Dave's band concerts

I had to put this light on our blog because Dave is so sad. Dave took this light to his concert on campus Thursday night (yes it is the same sign Danny and Cory put in my living room window...) and it broke after the concert. He has been sad since then so I am putting it on here to make him happy!

Dave had 2 concerts this past week. He played on campus Thursday night and at a bar on Friday night. He is having a lot of fun being able to play his guitar since he isn't able to play it is way loud and we don't want the neighbors to hate us! Here are some pictures and videos. The video quality is not the greatest but you can see Dave playing the guitar behind his back and lighting his guitar on fire at the end of the show. He is a very good entertainer and everyone that hears him is amazed at how well he plays. I am proud of him! Thanks Danny and Candace for coming to his show!

1 year anniversary

We had our 1 year anniversary on Saturday. We went to Salt Lake for the day. We went shopping and then ate at Tacanos Brazilian Grill! We stayed the night at a cute bed and breakfast in Salt Lake. It was fun to get away even if it was just a night. It has been a crazy few weeks with getting my portfolio done and Dave's school work. I can't believe it has been a year. It seems like it hasn't been that long but at the same time seems like it has been forever:) I am so happy that I met Dave and he decided to marry me!! I love him so much even though he is so weird most of the time! :) Dave is heading out to New York today and I am going to miss him so much. It is sad the summer is already starting. The summers are not always the funnest for us anymore. It is good to live in new places but we both work so much so we don't get to do a lot of fun things. Hopefully this summer we will get some more fun in.

The beautiful roses Dave gave me!!

I have a job!

I officially have a job for next year!! I am so excited to have my own classroom! I will be teaching at an elementary school in Tremonton. I am not a big fan of Tremonton so this will be interesting! :) Don't be mad Randi Jo!! We are now trying to figure out where to live... I am trying to find a way that make sense to Dave for us to live in Perry. I am not sure it is working to well!

Dave's concert and Cory's visit

Dave's band had their first concert in Ogden a few weekends ago. Dave is so talented, it was fun to watch him! Dave enjoys playing but wishes they played a little softer stuff.

We had Dave's brother Cory stay with us for a week or so. He is going to be graduating from high school this year and we are trying to get him to come to Utah State!! I am not sure if we convinced him or not... We had a lot of fun while he was here as well as some adventures. We loved having Cory here and hope that he comes out to Utah. Poor Cory was probably bored while he was here since Dave and I were always at school. Cory did come to school with me one day and helped in the 3rd grade class. He did so well and the kids loved him! Danny, Dave's brother that is going to BYU also came up on the weekend. I can't believe I didn't get any pictures while they were here.

We went to Lava Hot Springs in Idaho and it turned into an adventure. One of Dave and my friends came with us. He forgot his swim suit in the car and went back to get it. The key broke in the lock and we were stranded in good ole' Idaho! My parent luckily were able to bring a spare key to Logan and his wife brought the key to us. The worst part of all of this was what Danny and Cory put in the window at my apartment that my parents saw....a blinking neon "Live Nudes" sign! My parents didn't think it was so funny and I am not sure what all of my neighbors think....I figured something to that nature would happen with all these boys together!

Baby Jarrett

Me and Baby Jarrett today! Isn't he the cutest thing ever!!! He makes the funniest faces.

When he was a few days old

So I finally was able to get to Perry and visit my sister and Jarrett. It seems so crazy that I live so close but am unable to get to Perry very often. I had so much fun visiting with them. Mckell has been soooo sick the past few weeks I feel so bad for her. She says she is not having anymore kids! :) I think this has cured my baby fever for the time being. Dave is happy about that. ;)

He is such an alert little boy. He is so strong also. He tries to life his head and moves around so much. Today when I was holding him he kept trying to stand and jump. You think I am kidding but I am not. I was actually a little freaked out. He is only 3 weeks old. The doctor was surprised at how strong he was. He is so funny and we are so happy that he is in our family!

***I also have another cute nephew James. Dave's sister Kirsten had her new little guy the first of February. I am so sad we live so far from them. She has 3 adorable kids and we hope to be able to see them soon!

Help!

I have the hardest time posting pics. If anyone can help me I would love you forever. Once you load a pic is there anyway that you can move it around or move the text. It always loads in a weird order and I can't move them. I also can't type anything above it or what not. I know a lot of your posts look so nice but I am not so sure how to do it. I also need to fix my top pic. PLEASE HELP!!! :)

I am half way through student teaching!!

So I have finished my Special Education student teaching!! I start my Elementary Education student teaching on Tuesday. It is so excited to be graduating this May. I am starting to apply for jobs so hopefully I can get a hob close by. I can't wait to have my own class!!!

The Special Ed department has all the districts in Utah come to Logan and interview us. Well, this year it was canceled due to the bad weather. We were all a little bummed since districts usually give you a job on the spot. Us girls made the best of the day and went to lunch!! We know how to have a good time and eat yummy food. :) We had a blast. It is so fun getting together with everyone I went through the program with. I miss not seeing them everyday.

My sister Mckell did have her baby earlier this month. I will post pics tomorrow when I see her.
