SO! yeah we don't blog as much as we'd like, but I try when I can. Its hard being so busy. But man is it worth it! we have really had an amazing 3 years of marriage. Its great to have such a great relationship and to have your perfect match right there with u to do all the fun things with. We are definitely very strange, but it works for us haha.
So lets think...
July-mainly summer semesters of school I worked at ATEC with special needs summer school program that was fun and easy. Loads of "Hilltrips" as one student would say. We did go down to MD and saw the family Pam and Jeff stopped by Maryland that was fun!! way good! WE tried to go it crabs but we were on a time crunch sadly and couldn't do it. i want to take them out and try crabs! it would be awesome!
Super fun. Paul keep and I went to seven peaks and read the hunger games in between crazy summer semesters. An of course Dale and Diane came down! that was great. We went to a near by waterfall did A LOT of hiking! GO DIANE GO! Haha.. and we went to salt lake the gate way mall saw a movie a science museum and of course a Mexican restaurant! love it!
The elevator was soo huge!!
Aug- WELL Number one...helllooooo anniversary month!!! IT was wonderful. We took it easy and went to the water park all day.. then came home relaxed and got ready to go eat at the park and make some s'mores.. the gluten free graham crackers were a little weird, but the marshmallows and chocolate totally covered up the funk. It was great. We sat out in the park and enjoyed the beautiful stars. It was really fun just being together.. we made some crazy videos that made us laugh and we just talked about fun things. It was great.

Then of course school started up again recently and I went back to work and happily am part time! It is wonderful... I have been working with Amy now for 2 years going on 3 years.. weeirdd! I can't believe it she has been awesome to work under and with all this commotion and experience I decided to stop listening to what people were telling me I couldn't do and stick with my original plan of going into counseling psychology. It's where my heart is. I love working with people with disabilities and will still continue my ASL (sign language), but I just don't want to go into teaching.
This of works out perfectly and I will get my degree this April with Paul Keep! Except I am super sad because since we are graduating in different majors we won't see each other graduate
:( BUT at the same time we are so happy we are walking in April!! Woohoo!!!
I have been studying for the GRE and I am taking it at the end of the month! wish me luck! I am currently looking into Doctorate programs .. I am looking at the schools that have transitional programs which means I will receive a masters, but then transition into a Doctorate all within 5yrs! So that's cool.
This has been my plan forever, but I thought I couldn't tell people because every time I did I would get negative reactions. And yes I will still be having five babies haha. All the professors I spoke to said, students have babies and still do their doctorate.
My dad really helped me gain confidence to ignore people when they try to say I can't do something or shouldn't. I'm smart I'm aware its hard and it will be hard, but it wont stop me because to me, its worth it. And my dad told me "you can do anything you desire and believe it is yours". I believe that.
Paul Keep and I definitely try to make time for friends and fun, but that's hard work because we both worked 40 hr wks and 6 classes which is on average 18 credit hours. It feels great how close we are! we have done it we did and we will continue to work hard for what we want out of life.
last but not least a short clip of Diane's Triumph! turn the volume down the rushing water is way loud!
