6 Years!


The last 6 years has flown by and so much has happened!  

We both graduated from BYU
John graduated from medical school and became a doctor
John finished his internship/1st year of residency
I've had 3 different jobs
We've lived in 3 different states (Utah, Iowa, & Indiana)
We've had two beautiful boys!

Our life together has been wonderful and I cannot imagine my life without him and our boys!  We've been through so much together!  Life has not been without great challenges and obstacles, but we have been greatly blessed in more ways than we deserve. 


Since we were in Utah for our anniversary and had family to watch the boys.  We decided to go to one of the most beautiful places on earth to celebrate for an overnight getaway, Sundance!  We took off up the canyon the day after Bear Lake.  It was so relaxing and the scenery was breathtaking with the mountains, views, & wildflowers.  It was so green and you couldn't ask for better weather!  We stayed in a rustic little cabin, ate at the Foundry grill (the food was to die for), hiked around a bit, rode the chairlift, talked for hours (which felt like only minutes) and just enjoyed being together.  I wish we could do this kind of stuff more often.

Hi Marie! How fun to catch up with you. You are just as beautiful as ever, and your family is adorable. The boys are too cute; I just can't imagine Josh being so old. He was just a baby when we left!!

It was fun to read about all your adventures. I am totally sold on Bear Lake, eventhough I have never been. It looks amazing! And you look awesome out there waterskiing. How fun!!

We are moving to Cedar City in November to partner with another pediatric dentist there. We would love to get together with you guys if you are ever out that way. Or we can meet at Lake Powell because it looks like you guys love the lake as much as we do :)
