the update

sorry folks...no pics, but again, it's been months so I thought I would at least give you (or anyone interested) the down low.

2010 so far is rockn', clint and I are both in school at the U of U, 4 weeks in and I'm finally getting movivated. little slow, I know, I feel like I get the worst 'cabin feever' durning spring semester. haven't skiied as much I would have liked at this point, wishing for warm weather, and so sick of SLC's inversion...seriously the air down here is disgusting! but my first test is next week, so motivated I must get.

honestly, I'm super grateful to be in school, learning and so close to being done with my bachelors. I love knowing things, I love meeting new people. I'm so glad I have a husband that fully supports my dreams (no matter how crazy) and cheers me on always.

Clint will have his bachelors the end of this semester...wahoo! he has earned it and then some. he is the hardest worker I know, and no matter what he always gives 110% in everything he does. for his senior project this year he is making a moon-buggy, in April he and his team will fly to Alabama and race it in a national competition that NASA puts on. should be pretty cool, I know they have and will continue to put lots of time into it.

Clint has applied to a few grad. programs, including one at the U of U, so around March/April we should have an idea of where we will be in the not so far future. kind of exciting really, I'm up for whatever is thrown our way.

I am still working at America First Credit Union, they work so great with my school schedule, no late nights and weekends off...it's a good set up for the time being, and more importantly, I'm just grateful to have a job.

Clint is still working at Rocky Mountain Mechanical, it's an engineering firm and he is getting great experience there. Not to mention he has great bosses.

We both still work at Diamond Peak Mountain Sports up in Eden...2 Saturday nights a month. Strictly to feed our skiing and biking habits :) but we love the people and love talking to customers about the sports and gear we love.

Just a couple of weeks ago Dan, my little bro., tied the knot with a girl from Salt Lake, Kelsie. We really love her and are excited to have her as part of the family!

That's about it, holidays were fabulous, lots of family, friends and much needed relaxation.

Until next time- cheers.

oh girl, I know what you mean!! Not enough time on the mountain this year, def a killer. Isn't your husband doing engineering? I forget which kind, sounds like mechanical? My husband is looking into doing his masters at the U in transportation. We get that nasty air in Logan too, seriously sucks! Way to go on last semester, I'm totally jealous! Thanks for the update, next time a pic or two, mmkay?
