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.

Viking Night

Sam has  been watching Lord of the Rings lately and has been taunted by the several scenes depicting slabs of cheese, bread, and flagons of mead. So he had a brilliant idea that we were going to have our own little Medieval Night for dinner. We went to the store and purchased one of those rotisserie chickens, three different types of cheeses (none of which I had tried before, and I love them all now...munster, havarti, and smoked gouda), a baguette, and for mead we bought Martinelli's sparkling cider. We ate with our hands and drank the cider out of real German steins.
We had so much fun! It was a creative idea, and so simple and inexpensive to do, and the best part is the memory we made (we took pics on the disposable camera), and I think we may just have started a new family tradition :)
