A Few Updates

Wow, I am obviously not good at this blogging thing. But, I figured I'd finally get on and post some updates on our lives!

Todd: Todd made the Summer BYU Ballroom Team and is loving it. He has practice for at least 2 hours a day starting at SEVEN A.M.!! He has several performances coming up that I'm really excited about :) By the way, he had a really great performance last term when he was on the Spring BYU Ballroom Team :)

Todd also has a great job right now as the Marketing Specialist for a local business. He got it through his connection from another company that he was willing to intern at for free for a few months. I used to think it was ludicrous to work for free, but Todd sure has shown me how much working for free for just a while can really pay off in the end!! He's really enjoying it his new job :)

He sure is keeping busy with the Ballroom team and working full-time. Him and I also just finished up a Marketing class that we were taking together. It was the last class we'll take together :( but it sure was fun to work together.


Me: I'm working two jobs right now that are both very challenging for me, but very rewarding. I'm working at a therapeutic boarding school for adolescent girls aged 12-18. I spend time with the girls getting to know them and helping them through tough times. I also do court ordered supervisions for a local agency and love working with all of the cute kids that I get to meet there!!

I'm also graduating on August 11th (in just a little over a month)!! It seems like it's coming up way too soon. I am finishing up 3 classes right now, but will completely be done with my undergrad so soon that I can't believe it. Also, some crazy news: I am the Valedictorian for my August graduating class in the School of Family Life at BYU!!! Crazy, crazy.

That's about it for us right now. We're just keeping busy and can't wait for the little break we'll take for my graduation and for my parents and Todd's parents to come up to visit (which we are super excited about!!) :) One more month till a great vacation!!
