I'm hoping at least monthly I can post a blog so people are a little up to date on our lives. Nothing much is happening, we are boring people. I guess that is what happens when you get married and are still in school and work full time so there is no time to be creative and let you know what I am doing :)
Currently, besides the normal work hours, Carson has a contract job that he has also been working on, adding another 10 hours a week. It is nice to have a little extra coming in so we are actually able to save money, at least for now. I have been busy but surprisingly loving all of my classes. The one I was most scared of is actually really entertaining, Marketing management. I am also still working as a student secretary for the School of Accountancy here are BYU and they treat me great, I love that job. I've been able to do some sewing, which is really fun with my new serger, and will soon have a post of my new tops :)
Lately I have had the chance to perform on my violin either in church and at Jocelynn's Baptism (my niece, daughter of Rachel). The piece I played for church was an Amazing Grace/As Now We Take the Sacrament/How great Thou Art Medley (I know long title) and I really wish Carson would decide to try and learn the piano part so we could play it together so that people, like our mom's, could hear it. I got a really nice compliment from a gentleman who was visiting that sunday and asked me to get a recording and then get it to him, ha. Then I just played the 3 baptism songs from the Childrens song book just transposed one so it was in the same key. I forgot how much I like to perform like that, but I also forgot now much I love being in a full orchestra, like I am this semester. So musically I have been very happy lately.
Well, there is nothing else really interesting, but as things come up I will post them. Thanks for reading those of you who do :)

Thanks, Marissa. I read it. And I love knowing what's going on with my delinquent cousin now that he won't come hang out with me anymore.
Marissa you are far from boring! I want you to teach me to sew. I can't believe we haven't seen eachother for 2 years, unacceptable!
"Oh, I also weekly skype with this random friend of mine. I know she really enjoys it, so I do what I can to humor her. All the same, it does take up about and hour of my time each week."
:) Love you.

P.S. My verification word is ryermyod. I think we should begin coming up with definitions to these verification words . . .
Ryermyod: noun. A very rare type of pipe only used for bathroom sinks that allows the water to come out in a ryer shape. (A ryer is an odd shape of star, by the way.)
