2008 In Review

I know I have been pretty awful at updating this blog, especially considering I have only made one post but 2009 is a new year so I will hope for the best. To summarize 2008 and catch up on the many things I didnt blog about I thought would post photos of quite an exciting year.

We went skiing for my birthday

We went to Australia in May, where we visited Sydney and Adelaide.

We visited with friends and family and took a walk down each others past.

Then I said Good Bye Cache Valley, Hello Tucson in the beginning of June.
It was challenging move and thanks to the Thompsons, who took me in for awhile, I made it through until Preston came in July.


In the beginning of June I also started school at the University of Arizona in the Accelerated BSN program.

We "settled" in a city called Sahuarita and after another couple of challenging months we were doing just fine.

In August we went to Nogales, which about 30 minutes south of us. It was a neat experience and made us grateful for the blessings we have in America.


In October I ran in the Get Moving Tucson race hosted by Carondelet, the hospital I will work for after I graduate next August. Jerene, a classmate from the program, ran the race as well.

Preston came and cheered me on which was great and I was happy to meet my goal of finishing.

In November Wilson, an English Springer Spaniel, joined our family.

He tons of fun, a lot of work, and we love him.

Then the months of October, November, and December came where we carved pumpkins, ate Turkey and celebrated Christmas.

So there you have it, 2008 all in one post. With New Years just around the corner I have made it a New Years resolution to post once a week. At the end of next year we will see how I did.
