5th Wedding Anniversary!

Can you believe it's been 5 years since Dave and I got married? Crazy. 

To think of everything we have been through I am so glad it was with him because I just don't think I could've handled it without Dave.

2012

London Olympics

Watching Imagine Dragons in Oxford

2013

Finally going through all the infertility testing. This was my laparoscopy. My body didn't like the drugs very well and it took a while to recover before they let me go home.

Riding Family vacation through Europe! That was soooooooooo fun!

Italy

Paris

And Dave getting his visa so we can move back to Utah!

2014

Doing our first failed IVF cycle. We named this embryo Darcy.

I finally finished data collection on my PhD

Then my Mom died. My dad recently got a phone call (you can't believe everything my dad says because he is really good at embellishment) that said my Mom didn't die of a pulmonary embolism (blot clot in the lungs), but of cancer. So I got her report from the Medical Examiner and she did die of pulmonary embolism, but not one but many. Apparently there were so many in the pulmonary arteries that the Medical Examiner didn't count. She also had a hiatal hernia in her upper left quadrant and two gallbladder stones with the largest measuring 3.7 cm. She must have been in pain, but didn't say anything because she was stubborn and didn't like going to doctors.

And then we bought our house. Dave was so excited because it would have taken forever to buy a house in England. 

2015

We got Goldy! Seriously why are pets so good for your soul? Even though I am allergic to cats it is worth it because he is adorable!

Then my nephew and nieces came to visit and they stayed at our house! 

Dave replaced the sink with minimal help from me and we have actually begun to get organized and unpack.

Dave works at Comcast and keeps getting promotions. I always knew if a company/supervisors got to know him they would love him and want to keep him around. Well he is funny, but also works hard.

Plus we were so excited about seeing Star Wars 7! 

2016

Goldy keeps growing

We started working on our garden. It's mostly made of weeds so it will be lots of work.

Then we had our second failed IVF cycle. We named them Blair and Kyle.

Dave is eligible to apply for US citizenship this year!

I really am glad Dave and I get to be on this life journey together, not just for while we are living on Earth but for all eternity. I wouldn't want to do it with anyone else.
