Praxis

Woohooo!! Dana finally got her Praxis scores and passed with flying colors!!! She was way above average on a couple sections!! I am so proud of her- she was super stressed during it all, but did great! Her scores were also well above the state reqs for Utah and Colorado!! So, if you see her, congratulate her!!

LU LU

I LOVE MY SISTER LU!!

She is so wonderful. She is in Japan right now working and I miss her A LOT :(

She always comments on my blog and she talks to me on msn :) She is so cool. She is probably reading my blog right now, but this is for her! She is such a great sister and she is always so nice to me. She is the best example ever!!

I LOVE YOU LU!!

Celebration Dinner!

What are we celebrating?? LAST DAY OF CLASSES!!
Nick is officially done with classes at BYU! So am I, I guess. I am so proud of Nick. He is graduating in April, I will walk with him, but I still have to finish my student teaching, which starts April 27th!

I decided that we would have dinner and do some other fun things tonight. Well, I planned out dinner and that went well, BUT Nick just left to take a final!! So when he gets back (probably around ten) we might be able to play a game of phase ten or something :)

Anyways, we are done and soon going to be out of here!! :) I am excited. I love Nick and he has worked very hard. Dinner was great, we love celebrating.

Easter!

Well, I would have to say that we had a wonderful Easter this past Sunday. The weather was beautiful, church was great, and it was great to visit family.

First-- the day before Easter I made some Easter cookies! They were so colorful, it made me happy-- I love decorating, even though I'm not good at it. It was fun!





Then Easter day, we of course, went to church. Sacrament was really good. The choir sang some beautiful songs, it's amazing how music can bring such a sweet Spirit to the congregation.

After church we headed up to my parents house. A lot of my family members were over because my cousin is leaving on his mission to Sydney, Australia this Wednesday. We didn't eat there because Nick's sister Hayley invited us to dinner!

Dinner at Alex and Hayley's house was SO good! It was nice to visit them and catch up-- I feel like we don't see them that often, so it was fun for us.

Then we came home and went to bed.

Date Night



On Friday night Nick and I went to our ward activity. Normally they are alright, but this time it was so much fun!! They turned our building into a cruise ship with different activities throughout different rooms. There was food too. :)

They had ballroom dancers from Provo high school for one activity in the cultural hall and they were teaching basic ballroom dance steps! I of course would not let Nick get out of this one! It was so fun!! It reminded me of all my fun ballroom dance days :) Thanks Mom for making keeping me in dance!!

They also had some mini-golf, bingo, and they chose us to be in the Newlywed game!! We didn't do too bad, we got second! The couple who had been married for 50 years won, and then us (a year and a half), then the couple who had been married for about 15 years.

I really enjoyed the night with Nick. We also went to the BYU senior night after, but they were pretty much done with all of the activities by then, so we just decided to go home.

It was a fun Friday night!

Nice Weather??



So... it's the second day today that it has been pretty nice weather, right now it's 64! I really hope it will continue to be like this. Nick and I took a walk outside yesterday and it felt so good. I can't wait for summer.


Update:

-I got rid of the beetles :)

-I updated the blog to a more Spring feeling because we are SO excited for the warm weather!!

-Only one week left of classes.. and then Nicholas graduates!! I have to do my Spring/Summer student teaching, then I graduate!

-I passed my exit interview.. and my CFA told me that he thinks I would do better in the older grades.. interesting.

-Finals are starting next Saturday.

-Nicks family is coming out--I believe Wednesday the 22nd--and we are VERY excited to see them!! That means we will have to clean our house :) haha.


-Nick is all signed up to go to Oklahoma dental school, but we are VERY much hoping within the next two weeks he'll get accepted to Colorado.

-I haven't found out what school I will be teaching at, but it could be an hour drive or a half hour drive depending on the school. I'm really hoping I'll get somewhere closer.

-General Conference was great.

-I'm sick. My throat is so sore and I have a really bad headache. Water helps very much :) So I need to keep on drinking.



Well.. by the middle to end of April we should be finding out quite a few things like where I'll be teaching, where Nicholas will be going to school, how soon he has to move, if I will be living at home for the whole summer!! So.. when we find out we will let you know :)

Bye.
