Germ germany germ germany germ.. germ.. germ, geru!
Graduated from BYU this past week.. and I couldn't be more proud of this cute person. We have had so much fun in Provo.. but are ready and excited to move on to a different phase in our life... and I'll keep you updated when I'm updated on that next phase ;) .. only partly kidding...
Jeremy plans to start his MBA in the fall, as well as, pursue some business ideas at the same time. We said goodbye to Utah pretty permanently, and are hoping to end up in North Carolina for a couple of years starting in the fall.. and couldn't be MORE excited about it! We lived in NC for a few months right after we got married and it was GORGEOUS.
We are SO excited about living in new places and meeting new friends (although we will miss our Utahans! .. especially those at Jeppson Dental!!)
Yes, sad about being far away from family.. but they have ALL promised to come visit, and I'm one persistent lil bugger.. so I'll get em all here! .... and you all know how we CRAVE visitors.. so get your trip planned whether it is to Indianapolis this summer or North Carolina in the fall!
Try and tell me this isn't the yummiest-faced coug grad you have ever seen!
Congrats person of mine, so proud. Love, Luff, Luv you.
After we had Jer's little graduation celebration, I asked him what he wanted to do.. and this is what he chose... to shoot hoops and act like morons at a park right by our house. We played 1 on 1 and horse FOREVER.. and for the lack of time.. if you really want to know who won horse, leave me a comment and I'll get back to ya. ha.
Jeremy couldn't come to Idaho falls with me last weekend
bc he was finishing up some finals, but I went to get our car fixed and to kinda say goodbye to my
fav people. It was so refreshing to be with them.. and to be able to be OUTSIDE the whole time... making tinfoil dinner.. playing tennis..having josh try on my one piece
Christmas jammies...and a little 4-
wheel'n... and of coarse squeezing and smothering my sweetest nieces and nephews!
And we're off!!
On our way to live in INDIANA for the summer, where Jeremy will be selling home security,... we stopped in
NAUVOO.
What an amazing, humbling, and sacred experience. I wish I could put into words the feelings and thoughts that were going through my mind and heart just being in that sacred place, and being next to that incredible temple! Jeremy and I both had tears in our eyes pretty much our entire stay in
nauvoo. The town has not been very modernized and I think that was the neatest part about it... we could almost imagine what it was like as the
original temple was being built. Although, I can't even imagine the pain and heartache the saints endured through that
grueling time. The statue of Joseph and
Hyrum on their horses looking toward the temple was a powerful reminder of what they endured for the members of the church then, and all of us now. My testimony of Joseph Smith and the restored Gospel was renewed and
strengthened tremendously after this experience. Its a "MUST SEE" place to visit.
NEXT... we stopped in
CHICAGO!
Shopping central! Oh my good heck... that place is GINORMOUS! I have always wanted to go to Chicago, and now I know why! We ate at Gino's East.. known for its chicago style deep dish pizza... OMGOSH!!!!!!!!! Pretty sure that is the 8th world wonder. Ridiculously good, and well worth the hour and half wait... plus... you can write all over the walls while you wait!
It rained SO very much the day we were there, so Jeremy was on the verge of depression meds because the Cubs game was cancelled, poor guy. We'll def be back for a game and some more shopping.. and hopefully OPRAH!
We made it to Indy.. and are SO excited to be here.
We took a long drive today to get associated with our summer homeland. It was a beautiful day, and its so GREEN and beautiful here. We both love visiting and being in new places, so we are so so excited about our little 4-5 month stay in Indianapolis. We feel so blessed just to have each other, as cheesehead as that sounds. As I was sitting here thinking today about how different it will be not going back to Utah in the fall.. I just got a peaceful feeling when thinking that it really doesn't matter where we go.. because it will be together, and I'll always have my friend with me. WOW.. are you sick yet? .... please don't stop reading/visiting my blog because of that sappy comment, I'll keep it clean from here on out (for the most part).
We love all of you and feel so grateful for great friends, and AMAZING families. Come see us!
