So I knew it had been a while since I last blogged, but I didn't realized it had been 6 months. A lot has happened in the last 6 months, but I'll do a quick update (and of what I can remember).
Dustin applied for graduation and will graduate this August. We're so excited for him to be done. Hopefully this will mean we'll be leaving Utah. We both feel like we've been here long enough. Hopefully we'll be somewhere with no snow this next winter. Fingers crossed! Dustin also got a job at Orbit Medical. Right now he's a Jr Sales Rep, but once he graduates he should get his own territory.
Dustin and I both celebrated birthdays the last couple months. Dustin- May 10, turned 24, Me-June 19, turned 22. Dustin says he feels old and I just can't believe how old my siblings are... which kind of makes me feel old. For my birthday we say the movie The Proposal and if you haven't seen it I highly recommend it. It's really funny and cute. Dustin even liked it and he rarely likes chick flicks.
Dustin and I also celebrated our 2 year anniversary on June 28. We can't believe it's been 2 years. Everyone keeps saying it seems like yesterday they were standing in 115 degree weather at the temple haha. We watched our wedding video and I think I'm going to make that a tradition to always watch on our anniversary.
Well those are the big things I can think of right now... probably because they've happened so recently. Hopefully I'll be better at updating this. Oh and taking pictures, I'm so bad at that.

Showers and Sundance
Yesterday was a really good day for me. I had the opportunity to throw one of my best friends a baby shower. I have known Lauren since Freshman year of college, but it seems like a lot longer. She is one of the nicest most giving people I've ever met. She is going to have a little baby boy named Holden Mckay Farrer. She's due Feburary 15, but we all hope he comes a little sooner than that. I know I can't wait to see him.
Lauren and I on her wedding day. I was lucky enough to be her maid of honor.
All of us girls at the shower.
Then later that night a bunch of us went up to the Sundance Film Festival. We had tickets to what we thought was going to be 3 short documentaries... boy we were wrong. The "movie" started, if you could even call it a movie, and we were in for a bizarre surprise. The screen started flashing different images with strange dialog and sounds playing with it. Dustin and I kept looking at each other trying to figure out what we were watching. After 23 minutes of craziness the second documentary started. This one actually was a documentary. It was about bees. Yes I know, doesn't sound very exciting, but after what we had just experienced at least we could follow and understand this. Then the last "movie" started. There was a white box on the screen and it faded in and out. This is ALL IT DID! This one was supposed to be 44 minutes. Dustin and I just started laughing. Many people in the audience began walking out. We couldn't believe that someone made this, thought it was movie, and thought that people would acutally enjoy watching it. We left after about 15 minutes of it. We then went and got hot chocolate, walked around town, and tried to see some celebrities... with no luck. All and all it was really fun, but one of the strangest experiences.
Dustin and I in front of movie posters... all of which I'm sure would have been better than the "movie" we saw.

There's No Place Like Home For the Holidays...
And we were lucky enough to spend the Holidays with both of our families. My job was nice enough to let me off for two weeks so Dustin and I got to escape the cold and see our families! We spent the first week in Bakersfield. We had a blast shopping in LA, having dinner with family, making cookies for Santa, watching Chloe dance, watching the kids open up there presents, watching movies, and just spending time with Dustin's family. It was so great.
Playing Candy Land with Tanner and Chloe... aka spiderman and the princess.
She wouldn't smile because Dustin was taking the picture. She kept us laughing the entire time!
Then we spent the next week in Mesa. There we enjoyed warm weather (like 70 degrees), watching more movies (Marley and Me is amazing by the way. Highly recommend it!), shopping (mostly Rachel), going to the HUGE PGA Tour Store, golfing (Dustin), eating at Tia Rosas (my favorite restaurant EVER!), and again just being with family. We could not be more thankful for both of our families. They are so amazing and we had a blast with everyone. We wish we could see them more often.
Temple Lights!
I took my mom to eat Sushi for her first time and it was seriously the BEST sushi I've ever had!
Dinner at Tia Rosas. I miss the fish and shrimp tacos already :(
PS My new years resolution is to take more pictures while we're with family. As you can see I'm not very good at having my camera on me and then using it. Hopefully I'll get better at that soon.
