Year in Review

I was just thinking over the past year about all the many things that have happened this year. It's been a busy one that is for sure! It's been full of many wonderful things.-The best of those of course was getting married to Chad! If someone had told me in January that I would meet a cute BYU engineering graduate and we would date and getting married that summer and then move to Nebraska I would've told them they were crazy and never believed them! I wouldn't have believed them because I had this grand plan all laid out that I was going to finish up school, run marathons, and then travel to Europe. Yes, it all sounded so great! However, the Lord had a different plan in mind for me.-A much better plan! I know I could've probably gone on my merry little way without Chad, but life is so much greater now and I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful husband. He is so sweet and thoughtful and now I can't imagine life without him. So here are some pictures of what I have been up to this year. Sorry there are lots of them and I don't know why but some are randomly small. Enjoy! Me and Chanelly at her surprise b-day party

Michelle, what a year for you! I don't know which was a bigger event: your wedding or the 1/2 marathon? But I HATE running. I'm so proud of you! You have done so many great things... you're quite the girl. I'm proud that you're my cousin!
