Back into the swing of school!

School started up again on the 11th! Adam and I are both taking classes. Adam is taking some at SLCC. He seems to like them for the most part even though he is in class all day on Tuesday. I am very proud of him and I know he will do well. I am taking 3 classes but only one of them is technically on campus! It is pretty crazy for me to have such a light load but it is kind of nice for a change. The one thing I am really excited about is that this semester I actually have an internship! =) Yay! I will be at St. Mark's Hospital working with a recreational therapist and patients on physical rehab. I am so stoked! =) I start the being of February!

Other than that life has been pretty good! We are still getting used to married life! And that definitely isn't easy sometimes but I love it! I wouldn't trade it for the world. We are just enjoying each other and the time we get to spend together! We took some pictures with Tanya in our wedding clothes! We went to the Salt Lake Temple. It was a lot of fun! We love to take pictures! =) If you want to see them, go to Tanya's website at tanyagarside.com. Our engagement and my bridals are also there too! =) 


 I am very excited for our first Valentine's day together! I am not sure what we are going to do but we plan on celebrating the day before and then we are spending Valentine's day with Adam's family. It is my brother-in-law's birthday! Hope everyone enjoys their Valentine's day! =)

My 1st Christmas with Adam! And New Year's too! =)

What a wonderful Christmas it was! It was the best thing in the world to spend it with him and not be alone this year. Unfortunately, I was not able to spend Christmas with my mom and godmother last year because I worked and there was a bad snow storm. So we had Christmas on Christmas Eve and then I went home so I didn't get trapped in the storm. Anyway...Adam and I bought little stockings for each other to go on our cute little pseudo fireplace. We decided to open those before we headed to Ogden for Christmas Eve and Christmas. Adam got me a new SD card because I somehow lost my other one and some socks. I got him a giftcard to GameStop and a Reese's Tree. =) Slyly, I asked Adam what he wanted to get with his giftcard and he told me he wanted to get the first BattleFront which is a Star Wars video game that he loves! Little did he know that I had already bought it for him! Hehe!
















On Christmas Eve, we headed to my mom's house. We did some food shopping and then went to the Christmas lights downtown! It was a lot of fun but we were freezing!!! They have cute little decorated playhouses! And one of them had Santa marrying an elf couple! =) We thought it was appropriate sine we didn't get married too long ago.



Then, we went back home and got to open a present. That has been a tradition with my family for a while. Probably just to keep me calm. Ha! Anyway..we went to bed because we didn't want to get caught awake! ;) The next morning, we woke up and opened our presents! It was a great Christmas!!! We had so much fun! After we opened presents, Adam and I went back to bed for a bit and then watched Night at the Museum and Harry Potter 6 with my mom. 



















































Then, New Year's we spent with Adam's family. It was a little rough but it was a lot of fun and I enjoyed spending time with family! And I got to kiss my love at midnight which was the best part of it all. =) 
I remember saying 2009 was going to be the best year ever because 2008 was not the best! And it turned out to be the best year of my life. I can't believe all of the changes and all of the wonderful events that happened to me. I was very blessed with happiness and love! I sure hope that 2010 will bring me the same! I hope everyone has a very blessed year!! =) And thanks to everyone who made 2009 the best year I could ever ask for!
