~ Back to School ~

Christmas break is over and I'm back in school for my last semester. I graduate in May from the University of Utah! I am majoring in Family and Consumer Studies with an emphasis in Child Life Specialty and I am minoring in Nutrition. I know, it's a mouthful, but what it means is I hope to one day be working as a child life specialist. As a child life specialist I want to work in hospitals with children helping them cope and understand their hospital experience. I can't wait to start because I love this profession. I love working with children and connecting with them on their level, and really helping them out. It's so rewarding. I have only worked as a volunteer with a Child Life Specialist, but I've loved every minute of it as well as my Child Life classes.

It looks like i'm not the only going to back to school. Andrew took the LSAT last month and he did AMAZING! so he'll be starting law school in August. I'm way proud of my awesome husband. He worked way hard and he rocked the LSAT! He's applying for law schools right now, and we should hear back by the end of February early March. Some places that Andrew is applying to are San Diego State in California, some schools in Oklahoma, Connecticut, Las Vegas, U of U, and others that I forgot. It's weird not knowing where we're going to live in a few months, but it will all work out and I can't wait to start this new adventure with Andrew!

Holidays

Our stocking hung by the fire in our cute little apartment. Andrew and I stayed home in Salt Lake for Christmas this year. It was fun combining our holiday traditions, and it was a very relaxing Christmas. Christmas eve we drove around and looked at some awesome Christmas lights.

For New Years we went to St. George. Ben, Marsha and Cassidy were in town from New York and we had a family party New Years Eve. It was SO MUCH FUN! The theme of the party was 80's rock party. Everyone dressed up in their finest 80's attire and there were even some awesome mohawks. Here is a look at our awesome costumes.

As you can tell, we had a lot of fun!
