Where has the time gone?

So, where to start? Life has been quite frantic these last couple of months. First things first, we went on spring break to st. george and had a really great time! My parents met us there at the end of the weekend, and we spent a whole day in Vegas with Becca, Kelcey, and our sweet little Gabby!

Coming home was not a pleasant time, considering school was kicking our butts, but....mike surprised me with a little something. A PUPPY!!!! She's freaking adorable...but.....she's a LOT of work! wow! I never thought potty training, feeding, grooming, playing, and keeping her out of every nook and cranny would be SO exhausting! But it is all worth it, especially when she gives you those "big puppies dog eye" looks, and completely melts your heart. It sucks, she gets away with just about everything.

Next big event...are you ready? Drum roll please...................I got into the Interior Design Studio at Utah State! I was very shocked, but at the same time so excited! I had never worked so hard for something in my life, and it finally paid off. So here goes to another 2 years of H E double hockey sticks! I really felt like I was opening a mission call opening that darn letter.

Anyway, I was way happy, but life had to continue, so I jumped right back into more projects and finals. Grrr. But the light at the end of the tunnel is near and I can almost hear my homeland calling! That's right....Mike and I are planning a big trip to Brazil! I can't wait for this summer. We will finally be able to enjoy this summer together, without pre-wedding stresses and what-not!

Easter came and went. Can't say Easter Day was spectacular, since...I had the 24 hour flu. Let's just say it wasn't pleasant. Of course, everyone suspected otherwise of my sickness, but people really.. I'm NOT PREGNANT! Are you kidding me? I am barely surviving with a puppy, imagine a BABY!!! Getting back to Easter, we went to my parents house where we threw a second 1 year birthday for Gabby. It was so much fun! she looked like a princess. My mom went through all of the extravagances of throwing the best 1st birthday ever, and it was amazing!

In general, here we are; surviving and loving every step of the way! Thanks for all of your support through this first part of our new lives together!
