Summer lovin'

This past month has been one hectic month for sure. Finals week was killer, but we managed to survive the horrendous "death week" and passed all of our classes with flying colors. Now we're just enjoying our 7 week summer break in Rexburg until the Fall Semester starts. I can't believe how fast Spring semester flew by. And didn't we just get married like a couple weeks ago? Since when has it been 4 months?!

During finals we took part in a dance competition for our Social Dance class. All the classes throughout the course competed. We danced Cha-cha and waltz and ended up doing really well in both. We made it into the semi-finals for Cha-cha, but unfortunately got creamed by the other competitors. However, we received 3rd place in waltz! YAY for a great dance partner that knows what he's doing. ;) We'll be taking Latin dance this upcoming fall. Totallllllly excited:)


My mom came down for a few days to help in preparation for finals, along with helping us get our thank you cards put together. Phew! What a relief to get those done! If you haven't gotten one yet it's probably in our last pile to send off. No worries, we haven't forgotten you:)


I got a summer job working maintenance with a few off campus men's and women's apartments through my brother-in-law's brother-in-law. Ha:) Don't ya just love those awesome connections within families? I've worked 2 weeks so far and it's actually really fun. We deep clean (white glove) all the apartments since literally none of the girls know how to clean. I'm serious. It's disgusting. We also tape the apartments and paint them, put in new carpet, paint railings, paint parking lines in the parking lot. But it is mostly so fun because I get to work with Saraiah:) Yeahhh girl! Brother-in-law's brother's special girl. ;) Another funky connection. But seriously, I love this girl and I'm so blessed to be able to work with her.


Tayler's is and will still work on campus with the Course Improvement. I'm still searching for a Fall semester job. So.... crossing fingers! I've put in a few applications to different places. We'll see...

Hmm, let's see... what else? Oh! I got my tongue stuck to an ice cube for the first time ever! Seriously hurts. I wouldn't recommend it. Lesson learned to always wet the ice cube down before deciding to chew on it.... Even though it's technically bad for your teeth...

We are so stoked to finally go on vacation! One week with the Robanske/Francom/Parsons posse and the next week with the Christensens. We can't wait! More to come on our crazy upcoming adventures:)

This is how we spend our Friday nights...

This is how we spend our Friday pranking nights with Saraiah ;)
