Thank You Matt & Taylor!!


Thanks to this darling couple...
We have a place in Cleveland!!
I do not mind the search for housing...
but when it is in a place I have never been before...
that's another story!
Matt & Taylor currently live in Cleveland.
They had their eye on a place for us there.
It all worked out!
They were kind enough to send us the application
and research the place to see if we would like it.
Of course they did an AMAZING job!
We will be only a few minutes down the road from them!
Which means we will be in the same Ward!
We are also VERY close to campus!
We are so grateful!
Thank you!!

Adventures in April

For Dan's 24th birthday we:
went to a Salt Lake Real Soccer Game w/ friends,
ate a lot of shrimp,
opened presents,
and saw Avatar @ the Dollar Theater.






We graduated from BYU!!





Visited our families in California and of course ate at the
Crab Cooker:



Left Provo for Colorado and got caught in a snowstorm
which turned our
8 hour drive into a
12 hour drive:



Ate our first Sunday Dinner in our new place in Colorado:


I taped up some pictures for Dan in the bathroom.
These help us remember our goals for the future
and look forward to things we enjoy.



Visited 16th Street Mall in Denver,
saw Coors Field where the Rockies play,
and ate my favorite meal at The Cheesecake Factory!!
(Bang Bang Chicken & Shrimp)




Dan sells for EcoFirst Pest Control:
(Cute lil' Salesman)


And I will be spending my time with these cute kids soon!!

"Day by day, minute by minute, second by second we went from where we were to where we are now. The lives of all of us, of course, go through similar alterations and changes. The difference between the changes in my life and the changes in yours is only in the details. Time never stands still; it must steadily march on, and with the marching come the changes.

This is our one and only chance at mortal life—here and now. The longer we live, the greater is our realization that it is brief. Opportunities come, and then they are gone. I believe that among the greatest lessons we are to learn in this short sojourn upon the earth are lessons that help us distinguish between what is important and what is not. I plead with you not to let those most important things pass you by as you plan for that illusive and nonexistent future when you will have time to do all that you want to do. Instead, find joy in the journey—now."

March Madness

March has been quite the month for the Hall family.
We celebrated birthdays and engagements,
took way too many exams,
prepared for graduation and moving,
traveled,
double dates,
family history work,
school,
insurance,
group projects,
mission reunion,
family,
taxes,
and planned a budget for the next couple years.
Although it has been busy, we have been able to take some time for ourselves.
We traveled to Cedar City, UT to spend some time with Grandma and Grandpa Hall.
We relaxed,
watched movies,
ate good food,
drove around ZION National Park,
hiked, and explored.
Little did we know how much we needed a break!
We are back in the thick of it all but it is so comforting to know that finals are in two weeks! After finals, we are off to California for a couple days, flying back to Utah and then off to Colorado.
We are so excited for this summer!
We both have wonderful jobs lined up.
Dan will be selling Pest Control with Ecosure and I will be at the Gap and also a nanny for my cousin's three adorable children!
We have been blessed with great jobs and are looking forward to spending time in a new state!
Here is a little recap of our March Madness:

A double date with Brett & Natalie.

Birthday breakfast.
(Yes, that is hot chocolate)

ZION National Park.


Our drivers :)



And of course... Andy.

Mission Reunion.



Anticipating this:

While doing a lot of this:

3 more weeks!
