First Day of School!

This is all I could think of the past couple days as I walked through UVU halls on the first day of fall semester. We have had a crazy couple of days since school started up and we don't see eachother much but I am excited to continue school and I have some AWESOME classes.

PHYSIOLOGY- we have a love hate relationship already. The cool thing about being a Junior and getting ready to apply for nursing is I am taking classes that really excite me and really matter to me. This is one of those. Everything the professor talks about gets my blood pumping and its exciting to know I am definately in the right field. The hate part of the relationship is how hard it is already! The concepts blow my mind and the reading is LONG! My professors exact words "I picked your text book because it is hard, No patient wants to come into a hospital to be treated by someone who was taught the easy way, with the easy text book." Fair enough right?

PSYCHOLOGY- I get to take the fun psych this semester, the one where we learn about development of humans from birth to death, again SO interesting to me and my teacher seems really relaxed. The fact she will be easy is so nice for my workload burden especially with the hours I will have to put in for physio.

ENGLISH-Easy peezy lemon squeezy. I just have to write. I only have 2 more english classes this one and next semester... can't wait to be done. Good thing I don't want to be an englsh major.

TENNIS AND POWERTONE- these are my brain saver classes. They help me stay active and aware while I am studying. I only can take so much work with the classes listed above but I have to be full time so I got to add two fun 1 credit classes and help me beat Josh in our semiannual tennis games! You are looking at the next maria sharipova!

WE GET TO MOVE IN THIS WEEKEND!!! we can't wait! and we get to go to the piano guys concert on saturday...expect a post on that and hopefully fun pictures!

I know you wanted to hear all about my classes...NOT! so here is something that really meant alot to me that kinda jumped into my life last night right when I needed it. Its an amzaing message and I hope you have the time to watch or listen or read it sometime. TRUST ME its worth it!

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!!

I CAN'T BELIEVE Change....
This past week we have been in the process of moving, it is crazy we are going to move on to the next little adventure of our married life. We are moving to the luxurious, glamourous wymount:) Also been called the breeding grounds and my personal favorite...the rabbit pens. We are inbetween moving out of king henry and into wymount so we will be at Grandma Lynns. We love our grandma and are so lucky to have a place to go, but we will be so glad to be back in our own space!

I CAN'T BELIEVE Us......
I don't think Josh or I have ever experienced such a blonde moment. In the process of moving our shower decided to be clogged. Josh tried to fix it but, no luck. I regret to share this, but we avoided the shower due to the gross water remaining in the tub after being stagnant for a couple days. I finally called maintenance and they never came, so I gave in I HAD to get in the shower I had just worked out and couldn't NOT shower. I got in stood on the edges of the tub so my feet weren't in the nasty water and continued to shower feeling like a goofball. Once I got out the tub was more full than before. We continued to get ready for bed and all of a sudden Josh walks over to the tub and flips the plug switch down. WE HAD CLOGGED OUR OWN SHOWER!!! The water level slowly but surely decreased as we cracked up at the thought we were avoiding our own shower because the plug was on. I don't know if it gets more Blonde than that!

I CAN'T BELIEVE THE Blessings...
Josh and I are starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel when it comes to school. We have a sort of rough draft map out until we are done. I apply for nursing school in May and Josh delclared His major of Economics and is hoping to be done in just a couple of semesters also. In the midst of this excitement we recieved another incredible, and might I say generous blessing! After applying for financial aid, we discovered today the rest of my schooling before I apply for nursing school is paid for! (as far as nursing school....we will apply again when we get there) I could not be more blessed and relieved.

I CAN'T BELIEVE THE sharks.....
We have been watching too much shark week...enough said.....

I CAN'T BELIEVE THE Countdown
Our family has recently planned an AMAZING trip to Destin Florida to celebrate My Grandma and Grandpa Lynns 50th anniversary! The location and beach are just STUNNING!!!

1 year.....3 months....lets reminisce!

Just about 1 year ago I went on my last first date and luckily for me it was THE greatest first date. We have also hit 3 months of married life......Where has the time gone it feels like yesterday we were walking out of the temple doors and a BRANDNEW-ly married couple. I can still remember that moment like it was yesterday, although the day couldn't have flown by faster. Everything has been simply perfect the first three months and we have had so much fun during the summer. I am starting to prepare my self for the fall and basketball season...it will still be fun, but a lot less time together...ALOT!

Just a little recap of our past week before the reminiscing starts:)

The olympics.....what can I say more! We love it! We try to catch every little bit we can between work and basketball. The Mr. Bean part in the opening ceremonies even had Josh craving the movie so we had to go buy it. GO USA!

Happy Big 50! Josh's Dad turned the big 50 and we got to celebrate! We are so grateful for him and we couldn't be luckier to have him as a dad and father-in-law. He is an amazing bishop for his ward and such a jokester! I love watching him around his family and I am so grateful for his example and wisdom. We love you so much Joe!

Too funny!

We have this strange goal to develop the LARGEST movie collection (over time of course). We had a great start but, just for fun we raided the Walmart 5$ movie bins to enhance the collection.

Just a while back we went to go look at some extra furniture at Josh's Grandpa Gary's Draper house for our new apartment and went on a spontaneous adventure, we ended up in Sandy at chilis because of these demons...

I love them but I can't help hating the calories. Right after we decided to randomly go see Batman at the Jordan commons theater. Don't ask my review of the movie, I left in tears just feeling so bad about the victims in Colorado, it broke my heart. But, just ask Josh.....HE LOVED IT!

I am not one for bragging but, in this case....I just can't help it, my AMAZING husband spoils me! I was complaining about my running shoes (complaining might be an understatement) they were so broken down and making my toes fall asleep and we went and got new ones! I love them! Also on our third month anniversary he got me flowers and some new clothes!

My NEW shoes!!!

We also have this new thing for cooking and trying new recipes or just new easy meals these are a couple firsts and favorites we have had lately!

I should have taken a pic when this still looked pretty but its buffalo chicken salad and it is MY FAVORITE!!!

a Parmesan chicken bake with rosemary Potatoes

French dip sandwiches with a caesar salad YUM!

AND NOW FOR THE BIG REMINISCE....

Like I said 1 year ago I went on my first date with my (at the time) future husband, even though neither of us would have even guessed it! We went to a REAL soccer game with friends and we had a blast! I really remember thinking that it was the funnest date I had been on. We went to JCWs and shared a cookie-dough milkshake and fries. I remember feeling like good friends already after our first date and of course the worry came once he dropped me of......"is he ever going to call me again", "did he have fun", "was I too forward?", "did I not do enough".....It's really funny to think back to the single dating life and all the games and worries you have.

Unfortunately, I don't have pictures from our first date, but I do have some from when we went back to a game on our honeymoon...so that will be reminisce part two....Enjoy!

not the greatest picture but we are in park city drinking yoohoo out of wine glasses

Right back where we started:)

We loved walking up and down main street especially at night when it is all lit up and we found this little.....i mean big guy

On our way to church in park city... we never  did find that church building

I don't know if we will ever catch josh being serious for a pic! we were given this free dessert when we went to ruby river to celebrate our honeymoon!

Speaking of freebies....josh may or may not have got pulled over and may or may not have been  just given a warning because of all the Just Married paint.....It saved us!
