Final Final of 2011

Yay! Shawn has one last final tomorrow and then its off to Christmas break for some much needed relaxation! I have totally enjoyed not having any finals this year and doing rotations instead! We are excited for upcoming Christmas festivities and Shawn's sister getting married! I have the Christmas shopping done earlier than usual this year! Wahoo!

A Temple Close By

We were very excited at the announcement of the Fort Collins, CO temple today by President Monson! This means that a temple will only be 1 hour away instead of 2.5. That will be so nice! Hopefully we will still live here by the time it gets built; however it will be fun to see the stages of it as it comes along! Are you excited or what?

A Record for Cold

At least for me anyways....it is -32 degrees outside and with the wind chill it 'feels like' -51! Brrrr.....and they don't ever cancel school here, so I have to go trek across campus! Hopefully I will still have my fingers and toes!

Shawn's Fantastic News

I feel like we have lots to be grateful for right now and lots of good news. Shawn will be graduating here in May with his bachelors. And then he has been accepted to Law School so he will be starting that in the fall! Yay, Shawn! I am on my last semester of schooling before I start a year of rotations. I am getting very excited and looking forward to not having tests each week...what do I do with myself?? I find myself daydreaming about what life will be like with no school, which is bad since I need to be studying. EEEKK....however, with it being negative 6 outside I don't have any desire to go outside, so that helps me refocus on my studies.

Winter Break

We have been having a very nice break so far. We got to go up to Worland for a while and visit Shawn's parents. The house was pretty quiet since no one else was able to make it up there at the same time, but we enjoyed the visit nonetheless. Then we headed to Casper for Christmas. I was chairman of the Iron Chef Family Edition and Shawn was a cook. It was a lot of fun! Christmas was great as always, we received many wonderful gifts and played lots of games. Yesterday, Shawn and I had our 3rd anniversary! What an amazing blessing I have to have such a great husband (right now he is making me some pizza...YUM!) Anyway, we are looking forward to the new year and I will post some stuff from Iron Chef soon!

Let It Snow!

So it is officially winter here in Laramie. We have gotten quite a few inches this week. I have really enjoyed it because it isn't below zero yet and it isn't blizzarding (that means we haven't had tons of wind). It is really beautiful when the snow falls straight down instead of sideways! Hooray for snow!
I have started to listen to Christmas music and have tried to put up Christmas decorations but Shawn won't let me. He says I have to wait until Thanksgiving....that's just silly!
Meanwhile, I am still studying my college life away and Shawn is too (most the time). Shawn is graduating in May so he is speedily on his way to his bachelors. I am still looking at a couple years of school but I tell myself that everyday I am getting closer...right? One good thing about going to school for forever is that I still can go to basketball games. Shawn and I have been able to attend a couple lately and have had a good time!
Last, but certainly not least, my sister, Alicia is one of four women that are putting together the Wyoming Woman Magazine. It is a pretty cool magazine for the women that live in WY (because we all know it is so different here than other places). They do four issues a year and just launched their first ever issue. It is pretty cool because they put in stories of WY women, recipes, and some funny stuff. This magazine really hits home for me. I was born in Utah and moved to Wyoming when I was still a kid. While I miss certain things about Utah (peach tree, and being able to grow other plants, predictable weather), Wyoming has captured my heart. This state is my home now and it is where I want to stay. I must say I am grateful to these four women for trying to connect the women of Wyoming! Anyway, if you are interested check out the website. Wyoming Woman Magazine
