It's been a little over a year since me and Tim were married! Boy how time flies by! Regrettably, I started a blog at the beginning of our marriage and haven't had the drive to be consistent with it ever since! I never imagined life being so busy as it has been this past year! I definitely have some ground to make up, so I guess I'll start by giving a little bit of mine and Tim's history together.
Like most married couples here in Provo, me and Tim met through our church! It was a monday night in 2010 when we first met and Tim had just finished his two year missionary service a week or two prior. After that night our friendship continued to grow and finally about 5 months later we started dating, and eventually after a year we decided to get married in the Salt Lake City temple. What a blessing our marriage has been for the both of us this past year. So many memories in such little time! After our wedding day we took a wonderful 4 day honeymoon cruise to Ensenada, Mexico and then hurried on back to Utah so that I could get ready for my last semester of Dental Hygiene school! This was probably one of the more challenging phases of our marriage (financially speaking). While I was in school, Tim was only making 8 dollars/hour working full time as a BYU janitor. When I look back I seriously don't even know how we ever made it by, but make no mistake we sure did learn how to grow up FAST and learned the importance of budgeting and making sacrifices. Tim is majoring in Spanish and at the same time taking all of the rigorous science classes for pre-med so after summer was over, he started up his second year at BYU. Thankfully, after our first six months of marriage I passed all of my boards test and graduated from dental hygiene school. Utah is definitely over saturated with both dentists and dental hygienist's but thankfully after a month or so of searching I was able to get a great job working full time! Tim is now going into his third year of school and now just got two part time jobs working for Jetblue and a pharmacy in Orem.
We love life together and have grown to love each other more and more each day. Of course, life's not always perfect, and there are occasions when we have our disagreements. I CAN'T STAND that Tim is a total insomniac and can live off of 4 hours of sleep a night. It's like pulling teeth trying to get him to go to sleep at a decent hour. It would literally be no surprise to me to wake up in the middle of the night to see Tim coming in the door with groceries from Wal Mart! Right now I am working with him on fixing his schedule and if he doesn't I'm going to have to start spiking his drinks with some Zzz-quil! Now if there's something Tim can't stand about me, it's my sneezes! For some reason when ever I sneeze I always let it out with an uncontrollable squeal at the end. This mostly bugs Tim when it happens during church meeting's or any similar setting. Tim thinks that I do this on purpose to draw attention but that's just not the case!
Without a doubt we are definitely each others best friend! We can trust one another and can't get enough of eachother's company. I am looking forward to spending forever with my husband and making wonderful memories along the way!
