4 Years

May 2013

I just realized that I never did a post about our anniversary, which was on May 8th. That is mostly because on May 8th we were in the car driving to Circleville. When we got there, Dustin spent the rest of the day working on his derby truck. He pretty much has to work on the truck whenever he gets a chance because it is in Circleville and we don't go down very often. The next day, Dustin was gone all day driving from Circleville to Blanding for a job interview (that was the main reason for our trip). We were busy busy that whole week and never really had a chance to celebrate. I'm realizing that our anniversary is right in one of the busiest time of the year, at least for us.

Sometimes I think it's crazy that we've only been married for 4 years. Is it possible to squeeze so many life events into 4 years? Here are some of the things we've done in since we got married:

~Moved into our first apartment together
~I graduated
~I started working at Hillcrest
~Dustin worked at Logan City Parks and Rec in the summer and USU during the school year
~Moved to apartment #2
~Had a baby
~Dustin switched Majors
~Moved to apartment #3
~Dustin got called as Elder's Quorum 1st counselor for 5 months or so
~I got called as R.S. 1st counselor (still serving)
~Had another baby
~I stopped working after Eleanor was born
~Dustin decided not to do his USU job so he could concentrate on his internship
~Dustin did an internship with the Guardian ad Litem
~Dustin graduated in Social Work
~We got a puppy
~Dustin got a job as a caseworker in SLC

In a couple weeks, we will be moving to Holladay and starting a new chapter. Sometimes life gets in the way and you don't get to have big fancy expensive celebrations for every anniversary. It doesn't really matter, because the important thing is we are still in love, and still working together to make a happy life for our family. I love Dustin Penman. I am glad to be his wife and I'm proud of our accomplishments together.

Next year will be our 5-year anniversary, and this time you better believe we are doing something fun together! I better start planning now....
