Catching Up

It's been too long since our last post. We've been so busy. I'll try to catch you up.

Spencer graduated! He graduated from Utah State University with both his Bachelors Degree and Masters Degree in Civil Engineering (Geotechnical Engineering). He graduated Cume Laude! We are so proud of his academic achievements. Thanks to all of our family and friends who came in for this special occasion.

It was great to have Spencer's family in town

Before the ceremony we had a BBQ at the Alumni House, for those who wanted to participate in this awesome occasion but didn't want to sit through the long ceremony. (Who can blame them). It was wonderful to see everyone, including my family. Thanks to Mitch for being the grill man and Becky for taking the photo's. Although she hasn't gotten those to me as of yet, so no pictures of the BBQ.

The day after the BBQ my sisters, mom and Aunt Christine through a baby shower for me and the boys. It was great. I got to see and catch up with a number of people I hadn't seen in awhile. Including old roommates, old ward members and family. The support was overwhelming (I may have cried a little, I'm usually not so girly, I'm blaming it on the hormones) and greatly appreciated. I didn't realize we needed so much stuff. A huge gracious to those who planned it and helped pull things off, it was perfect!

Among all of this Spencer and I closed on the new house, packed up the old apartment and moved from Logan to Syracuse. Because we are expecting I haven't been as much help as I would have liked. As a result Spencer has been trooper! The only problem is he isn't feeling 100% either. He has had a virus for going on a month that keeps manifesting itself in different ways. We've been to the clinic twice in the last two weeks. It's so unlike him to even been willing to go to the doctor. Thank to those who helped us move, namely Becky, Kim and Cory. I think we would still be in Logan without their help!

Spencer and I are both a little surprised at how much stuff we have. It borders on ridiculous. But unpacking is coming along. Slowly, but it's coming. Although things have slowed down a little more as Spencer started his new job this week!

As you can see, it's been a little crazy. I hope to post on a more regular basis from here on out, given life doesn't get to crazy (right!)
