My sister Amber got tickets for Grady and I to go see Dial M for Murder at Pioneer Theatre. It was so good. I haven't seen the movie, and I had no clue what was going to happen. Before the show we went and ate at the Blue Plate Diner with Shawn and Klint. That place is so cool. Although, Klint almost knocked a pitcher of water out of the hands of our waitress, just trying to point to where he used to live; but the food was great I would definitely recommend it to anyone who has never been.

Back to School

School has started once again. Christmas break didn't seem long enough. Although, we were able to work a lot and make some money! It sucks to be the poor married college students, but good news I am almost finished! This semester is gonna be tough but after, Bio-Organic Chemistry, Statistics, Functional Anatomy, Prevention of Chronic Diseases, Physics lab, and an online PE class I will officially be a college-grad! Whooho! Although, it seems like I have been a student for so long, I don't know what it will be like to just work. But as long as it doesn't involve hours of homework and library time I think i will enjoy the change.

I am also way psyched that I am in a new anatomy lab, which doesn't stink like formaldehyde near as bad.

Our first Christmas together turned out great! It was filled with family, games, and surprises. We loved playing catch phrase with the families, opening presents, reading new books, playing with our new nephew, and just being together!

We were super excited about new stockings that Gaye made us, the huge bin of yummy food we were given, super cool boots for me to strut around campus in, Grady some new sexy pants, BYU vs. UNLV basketball tickets, Jazz tickets, and Wicked tickets!

Hooray for Christmas!

Old News

Grady and I and a bunch of his family went to see Into the Woods and Hale Center Theatre. It was so awesome and filled with tons of middle school flashbacks! The musical was really good but I still think my favorite part of the night was the amazing maple syrup pancakes at Cracker Barrel. Hmmm they are so good I want to go there again right now!
