Update! Sorry for the picture overload!

Here we are the middle of September. We have been keeping very very busy with school and work and all other random activities. I guess it's a good thing we keep busy so we aren't too bored! I received a calling at church to be the Visiting Teaching Supervisor, so I'm keeping busy with that too... 

Here are some of the few things we've been up too:

 Grant is working at the MTC West with me! He is working in dining services, while I am teaching Lithuanian. We are both enjoying our jobs!
 School started! We are Juniors this year, which means 2 years or so and we graduate yay!

 Here we went to my cousin Kalli's wedding reception and her husband sang to her in Portuguese, it was great. 
 Then we drove straight over to a dessert place called The Chocolate and we met up with some of my Baltic Mission Buddies :)

 My first BYU football game didn't go as well as we thought. 
We got to the stadium just in time for the craziest weather storm we have seen here in Utah. 
The game was delayed a few hours so we came home and found the next door apartment complexs' roof on our side of our complex. Talk about one strong storm!
 Grant is taking his Athletic Training Lab and has a lot of practice to do, so it looks like I have become his patient.

Finally we made it to the temple! It was insane to think that it was our first time back in the Provo temple being married!

 Our 2 month anniversary was adorable. Grant new that I wanted to roast s'mores with him on the Bell Tower lights (I've done it before with friends) so he set that all up and we ha. d a relaxing night together

 Our Parent's are the greatest! Thank you both for sending us boxes on the same day! Mom- thanks for the banana bread it was so yummy! Shairlyn & Larry- thanks for the apples, we have already made 2 apple pies!
 Grant played volleyball Friday night with our 2 friends Daniel & Spencer. Grant is an awesome player!
 The BYU football game finally happened. We played Utah State, although we lost, Grant and I had a lot of fun screaming with the crowd and taking some fun pictures! The very last photo is President Uchtdorf at the game~ awesome!

There we have it for at least the past few weeks :)

FRIENDS

Last night we met up with my old companion and her friends, which happen to also be our friends from last semester. We went to the BYU girl's soccer game and had a lot of fun chatting and cheering the team on. Sadly BYU lost to Cali by 1 point made in the last 2 minutes or so of the game.
After everyone wanted to come check out our apartment, so we ate brownies that Grant had baked and chatted for a few hours. We love our friends!

2 Months!

Two months!
I may be slightly freaking out righthisveryminute!
It has been two exact months today that I have been MARRIED! Just 8 months ago I was returning on the plane home from far away Lithuania. Never would I have thought I would be married this soon. Nonetheless, it has been heaven, probably because I married  my best friend and the man of my dreams. Next thing I know; watch out time will be gone again and I'll have been married for 25 years! I can't imagine that long just yet, but I'm looking forward to it! Oh eternity....

I wasn't looking for any type of celebration, but Grant surprised me as he normally does last minute. He took me to the temple and then we roasted s'mores on the bell tower spot lights. I love spending quality time together and doing such simple things! I love life & I love my husband!


Finishing our Summer off with some fun!

Off course we had to take our little hike up to our favorite cave. We call it our Summer home, which finally has some greenery :) It was perfect weather for a fun hike!



 
So the above picture just makes so much sense. We live in UTAH! 
I thought Grant was going to be sick....he just isn't the biggest fan of living here haha.

Below....I finished my MTC Teacher training!  

Here we are just soaking up the rays!
As one of our wedding gifts we got the coolest disposable grill, so of course we had to try it out!
We enjoyed our BBQ with some yummy burgers! 

My old companion invited us to go boating with her family. 
This was Grant's first time doing anything while boating other than just sitting on the boat. 
Here he is attempting to wake board! 
We LOVE tubing!



 So long sweet Summer break...now onto school...
