Our Life Together

Rexburg, ID, United States
We've been married for 5 years! We met here in Rexburg, Idaho where we lived in the same apartment complex, volunteered with similar church callings, and attended the same university. It was only a matter of time before we'd bump into each other! Kelly graduated with her bachelors in psychology and has since been working with mentally ill adults and children. She has been accepted to Drexel Univeristy for her Masters in Higher Education Administration and Organizational Management. Sam recently graduated from Brigham Young University-Idaho with his bachelors in English Literature. We've had so much fun and so many growing experiences in the past 5 years, and have weathered so much good and bad during our young marriage. And we love each other so much more as a result of the happy and sad experiences that we have gone through hand in hand with each other and with the Savior. Our life is a simple one, but it's ours and we're glad to have it.

Our 3 Year Anniversary!

This Tuesday Sam and I will be celebrating our 3rd anniversary! I can NOT believe how quickly the time has flown!  Since Sam was so sick last year, I am making an extra big deal about this anniversary. I started the celebration this past Saturday with a surprise to the symphony for Sam. He loves classical music and learning about space, so when I read about the Idaho Falls symphony celebrating NASA's 50th anniversary with a piece called The Planets and by having images of space projected during the symphony, I jumped at the opportunity. We had great balcony seating and could see the whole symphony. He didn't know we were going until soon before we left. This Tuesday we are going to the Rexburg temple to celebrate our sealing. Since we both work that day that is the gist of what we'll be doing that day. Then on Friday we are going to the Destinations Inn in Idaho Falls. It's a themed hotel and we'll be staying in Rome :) On Saturday we'll spend the day visiting the Egypt displays at the museum of Idaho and maybe get a bite at the Snakebite Restaurant....it's really yummy. Check out the Destinations Inn at www.destinationsinn.com  I am so thrilled for this week with Sam! (And I love that I've lost some weight before the anniversary....I'm a few pounds closer to my wedding weight of 3 years ago :))

I am so happy for you guys. I hope you have a great time. I remember how disappointed you were last year that you weren't able to celebrate. The hotel looks awesome. Make sure you post pictures when you get home.
