I think this is a great idea! Thanks Uncle George for starting this! I agree with everyone that it is hard to stay in touch, no matter how much we may want to. I thought I'd start this post with just a little update on Phil and I.
We are now eleven months married- almost to a year! We live in a cute one bedroom apartment in Orem, close to UVU. I'm in my third year at BYU in the nursing program, and I'm just finishing up this semester. It's a little bit crazy with homework and clinicals, but I enjoy it! Phil is working right now and is getting ready to go back to school at UVU in January. He's studying illustration and is amazing at it! I posted his sketches above.
Our house is becoming quite full with all of Phil's easels and paintings, and all of my animals. I have currently rediscovered how much I love animals and worked at a pet store this summer. We currently have three rats, named Leo(the one in the picture), Gello, and Vage, two doves, named Maynerd and Dorthea, and two fish, which we don't name because we're still working on keeping our fish alive.
We are also in such a great ward! Phil is serving as the first counselor in the Young Men's and I'm the music director for the Primary. Phil loves being with the Teachers, but I have to confess I'm still getting used to singing in front of so many people! It's great being in a family ward finally and having callings.
We're having such a wonderful time being newly married and in school. I hope to keep everyone updated and I can't wait to hear from all of you!
Love you all!
