Craig just finished up helping coach the Women's soccer and volleyball teams at BSU. It has been such a great experience for him. He will be starting back up with Men's basketball shortly. Hopefully all of this will lead to a great job or graduate school opportunity next year!
I've been staying home with Keegan but am now looking for a part time job as it looks like I will be going back to BSU this fall. I am so excited! Not being in school the last two semesters has been really hard on me. I need to be studying and writing research papers, I am one of those weirdos who just loves school. Until then, I have just discovered all of the historical documentaries on Netflix. HEAVEN!
Keegan is as busy as ever. He is talking in full sentences now and just learning like crazy. He is still obsessed with Elmo but his new favorite is Lightning McQueen. He always wants to wear those pajamas, watch the movie, and play with his themed toys. It is so fun watching him grow up. It's been really hard at the same time realizing he is not a baby anymore. His other obsession is water. He wants to take baths all the time in our big tub so he can splash and "swim" and he loves going to the splash parks. He got to go to a couple of lakes this summer and on his first boat ride and he was absolutely thrilled!
In other really exciting news (at least to me) the book I co-wrote is now up on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. I also found out it is being used at a college in Oregon as a textbook!!! It is so surreal seeing it sold at major booksellers and knowing that I spent a year working so hard to produce my chapter. I can't wait to see what other opportunities will come my way. I am itching for a new project to work on!!!
We just got back from 3 days in Eastern Idaho for a family reunion and to see some great family friends. It was so much fun. Craig and I had not been back since we lived there when we were first married. I cannot believe how much BYU-Idaho has grown! It was also really fun seeing our first apartment and where we met and everything. I was struck once again by how beautiful the Rexburg LDS Temple is. It really is a beacon on the hill. Keegan was enthralled with it and kept yelling: "Temple! Temple!" I am glad he is excited by the temple but we had to remind him to use a quieter voice...especially since a few weddings had just gotten out!
