One Year Anniversary

One year ago on September 5th Kreed and I were sealed together in the Idaho Falls, Idaho temple. It is the best decision I have ever made. After being married to Kreed for a year I believe more than ever that he was the perfect man for me. Although we are similar in many ways, we are definitely opposites in many other ways. If you know the color code for personalities, Kreed is mostly red and I am mostly white. This actually works out great because when he likes things to be done a certain way I could care less as long as it makes everyone happy. We absolutely love to be goofy and have fun. Over the last year we have been keeping ourselves very busy with school and work. Kreed has been working full time at Broulim's while off track and then practically full time while going to school in winter and spring. This is because in order for us to keep our health insurance through Broulim's he has to average 30 hours a week. Needless to say, he gets worn out pretty fast. I will be graduating this coming April with a Bachelor's in Exercise Science and minor in Medical Assisting. My goal is to get my CMA (certified medical assistant) and work full time so that Kreed doesn't have to and he can focus on school. Kreed is about half way done with his undergrad in biology. He is hoping to go to Optometry school as soon as he can. So as for now, we are here in Rexburg preparing to survive the upcoming winter.

Fun Summer


This was my very first trip to Yellowstone National Park (at least that I can remember). I was really amazing and we had a great time aside from the fact that I felt like throwing up the whole time. I had just come down with Mono the same weekend. I thought I was going to make it until we were on our way home. I was able to open the door and get my head out just in time to keep Kort's car clean. I was so miserable that I missed the whole next week of school.








This is Kelti and her two boys Tasen and Blais. My only two nephews... for now.














We love camping. Almost as much as we love water skiing. And apparently Kort loves smores.
















This is how the Bowmans get ready to watch a Boise State football game. More food than all 14 1/2 of us can eat in two sittings. I love pregnant Mel coming back with seconds; or is it thirds? :)












This is my newest niece, Ellis. She is almost eight months and still bald.
She is the funnest baby I have every met. 80% of her day is spent laughing at everything in sight. Way too cute for words. I sure miss baby Ellis now that they have moved away to Pocatello.












This is my nephew Blais having "fun" with his uncle Kreed. He asks for it every time :) but he secretly loves it. As most of you know, the majority of our summer is spent at the lake having fun in the sun.

Hoover Dam



I know this was a year ago but I thought it would be fun to put some pictures up. This was when Kreed's family came down to Vegas for our second reception. We all decided to go down to the Hoover Dam and explore. Needless to say we had a blast. I am so grateful for all of my in-laws. I couldn't have asked to marry into a more wonderful family.
