And so it begins!

Alright well now that you know the before part here goes the last 8 almost 9 months of our exciting lives.  And by exciting I mean crazy and hectic!
Our first fun adventure was only a couple months after we had been married.  Marriage was as perfect and amazing as we thought it would be and then we ran into our first road block.  We were on our way home from a fun trip canyoneering trip.  As we were coming the back way through Panguitch Trevor's alternator decided to go on the fritz.  We had no cell service and it was getting late.  We were able to coast down hill for a mile or so and with spotty service our prayers were answered and we were able to call for help!  It was an unfortunate way to end a fun trip but now its fun to look back and laugh at.  There were lots of friendly people stopping to see if we needed help.  Trevor had a few card games we played to kill time and we got a nice nap in while we waited for his parents to come rescue us.
We have had lots of fun issues with his car since then... enough that I was about ready to crash it or "accidentally" leave the keys in the car for someone to steal it and take it off our hands! Haha but hopefully we've fixed all the issues and we can drive it in the ground.  I've actually grown quite fond of Trevor's Pathfinder.  We've pretty much taken it on every road trip we've been on and Trevor has all of his stickers on the back of his window from all the places he's been.
Moving on... Trevor did really well in organic chemistry last semester   Woot woot!  He had a pretty good winter semester despite throwing a wife and moving into the mix of things!  He currently is having a ton of fun doing his mammalogy project and catching different animal species up rock canyon in Provo.  He's still working at the MTC and gets paid to play basketball and sports with the missionaries all day.  Yes, he has such a hard job I know!  It was nice to have him work full time in the summer and make lots of extra mula to help pay for school.
I'm still working at Clyde Companies.  I'm a credit assistant for Sunroc Corporation.  I like my job and the people I work with.  I work full time so it makes it challenging to balance school and work.  Schools been going okay so far.  Its hard to get back in the swing of things after being off for almost 2 years but it feels good to be getting some classes out of the way.  I'll have my associates  hopefully by the summer and Trev will have his Bachelors about the same time.
Life is good and were excited for the holiday season!  Unfortunately we wont be spending our first Thanksgiving together as a married couple.  Trevor will be off in Guatemala on his humanitarian for a week and a half.  He'll be assisting the dentists that are helping the young men & women with their papers so they can go on missions.  It's a really good opportunity for Trevor and while I'm super excited for him 10 days is a long time for newlyweds! Haha
Well that's about it for us.  We've had lots of other fun mishaps but its brought us closer together as a couple and made our marriage stronger.  That's all anyone can ask for :)
