One year!

Wow, it has been really long since we last updated, but what else is there to say besides the fact that we are entirely CONSUMED by school and work. I promise, nothing else super interesting is going on.

We have loved married life. I can't believe it has already been six months! Blows me away... every day! Here's what has been going on in a nutshell:

We had our first Thanksgiving and first Christmas together all within the first 3 months. It was fun to hang with the fam and eat 2 dinners each time... BUT I swear I will NEVER do that again. I couldn't even eat for 3 days afterward!
In January, we started The Biggest Loser- Duncan edition. The "love weight", as we like to fondly refer to it, needed to come off. I don't know what it is, but I asked other married couples and they said the same thing (or maybe they were trying to make me feel better)- that they gained weight after marriage. Well, luckily my husband still loves me even though I became a chunker!

In February, we went and visited my Grandma and Grandpa Spear in Colorado Springs. It was a needed break from school and nice to get together with family. We also got to see my Uncle Paul and Aunt Mary and my cousin Jake... He's grown up so much! That night we ate yummy fondue!! Actually, we ate yummy food all weekend! Thanks Grandma :) Love you!Attempting to feed Jake.. He's so cute!

Taylor and I have been working super hard in school... Taylor with his mechanical engineering and me on nursing- I got to do my OB and pediatrics rounds this semester. I LOVED it. I am going to have a very hard time choosing a capstone because I just love babies and kids. They are so fun to work with! Thank heaven this semester is coming to a close.

Disclaimer: here comes the cheesy part.

Taylor and I met on April 24, 2010... tomorrow it will be one year since our first date!
Taylor- Thanks for a nothing-short-of-amazing year! I never would have thought the day I met you that we would end up here. I can't believe we're married! I think I say that to myself everyday. I have loved living with you and learning more about you everyday. You always make me crack up... mostly at the dumb things and I think you like the fact that I laugh at ALL your jokes :). You also really know how to make me feel special and needed as a wife- even when I don't like to fold laundry! I'm grateful we're sealed for time and all eternity and look to many more years and years together. I love you!
