One time I started a blog. And then I started teaching. And that is when my blog took a back seat. I wish I was better at blogging. BECAUSE I LOVE IT! I would promise to be better, but I can't promise anything that big! I just hope I will be better!
In the mean time here is an update about what has been going on in our lives!!
I GRADUATED!!! Well kind of... I walked! I am officially now done with school and am just waiting for my diploma to make it official. But I walked in April, mostly for a day off, and because I am ALL ABOUT TRADITION and the August graduation didn't seem big enough.
The best support group. I thank my parents for helping me through these last four years, and I thank BYU for giving me Jordan!!
I finished teaching at Timpview. It was an equally sad and happy day. I was ready for a break, but so sad to be leaving my alma mater. LUCKILY that didn't last long because I have been offered a full time position to teach there next year!! So to all my students who cried when I told them when I was leaving (there were none, but a girl can dream) I AM COMING BACK! BIRD GANG 4 LYPHE!! But really tho, I am beginning to bleed orange and blue.
#Throwback. But really tho. I don't have a SINGLE photo from my first year of teaching. I am the worst.
We went to DISNEYLAND TWICE!! Seriously, I am so lucky that Jordan can sing, because that means I get to tag along on cool trips to sing cool songs with Vocal Point. Man I freaking LOVE Disneyland and could go on forever, but I won't because I am going to save that FOR ANOTHER POST! (You're welcome Vocal Point Fans and the FPVFF)
We moved to Denver!! But just for the summer! I was only there for 2 weeks, but we made sure to hit up VooDoo donuts TWICE. Because I love donuts and couldn't pass it up. Jordan was there for an internship with EY, and was lucky enough to receive a full time offer just a couple of days ago! So it looks like we will be going back next year!!
Also, my ONLY picture from Denver. Again. I am the worst.
TOBY TURNED 1!! I hate myself. But yes, I did make him a cake. AND HE LOVED IT! Maybe I will share the recipe some day. But who are we kidding. I can't cook and Ava made him that cake. Don't worry all your animal lovers, it was completely dog healthy!!
Gosh he is so stinking cute!!!
That seems like all of the big stuff. I am sure I am forgetting something.... Oh well. Hopefully a Disney post is coming soon!!
Man. It feels good to be back in the blogging saddle.
In honor of our 1 year and 1 month anniversary I thought I would blog about one of my favorite moments of our wedding. For years, one of the things I was sure I wanted to do for my wedding was do a first look. I think the look on the Grooms face when he sees his Bride is the absolute cutest thing in the world. So I could not wait to do my own. Honestly, these are some of my favorite pictures from my wedding!!
Today marks ONE YEAR of being married to the man of my dreams. Seriously. He is perfect. To celebrate I made a list of some of the greatest things we have done in our first year of marriage. I am the sappiest, don't worry about it.
ONE trip to Disneyland. The happiest place on earth. I wish there were more.... I miss the magic.
ONE perfect first holiday together.
ONE New Job.
ONE too many Vocal Point Concerts. Just kidding!! I seriously love going every time I get the chance! They are amazing, and having my hott hubby serenade me isn't so bad either.
ONE new addition. Toby is the best part of the Hale family.
ONE set of matching sweaters. We are the best darn chaperones Timpview High has ever seen.
ONE Perfect Christmas.
And ONE trip to Hawaii.
This past year has been a dream. I love this amazing man and I cannot wait for years 2 to 99.
