There is something very bittersweet about closing a chapter in Life and starting a new one. It’s a little like when you finish reading a really good book, and it feels like you are losing a good friend, and then you think…. now what am I supposed to do?

I guess we are going to have to find a new book! Or rather… starting writing the next chapter!

Fun Weekend!

This weekend we had a ton of fun!

We went and played tennis for the first time in a LONG time with our good friends, and their little boy came along too :)

On Saturday I was able to get my hair done, Hans got his hair cut as well, and I got my ring cleaned…. Now it’s even more pretty than it was before :)

We spent time with Our besties Sarah and Jaren, roasting Hot Dogs, canoeing, and going out to dinner. It was a FULL and super FUN day!

Lately

We are still alive!

It has been a long time since I have posted…. because well, life has been crazy.

Mostly because Graduation is coming up! Like in Less than 2 weeks!

As exciting as that is, Finding a job and moving comes along with it, which is stressful, nerve racking, exciting…. and giving me all sorts of mixed emotions! And all mostly because it looks like we will be moving to the East Coast…… again. But this time for 2 years!

I won’t go into detail about how we are feeling about moving. Lets just say, leaving a great job, best friends, a good ward…. coupled with moving us and all our stuff that far, isn’t going to be easy. Not to mention being further away from family than we are now…..

Life is an adventure, sometimes exciting and crazy all at the same time!

So here are a few pictures of what we have been up to the past couple of weeks!

We have been enjoying the good weather :) Even with the wind.

I went to a CMA convention ( Certified Medical Assistant ) To get Continuing education units, so I can stay certified!

Easter and a Birthday!

This past week we celebrated my Birthday! I’m so lucky to have such good friends and family that made me feel so special on my birthday! I had such a good day!

I woke up, and Hans made me my favorite breakfast. Waffles with strawberries and whipped cream… yum! Then I opened presents from him and from my parents. Hans also got me a Kindle Fire. So great :)

Then I went to work and Had a good lunch, Cupcakes, and Bagels throughout the day. I love the girls at work!

After work, Hans took me to Texas Roadhouse…. Hence the scrub top…. It was so delicious! We both loved it.

017

After dinner, I went and had some girl time with the girls from the masters program, very fun, of course.

When I got home, Hans and I went to Kiwi Loco for frozen Yogurt :) I got a free yogurt for my birthday, and we got Half off if we hopped like bunnies, which obviously we did…. so we only paid $1.70 for both of our bowls of frozen yogurt :)

When we got home we just relaxed and watched shows on our projector. The day was as perfect as it could’ve been, and I loved it!

On Saturday this week we got together with friends from the program for an Easter party. We played games and ate good food, we had a good time!

On Easter Sunday We sang in Church together. We think it went really well!!  I guess that’s all I have to say about it, because we didn’t ever get a good recording of it from our practices. We are so glad we were able to do it though!

We also Hid each other’s Easter baskets like we do every year. A tradition we adopted from Hans family. Hans loves it :) In fact I hid his twice because the first time he found it by accident, and he wanted to try and find it again. I hid it very well the second time :)

We had friends from our ward over for Easter dinner, and then we colored eggs with them, something we love to do every year! I love seeing the creative side of people come out, especially Hans.

Our bean bag has become a real hit for the kids, we also invested in a “toy Bucket” to have for when kids come over.
