Big Decisions


So, I have been waiting to say things that have been happening this past little while! So I will have a lot of catching up to do. Here are some new things with us:

First of all- I found out I got accepted into the ASU Nutrition Master's Program about 3 weeks ago! Very exciting and a blessing! But I have yet to decide what I am going to do exactly. The Masters program is separate from the internships although it does include it's own internship. But I find out if I got into an internship next Monday!! Yikes. I applied for 3 and if I get into one then I will have to decide between an internship or the Master's program! That also makes it tricky because the Master's would push Craigs school back and my schooling would be longer but it would be a great opportunity. Anyways, it takes me a while to talk explain it all! But what it comes down to is that Craig and I won't know what are future will be until Monday and we decide! At least I know I have a back up plan and what a blessing it is to have choices. It is also a blessing to have a wonderful husband and family who have been so supportive. So thanks to all my family and Craig! We will let you you know what happens...

2nd - I graduate in May! So fun!


3rd - We had a surprise birthday party for Craig's 24th birthday! It was so much fun. The best part is that he had no idea and I actually kept the secret for 2 weeks! Oh I was dying and so tired of lying!! That's for sure. I had a big party for him at his stake center where I collected all our good friends and family and had a basketball game with everyone! Since that is Craig's favorite thing to do. I had lots of food and all of the rest of us chatted and cheered. We then went back over to his parents and watched the end of the Sun's Game. I love basketball, and so does Craig, especially with all his old buddies from high school so it ended up a success! Thanks to everyone for all your help and support. It made Craig's day!


4th - We celebrated our 2nd Anniversary in March! It was so perfect because we went up to our family cabin in Christopher Creek and we just had 3 blissful days of lounging around, taking walks, watching movies, eating and spending time with each other. The weather was so nice. A big thanks to my Grandparents for that wonderful little hide away!


So that's it for now - If your wondering why we don't have pictures it's because our camera broke a while ago, but we now have a new one, so get ready for more posts!

Good luck with that choice! I know it is definitely a hard one. Remember that as long as you're doing what Heavenly Father wants it will all work out. :) Besides, two years isn't that long. You should just apply for OT school... ha ha! More money in the end, easier hours/schedule, and more job availability! C'mon! jk Let me know what you decide and good luck!

That sounded like an awesome b-day party for Craig. I don't think any guy could of asked for anything better-(I may have to copy for Scott's b-day)
