Life sure has been crazy since we have been home from Mongolia. We lived with LJ's family for a month while LJ worked at an accounting firm in Utah. I stayed home all day everyday because at the time we only had one car. That was a huge trial for me! I learned that I like to be busy. Relaxing is nice every once and a while but not all the time! I guess the grass is always greener on the other side - right? Christmas was a lot of fun! We went to Vegas (of course I thought it was fun! haha). LJ was too generous as always! I was just so excited to spend time with my family and to get out of the cold!

School started January 3rd so we moved in to the new Apt on New Years Eve! Lyle and Melissa came with us to move in (SO nice of them) and after a lot of sweat and almost tears we are moved in. Moving is the biggest pain in the bum especially when it's freezing outside! It was so darn cold - duh! It's Rexburg!

I thought I was going to have more free time this semester because I am only working one job - boy was I wrong! I am performing with the jazz choir on campus, Vocal Union, this semester and while it doesn't feel like work because it's so much fun - it takes up a lot of time! And, I am also performing in Opera Scenes this semester which takes up my evenings! My classes seem to get harder each semester (naturally - since they are now upper level courses)! LJ, who is now majoring in accounting is transitioning well, but I think he is worried about the work load to come! It is hard to find time to spend together alone and relaxed. We usually fall asleep watching LOST which brings me to my next point.....

When LJ and I first started dating I would go over to his apartment and he would be watching LOST (the TV series). Whenever I caught glimpses of the show it looked amazing! Well, he finished up the show this semester and told me that I needed to start it. So, I watched one episode and it was pretty darn good. The day after I watched the first episode I ended up staying home sick - I had the worst cold of my life! Well, don't judge me but I watched 19 episodes of Lost that day! I know, I know - sick and wrong! I have no problem admitting that I am addicted to Lost haha Luckily LJ understands my addiction - hello he started it! haha

A few weeks ago I was talking with my friend and she mentioned that a website called thedatingdivas.com had a Lost themed date. So, I checked it out and ended up planning the date for LJ and I! It turned out SO SO SO cute! I am so grateful that there a people with adorable ideas who make it easy for people like me (who have zero cute ideas) to copy their ideas and look like a good wife haha LJ loved the date! He thought it was so cool! Thank you divas!

I am so lucky to be married to LJ! He is a great husband! For Valentine's Day he surprised me with dinner! It was the sweetest thing ever! How did I get so stinkin' blessed? I just love that handsome guy so much! It's amazing to know that even when life gets crazy and overwhelming I can turn to my best friend and feel at peace!
