A Few Summer Updates!

It's been a busy summer for us, so I feel like I need to give a few updates before I start with current posts, here goes...


This April we attended my graduation ceremony at BYU. I actually graduated from the nursing program in December, but it was fun to come back and kind of put closure on my BYU experience
In May we took a trip to the Washington D.C. area to go to our friends Matt and Kim's wedding. We had a blast!


One of our favorite things that we did while we were there was visiting the Civil War battle site, Antietam. Jeremy was in his element there. I think our move to Pennsylvania in a few days is all a strategic move on his part to be in the right place to be a civil war reenactor after retirement



In June we took a trip to McCall, Idaho and stayed in a cabin with my family. Jeremy, Nic, my dad and I went on a river trip on the Canyon Run of the payette river. It was pretty intense. The right side of our boat ended up getting launched into the river. Check out Jeremy's facial expression in the first picture. In the second picture, you can actually see my dad in mid flight...priceless.


On August 8th our little nephew Luke arrived. He is adorable. We are sad that we are moving away and won't have more time with him!
In August, we took a trip with Jeremy's family to Yellowstone National Park. It was just gorgeous. We were actually at old faithful the same time as President Obama. He was on our list of "wildlife" to see, but unfortunately, we didn't get to cross him off our list

We really liked all of the educational pictures posted around the park. This one was our favorite. We learned not to stand on top of old faithful.

Although we didn't get to cross President Obama off our list, we did get to see a grizzly bear!

Jeremy graduated from the construction management program at BYU a few weeks ago. He has accepted a postition with Sustainable Solutions corporation in Pennsylvania. We will be making the long drive to in just a couple of days. We're both a little bit sad to be leaving Provo, but we're excited for our new adventure together. Our next post will be from Pennsylvania!

  3. Did you really injury a harmless tree just so you could post a clever picture on your blog? Heartless. I thought you were green.

    Oh, this is Dave again.
