So much has happened in our lives! I feel like I need to play catch up since I stopped blogging years ago.
Ben and I LOVE to travel. We have hit up NYC, the Bahamas, San Francesco, Oregon, Vegas, San Diego, and Park City over the past few years together. We have been married 6 years now, have purchased our first home and are finally making enough money to pay our bills AND buy food. In some ways we are still on the move. Neither of us likes to sit at home. But we have slowed down a little given our time is no longer just our own.

That's right, we have two little girls, and a little boy on the way. Being parents is a lot of fun! We have had so many adventures together, and we are so glad we decided to have children. We will blog more about our family life and why we chose to have children soon.

I graduated from BYU in 2011 with my bachelor's in communications (print journalism) and minor in German. I worked for The Daily Herald until I had our first little girl. Now I stay home with her and our other little girl, teaching dance once a week at a local studio and piano and voice lessons an hour every evening from our home. 

The bulk of my day is spent with the children, cleaning and cooking. Sometimes I really suck at being a stay at home parent simply because I get bored and anxious. I am hyper organized and scheduled. In some ways that is good, but it is also bad. I will blog our schedule and why I do what I do soon, but suffice it to say I am slowly learning to relax and just play.

Ben graduated last year from the University of Utah with his degree in mechanical engineering. He works for a great company and is able to provide for our family and still find time to golf on his lunch breaks and spoil us after his 9-hour work days.

Ben has changed a lot over the past 3 years espcially. He and I will blog more about that in another post, but it should be known that Ben is a different man than the one I married. In some ways it is insane that we are still together, but as time passes, I am glad he was able to change and that he is doing all he can to make me happy enough to live with the fact that he needed to change.

We are excited to start this blog up again, because even though life hasn't always gone great, it truly is a wonderful life together.

Over the next few weeks we will be blogging about our family dynamics, how we take care of our children (which seems to be different than a lot of people we live around), our personal  goals, financial worries and triumphs, what almost ended our marriage, how our marriage is now, and goals for our family. We hope you will read along, comment where you can and enjoy what you learn.
