Weekend Update

Status

In May Mandi and I were married in the
SLC temple. It was so amazing and we love being able to go back to the temple and look at our wedding pictures to help remind us of the amazing day we had on the 23rd of May. Since then we've each been making our own adjustments to married life, trying to balance schedules, habits, likes/dislikes and family activities. All in all it's been great though!

Mandi is back in school working toward her Fine Arts & Teaching degree at UVU. She is also working at Hobby Lobby (@ the District), which has it's pro's and con's. Painting is definitely one of Mandi's main talents and loves in life. She could spend most of the day painting away at different styles and
ideas she has in her head. She has won a few awards recently for some of her artwork and will be featured in a 2010 calendar published by Alpine City. I like to boast that I've hired my own "in-house" artist, something not many people have. :)

For me it's mostly been about work, studying for the GMAT and trying to find time to relax through exercising and organizing our flat. No one can ever say to me, "well, you just don't know what it's like to be the one who cleans and cooks everyday," cause I do. Really though, I don't mind doing it, I just wish I had more time to cook and that Mandi had more time to enjoy a nice dinner with me before hurrying to do some homework.
