Chris got accepted to BYU and will be starting in May. I have never seen him so excited!! He is working at a company called Qualtrics and is loving it. He works in sales with a few of his friends and one of his favorite mission companions. The company is flying him and his mission companion back to Chicago and then to Perdue to do a couple trainings for some universities and represent the company at a big sales conference.
He also started up playing soccer again...not that he really ever stopped, but now it's official! He and some of his highschool friends decided to start an official team. At first I was nervous because usually he's the keeper and always gets sprained fingers at the very least. It always made me cringe a little watching him dive for the ball when he played in high school. lol. But it's actually been a lot of fun watching him play again! He's rotates with another teamate for the keeper position so he doesn't get completely beat up. Mostly he's loving playing again, and I'm loving watching him play!

Our Life Right Now
Wow, so I'm jumping into the blogging world. I didn't know I had a blog until somebody reminded me. But I created it when I didn't even know what a blog was...so I'm trying it again. This is all new for me, and I'm really bad at this stuff, but excited to try it out, and keep it updated this time.
Chris and I are amazingly busy right now in school. We hardly see eachother during the week. We are gone from 6:30 am until about 9 pm every night. And our weekends are mostly filled with homework. Free time feels like a forgotten dream. When we do get the luxury of free time it's mostly filled with sleep. lol. We are working fulltime and full time students. (Don't ask me what we were thinking. He's going into Business Management at BYU, and I'm at UVU majoring in...actually it depends on the day you ask me. I decided at the beginning of this semester the last thing I wanted to go into was english, so I dropped all of my classes and am just trying to boost my GPA this semester. In the last week I have debated between nursing, phsychology, Community Health, and Elementary Ed. I'm hoping to narrow it down in the next couple weeks or so...hopefully...I'll keep you updated.
Our family plans were post poned at the end of January when I began bleeding at 9 weeks pregnant. I went in and got an ultra sound and found out that the baby's heart had stopped beating, and I was having what's called an "inevitable miscarriage." Chris and I were both heartbroken, initially. Thankfully with a lot of prayers it has turned into a great experience, especially for me. I was really struggling for a while, and just wanted an answer as to why it happened. Time after time Heavenly Father brought peace to my heart letting me know that that baby was ok. I came to understand even more about how He knows and loves each one of his children. I was able to really strengthen my faith and understanding through some very tender experiences with the spirit. I love this gospel and I'm so thankful for the knowledge that it gives me. I'm thankful for my husband, and the love, blessings and support he gave me through this experience.
