Scott and I are approaching our 6 month anniversary! I can't believe how fast time flies! I'm having a hard time keeping up. No seriously, I am literally having a hard time keeping up with the pace. Is it normal to gain 10-15 pounds during your first 6 months of marriage? Scott and I have been embracing this strange new phenomena called "we actual make meals now" like champs, and have only cried together occasionally after discovering its dire consequences. Okay, so I've done most of the crying.
 The only thing that keeps me together is the shred of hope Mom gives me every few months when I see her. (I confide in Mom in all matters that require brutal honesty.) If I were gaining weight, she would know and speak it immediately. Am I right? Of course! Then again, are my seam splitting jeans and the number on that scale just a figment of my imagination? Gross.
Despite what you now may think! Scott and I are still pretty active people. Two weeks ago I went rock climbing, (We intend to make it our new hobby, unfortunately Scott last minute couldn't attend.) we are on a softball team, and tomorrow we are going horseback riding! I am super excited for that! For years I have wanted to go and it just seems too perfect that we are going the day before our 6 month anniversary.

I'm guessing word has gotten out, but in case not, I am currently interning for Tina's Business, Renew You. It has been a really great learning experience so far. In fact, I am loving it! I am creating her website, writing/editing her content and when that's done, I'll really push her social media. The website is not completely finished yet, but you should all check it out and like it on facebook. www.renewyoulmt.com

 On top of this great learning experience, my boss also asked me to create a completely new method for hiring students involving virtual resumes (short video clips highlighting one's resume and/or answering why you would be a good candidate for a position). I honestly didn't even know what a virtual resume was when I started, but I found a site that would allow students to post their virtual resumes without being seen by anyone other that Sister H. and myself. The site has been really successful and I am really pleased with the results, and so is my boss. She gave me a raise and even asked me to interview all of the students applying for a position! The interviewing starts Monday! All of these opportunities I have been given lately have just been incredible! Like I said, figment of my imagination or not, in one way or another I'm having a hard time "keeping up" with the pace of life.

 I call this sand which rock.
 Climbing at the City of Rocks.
 A recent trip to Yellowstone.
 Old faithful!

Here are few photos outside of the temple. I have yet to receive the photos from the reception but expect to see those soon! I wish I had more time to write, but life is busy. Just for a few quick updates... I'm going to school and approaching my last semester! It's exciting yet terrifying when I think about my resume. :) I still work at the library, Scott is graduated and is currently working construction with Headwaters, but as of yesterday all of his interviewing paid off. He will be working at Premier Performance Parts in their accounting department. He gets to wear a suit rather than a paint splotched shirt and the pay is much higher so we are jumping for joy!

We've managed to be married a month with only one casualty. Scott cut himself with a multi-slicer. Do you know what it is? I hadn't until we got one as a gift. It is really awesome, but extremely dangerous! That sucker can cut through anything, even fingers. Please read the instructions if ever you get one! That's all I have to say; otherwise you'll spend the afternoon cleaning flecks of blood off the walls, ceiling and counter tops while you have a fever. Yeah, that was fun. So to sum everything up, life is great and we really are loving every minute of it.
