Bry has graduated!!!!!! :0)

Bry has officially graduated with a master of accountancy! He has worked so hard to finish up strong and I am grateful for his example to me! It's fun to see pictures of some of the people that were so instrumental in helping him get there.

Almost there!...

Wow, it's already been several weeks since I last posted anything! Gotta love how time flies! Life is going well. We are both trying to endure to the end with school and just have a little bit to go. Bryan has commented how often he has felt the sustaining power of the Lord each day. I think that is a testimony of God's love for us. He wants us to succeed, and is ever willing to help us. Aside from the hustle and bustle of school we have really enjoyed spending time with family AND watching General Conference last weekend. What a blessing to have chosen and inspired leaders to guide us!

French Restaurant---French 101 style :0)

Un Gout de Paris

un restaurant francais

Ch. 5 in my French 101 class was on food. I decided to spruce things up a bit so throughout the unit we had a cooking show, a taste-testing day, and then our final "project" was planning, preparing and carrying out our very own French restaurant. Each student was asked to bring a French food item, write a creative name and description (in French) to put into the menu and then translate the recipe into French for our bilingual cookbook. Anyway, here are some pictures from the restaurant. And I was SO thankful to Bry, Matt and Rach who came in to work in the kitchen. It was great!

Just keeping busy!

So I apologize that we got our blog up and running and then haven't posted anything. C'est la vie, eh? :0) Anyway, life is great! We're keeping nice and busy keeping up with school and such. Bry is definitely putting forth a noble effort to finish out his degree strong! I am proud of him! Things are not nearly as busy for me now that three of my ESL endorsement classes (BEEDE courses) have ended. I of course always have homework I could be working on, but I prefer working on lesson plans and experimenting in the kitchen! But don't you worry, the homework WILL get done...sooner than later :0)

This evening our Relief Society had a book review centered on the Savior. We were supposed to read anything we wanted (books, magazines, articles, etc.) on Christ and then come and share our favorite quotes and testimonies. It was funny because almost everyone ended up sharing from the March 2008 Ensign, and appropriately so. I was thinking how easy and cool it'd be to do a "book review" on the monthly Ensign.

So, there you have it a little update on what's new for us. We hope all is going well for you all as well! :0)

Goofy Graden marries Silly Sheets. This is what you get! :0)

Finally up and running!...

The idea of having a blog has been in the works for quite some time, and our blog is finally up and running! Anyway, we'll do our best to keep it up-to-date and worth visiting!

As of yesterday...

it has been FIVE months since we got married! How time flies when you're having a good time...and busy! :0)

Just as a little update... wedding plans are coming right along! Less than a month now til the big day! (August 23rd, 2007) Bry is currently in Germany working as an intern for KMPG. He flies back to Seattle in a few days and then will fly back to Provo on August 16th! Happy Days!!! :0)
