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.

On Call

Starting tomorrow I will be on call for my job for one week.  From 5 pm to 8 am any of the clients from my company (not just my own clients) can call me if they are in a crisis--feeling suicidal, being beaten up by a partner, etc. And if it is serious enough I will have to drive down to their place to avert the crisis. If it is so serious that my 40-45 minute drive will be too long, then calling the police for the client is my other option. And then on Saturday and Sunday I will be driving down to Idaho Falls to drop off medications to clients as well as answering any crisis calls.

Needless to say I am nervous! Wish me the best! Most of the time the crises can be handled via the phone and not in person, and that is what I am hoping for!

that doesn't sound fun but good luck. I remember when Lar was on call and he would have to go into work at 3 in the morning. Not fun!
