Three Blissful Years








Wow, it's crazy to think that just 3 years ago Jesse and I got married! Oh, how our lives have changed. Not only that, but it's been a busy 3 years. I started my first "real" job at USD. Jesse graduated college, entered med school, and now has 2 years done. Not only that, but we've become parents!! Let's look back at a few of the highlights...obviously, the wedding was a BIG day. It was a blast.













Here we are in Ireland. That was an amazing trip! We also visited London, Spain, and Morocco. The picture over the river was our first morning in Ireland after our red-eye flight. We were exhausted but ready to go. After endless searching, we finally found a coffee shop where we could get our french vanilla latte! Of course we also had to take our matching red D-Days coats. Jesse and I are already known as that "old couple" who dress the same. This was our countryside tour of Ireland.
This was our trip to Washington, D.C. where Jesse presented his chemistry research. We got the chance to meet all 3 SD representatives. Here we are with John Thune; he is a really tall guy!! It was great seeing the sights.
This is a picture in Morocco overlooking the ocean. To Jesse's dad surprise neither Ahna or I were kidnapped! This was the day I had camel poo all over my shoe and the tour guy was yelling at me to "just get in the van, we have to go." A whole different world.
To this day, we don't know what we were thinking dressing up as clowns for Halloween. We looked like idiots! I really think we could have spent our money more wisely =) When Jesse and I look at this picture, we just shake our heads. Wow, we're weird.
This was our trip to Kansas City. I had a national college fair to go to, which we almost missed, that Jesse got to go along to! We were so lost looking for the high school. Luckily, Jesse navigated us to the right place. Not sure what I would have told my boss! We got to go to a Royals game-it was so windy that day. We also ate at George Brett's restaurant and added a glass to our collection.
And, Vegas; that was a lot of fun too! Throughout all of these adventures, there's no one else I would want to go with. Jesse brings the fun and love into my life and I thank God for him everyday. Really, how many get to marry their high-school sweetheart that they met October of their kindergarten year? To many more happy years.
