Relaxing Weekend

Well, life's still pretty good. We are just up at Ryan's parent's house watching the Olympics. We also went to Luke's baby blessing today, which was so fun to see everyone at. He is such a cute baby.

We don't have too much homework this weekend too, which has been nice. But I am starting to study for another test :( I think I've had 1-2 every week for the whole month of February...oh well, it's almost over.

We found out that Ryan doesn't have Bppv, and that he does have perfect hearing! Go Ryan! So the doctor said that his dizziness isn't related to his ears at all...but now that means an MRI and possibly some more test. Hopefully we'll find out what it is soon!

That's all for now!

It's been a long while

Well, now we're in a new semester :) It's been a lot of fun. We went to Washington for Thanksgiving and stayed in Utah for Christmas. Jonny and Andrew came up last weekend, which was way fun :) We did get two new cars since I last wrote I think. Totally not planned, but we were having serious problems with each one...just a few months apart. so we decided it was best to sell and get new ones...good times. But we really like our new ones - well they are used, but new for us :)

We think Ryan has Bppv - which is a kind of virdigo. But we won't know for sure till Friday. He's been dizzy off and on since October! Yeiks. We're excited to find out if that's what it is...and to fix the dizziness.

He just started his LSAT class today too :)

I will be taking classes for both spring and summer terms now. I was only going to go for spring, but I got half tuition for both semesters...and you can't defer...so I'm taking a sewing class! I'm excited :)

First week of school

Hum, well it's back to school time. Ry's taking 12 credits and I'm taking 15. Ry's taking the hard classes though. I have 3 freshman level classes...cause I just switched my major. I'm emphasizing in Interior Design. I'm really excited for it!! Ry is majoring in Economics with a Business minor and then off to law school. I'm half hoping that he'll get into the U of U school of law so that I can go to the LDS Business College and really major in interior design! But BYU is cheaper...and I have an in there :)

Mostly we're just doing homework. We don't have a ton yet, but I'm sure it will pick up. We're excited for this holiday weekend.

We went to visit my dad's family in Minnesota last weekend. So much fun! It was good to see everyone again. And my parents were there too. Always good to see them. I realize it's been four years since I was in Minnesota! Mary Kate & Rachel have grown up so much! We went to the Mall of America and to the state fair and ate some yummy food there. :)

Boating & The Screwtape Letters

This week, lets see...mostly just worked. On Friday we went to the temple. I always love going to learn and to just feel peace. Saturday we went boating - the water was 80 degrees! It was great! Ryan did a lot of wake surfing. I mostly watched 'cause I worked out with my trainer on Friday morning and had a hard time bending my legs. haha, gotta love a good workout. I realized that although my muscles are getting stronger, I really need to do more cardio! Saturday, we also started cleaning out our storage unit and took a lot of stuff to the DI. We were going to go to a movie that night at the dollar theater, but Ryan ended up getting sick, so we didn't go.

I just started reading The Screwtape Letters - great book! I would recommend it to anyone. Shelley says The Great Divorce is even better. I'll have to read that one soon too. I really like The Screwtape letters 'cause it really makes you realize what lame excuses we make to ourselves to put off doing what we know we need to do.

Wyoming Weekend

Let's see we went up early friday morning. Coleman and Missy drove up with us. It was fun. Kathy and Ryan's grandma & grandpa were already there, and their 2 dogs, kizzy & cuddles. It was fun to be with dogs again...well for me at least. Ryan wasn't so excited. Coleman ended up getting really stuffed up 'casue he is apparantly pretty allergic to dogs.
We went golfing on friday. Missy & I mostly watched 'casue you can only have 4 people golf at a time. It was fun though. We also went golfing on Saturday and I learned a lot about golfing and what clubs you use. And I got to drive the golf cart! That was fun. I also lost my phone at one point 'casue it fell off the seat, but Missy & I found it.
We went to Jackson Hole while we were there too and I found a winter jacket for $20! It was originally 149! I am excited to wear it. Ryan said it was cute, i didn't even see it 'till I got home, but he was right :)
Kathy's friends came up on Saturday which was fun. They had a 2 year old name Chandler. He was really cute. Cuddles was a little worried at first 'casue I don't think she'd seen a little kid before. But she warmed up pretty fast.
The first night we slept down stairs, it was really dark, I couldn't even see my hand. The next night we slept on our blow up mattress (thanks mom & dad!) on the main floor. We left the door open with the screen closed. At midnight we woke up because we heard a squeeking sound...I was kind of scared. I'm glad ryan was there :) It took us a while to figure out what it was, I thought it was an animal on the porch. It turned out to be the screen door becasue it was windy out. So we shut the door...but it took me a while to get back to sleep.
We got back late on Sunday and have just been working. I went to get my named changed at the Social Security office today...it only took an hour which is actually pretty good.
Today I'm feeling a little sick. Hoping to feel better tomorrow.
Ryan's still working and loving his job. He took his car in today 'casue the breaks were going out. But it's good to get it taken care of. Well, that's all for now.

Movies and stuff

Hum...let's see. So this weekend we are thinking of going golfing. It should be lots of fun! We're heading out tomorrow morning...pretty early I think. I'm hoping I can sleep in the car :)

Today got to go to the temple and we washed our car. Now we're just hanging out at his parent's house.

Last week we saw Harry Potter - it was good - really funny, but definitely different from the book. We ended up reading the book right before we saw the movie. I knew the movie would be pretty different, but I forgot to tell Ryan - so he didn't really like the movie. There was one scene that was way out there - totally didn't go with the plot...oh well.

Hey, apparently them are making a 3rd Transformers!! But it wont come out until July 2011.

We also started some food storage yesterday - we got a bunch of 3 liters of water - for only .49 cents each.

Life Since the Honeymoon

Well life is good :) We've been busy. I worked 9-5 for a few weeks because our other secretary was out of town. It was nice to get the hours...but I also really like sleeping in so I'm glad to be back to my usual schedule...plus it gives me time to get our Thanks-you's out and change my name..haha.
This past weekend we went up to Bear Lake with Ryan's family and some friends from Lake Powell. It was a lot of fun :) I discovered that maybe I do like the water...but I got a little sunburned. We found some really good water to go wake boarding on, but Ryan was kind of sad because he couldn't wake board 'cause he bruised his heel. But he did get to wake surf. Hey! I even got up while wake boarding...I wasn't quite so successful at wake surfing.
Lets see - Ryan started a new job today, as computer support for the Church. It's a call center, but he really likes computers, so we're excited :)
This weekend we're going to visit Ryan's uncle's cabin, in Star Valley with his family. That should be fun. We're excited...plus it's a 3 day weekend! Good old Pioneer Day.
