ONE DOWN AND MANY MORE TO GO

We made it to the first year mark as of Sunday April 26th. A lot has happened in those 365 days. First we were married in Utah and after spending a few weeks with family we went back to school. Summer semester we moved into a town home, camped for 7 weeks and then were separated for 7 weeks. During fall semester we moved to Heartland apartments third floor, for some reason I remember the move very well but Andrew can’t seem to remember it…oh yeah that’s because he was in NV and I moved our stuff up 3 flights with the help of Brent and Jess. When apple season came around we learned how to make applesauce and Andrew made a lot of it and I burned a lot of it. We finished up school and we both graduated with our bachelors degree in geology and Andrew got a job with Marigold Mine. After graduation we went and spent Christmas with the Backmans and were able to go to Hawaii for the first time. After Hawaii we moved to Winnemucca, NV. I found a job in town working with the disabled people in Winnemucca and I love it. While in Nevada we lived in the Marigold company trailer, Val-U Motel, the Felshaw’s guest room above their garage, and finally our HOUSE! Our house is so much fun even though we have already had a plumber come out twice and bought a new water heater (the first time the plumber came out he turned our water on while it was raining…when it stopped raining our water heater which is under the house kept making puddles, hence the need for the plumber the second time). So in 12 months we have moved 9 times, graduated college, got jobs, bought a house, and a lot more. Our first year has been a busy one and I am sure our next one will be just as busy and fun!

Seems to me that you have had an eventful year! I'm so glad you are in a house now, and that you both have jobs! Way to go!!! I'll have to come to Winnemucca some day to see you and the Wadsworths.

I love the Winnemucca sign — "Proud of it." Nice.
