A quick review


Life is an adventure.  I’m going to start writing more regularly, but before I do I want to recap a little bit on the amazing experiences that this most recent chapter of my life has brought.

So in no particular order, in the last 5 years I’ve:



1. Met, dated, and married by incredible husband (this lead to other little adventures like moving to Salt Lake City, purchasing a car, and improving my cooking skills)

80s dancing!  Only time Jed has rocked this mustache




2. Ran my first half-marathon






3.      Enjoyed classes and deepened my understanding of gospel matters at the LDS institute

4.      Worked as a LEAP peer advisor, a technician at ARUP laboratory, and an assistant teacher at the JCC preschool and had eye-opening volunteer opportunities with the Welcome Baby program and Hser Ner Moo

5.     Began taking organ lessons and enjoyed teaching children new primary song as the primary music leader

6.     Learned to garden- and enjoyed some great produce







7.      Discovered a new favorite book: Anna Karenina

8.      Earned an undergraduate degree at the University of Utah (I've learned so much!)

9.      Went skydiving



10.    Traveled to Portland, Seattle, San Diego, Moab, Bear Lake, Jackson, and the Wind Rivers


It’s hard to believe that five years have already passed since I graduated high school- and here we are preparing for a baby to come in August!  I'm so grateful for the huge amount of support and love I've received from my family and friends- and very grateful for the new friends I've had the opportunity to meet. It’s been an incredible five years and I look forward to many more adventures in the future.
