the kids!

Some exciting news....Sheldon got an internship in Salt Lake City with Deloitte, one of the big four accounting companies.  He is the first BYU-I student to ever come and do an internship with them before having a masters degree...so this is a huge blessing and we are so excited to be in Utah during winter semester!  So we just found a cute little apartment in Sandy, Utah...where we will live until April!  After the internship we will head back up to Rexburg for the Spring semester so we can both finish our bachelors degrees!! 

Here are a few pictures from our trip to St. George! One of the days we spent  in Zions National Park, this is the hike Angles-landing!  It was beautiful!

We Survived!

       Spring semester is OVER....and we are so relieved!  I almost didn't think I would make it, but we did it.  We both managed to pull of 4.0's (which isn't hard for Sheldon...but I'm quite proud of my work!)  We both decided that we love Rexburg right now, the town is empty because all the students have left, its warm and sunny, and there isn't any SNOW!  Summers in Rexburg really are nice.

This is a park in Rexburg

     Now that school is out I'm as free as a bird! Sheldon is going to study over the 7 week break for the GMAT test (this score will get him into a Masters program...so we hope he does really well!)  It's so weird to wake up and I don't  have to worry about getting to class, or what homework I need to get done...There is nothing demanding my time!...so I'm trying to think of creative things to do so I don't go crazy!

    We love summer time!! I'm looking forward to going to Utah to hang out with the family, we are going on a  little vacation to St. George for a few days, we need to go camping and roast marshmallows....so many things I hope we can fit into 7 weeks!
