The Past Year and a Half

So, I just remembered that once upon a time, I had a blog that I updated every so often with morsels of what's been going on in my life. And I realized that I haven't updated above-mentioned blog in a year and a half. I figured it's about time to try updating it. So here goes.

In August of 2012, I went back out for my last year of college. Sometime last fall, I got to go to the Brigham City Temple open house twice, once with Carrie and Nathan and the girls, and once with my roommates.






At the end of April, I graduated from college, which was really weird. It does not feel like I should be old enough for that. Nevertheless, I now have my bachelor's degree in English, and I am done with school forever, which is a very strange thought. I don't actually have any pics from that, actually.

On May 15, we lost Brinkley. He passed away that morning. I still miss him, so I had to mention him on here. He was a good dog. Really, I'm still convinced that he was the best dog ever. It's weird not having him around. This was the last picture I ever got of him.



In the summer of this year, we got to go to Puerto Rico, which was amazing. It's a gorgeous place.





Savannah and I both brought our Brinkley stuffed animals, and one day when making the bed, the housekeeping people put them together like this, which Savannah and I thought was adorable:



On our last night there, there were random fireworks, so we stopped and sat on the grass and watched those.


But we finally had to say goodbye to Puerto Rico, all dressed in our Puerto Rico t-shirts.


And I'm starting to realise that more has happened in the past year and a half than I thought. I'll have to come back for a Part 2 soon.
