Update on our life to this point

Since Mark and I got married Last year on August 15, 2007. We have been very busy with life. I'll just give you the quick update. We were up in Logan last fall semester while Mark finished up school. He graduated in Civil Engineering. He Graduated the same day as his mom, but they went to two different schools!
Now Mark works for a engineering firm in Salt Lake called CRS Engineers. I work for a shoe store called Chandlers Walk Shoppe, we sell specialty shoes and of course the very nice shoes that you wouldn't get very cheap, for example Dansko,
Merrell, MBT, and Aetrex, etc... i could go on forever. So if you need wide shoes or narrow shoes or shoes with better support, just let me know!

I went back to school spring 07 to Salt Lake Community College and worked on getting my Interpreters Licence for American Sign Language. No i haven't finished school, but I am going to be a full time mom come November 1, 2008. We are going to have a little girl and we are going to name her Anastasia.

So before this huge life changing thing is about to happen we decided to go on a couple trips this summer. In May we went to Philadelphia/New York to visit family. It was alot of fun and we loved every minute of it! We saw so much that i have always wanted to see!








Then in June we went to Sweden/London for two weeks! Mark served his mission in Sweden, and I went to London to live with a family back in 2005 so i wanted to go back and show Mark what I had seen when i was there! Mark had an amazing mission. The people there were the nicest people that you could ever ask for to have on your mission! It was so fun to see and met all those people that call him and e-mail him. If you ever get a chance to go to Europe you need to see Sweden and of course London! They are the most amazing places with the most amazing histories, it is hard to tell you about all of it! But all i have to say is that it was amazing and we had alot of fun. I wouldn't ever do again while being pregnant but i would do it any other time! Trust me it isn't very fun it slows you down! hahaha!

So that is a quick update on what we have been up to and just a few photos of our trips. We have more posted on our facebook pages. Just ask us and we can put more up! Life has been very busy! We still have a full 3 months ahead of us before Anastasia comes! We are loving life and couldn't be more happy where we are at! We are very grateful for everything we have!
