If you need us on a Wednesday night...

You can find us in our bed watching last night's episode of Justified on our lap top....I adore the fact that

 it's "our thing"

Never forget...

Just thought I'd share what I've been thinking about recently, it's amazing advice. 

Once again I have been pretty bad at keeping up with our blog! I guess after all of our adventures in Miami and DC, and with Dan getting an internship offer, I haven't felt like there is much to write about. That certainly doesn't mean that life has been boring. It has been nice having a chance to really just spend time with each other as well as with our friends and family. 

Lately I've really been focusing on living in the moment and being truly happy with the now instead of always looking forward to the next step, or dreaming about the next phase in our life. I felt like I had been so caught up in those things for a long time, I needed to make a change. I wasn't seeing how truly amazing my life is RIGHT NOW. It's been a great change and I've noticed blessings I hadn't noticed before. 

Since we have been married, Dan and I have been striving towards one goal after the other. We haven't quit doing that by any means, but the last couple of weeks have slowed down and we have taken the time to just be with one another without any stress weighing us down. 

For Christmas, Dan signed us up for a cooking class in Salt Lake. We got to go to that a couple of weeks ago and it was so fun. It was a southern class so we learned to cook Fried Chicken, mac and cheese, collard greens, cornbread, biscuits, and chocolate pie. Dan seemed to find his calling with the fried chicken. Turns out he's a master fryer...who knew? It was a great time and I was so grateful that Dan took the time to share one of my passions with me. 

PS...getting used to going into the office everyday is proving harder than I thought. I got so spoiled working from home. How do people who work in the office full time get anything done? And the only people I have to take care of is me and Dan. I have a whole new respect for working mothers...geez...I'm exhausted just talking about work. 

We're Heading to the Concrete Jungle!

It's official! We are heading to New York City this summer!

Dan just accepted an offer for a summer internship at Goldman Sachs in the Sales and Trading Division. We are honestly so thrilled. When Dan told me he got the call I cried...and I was at work...haha they thought I was a bit nutso. Dan has worked so hard and spent so much time preparing for this and I am so happy that he was able to accomplish his goal. He is chasing his dreams relentlessly and I'm so proud of him. We are so blessed and so full of gratitude. 

So we are taking of for NYC in June. I'm a bit nervous but it is going to be such a blast!

In other news, there's not much other news...haha! We have been pretty occupied with interviews and nerves, but have been having so much fun hanging out with friends on the weekends. Have I mentioned how much fun it is to have friends near us again? After Dan got his offer, we went out to dinner and celebrated. It was fun to have our friends and family around to celebrate with us. That is definitely a plus to being here in Provo. 

Also, I am training for a new position at work. I am going to be actually helping customers fix issues within their software. The training has been a little overwhelming and has succeeded in making me feel like a bit of a dummy, but I'm working on it, haha. I just have to get all my training in before we take off for NYC. 

Now begins my obsession with finding a place to live in New York...wish me luck.
