Through Sickness and Health

I have thought about blogging about a million times...but I just have so much to catch up on. I mean we had Christmas, the New Year, Bryson's Birthday, Valentine's Day and everything in between.

Teaching has kinda consumed me. When I get home from teaching all I want to do is watch Netflix and call it good. I love it when I have no plans on the weekends. I just get so exhausted. Bryson has been wonderful. He totally doesn't judge me for being lazy. When we have a free night we do like to eat out and go to the movies. Things we both love. We go to the gym together and play soccer together (we are on 2 teams together). I have been getting back into soccer, and am so grateful I can play again! I can't explain enough how much Bryson has been supportive to me. Some days I just need to cry and let it out and Bryson will just hold me and tell me everything will be alright. I love my job and I know I'm in the right career, but that doesn't mean that it is easy. Sometimes it is the students. Working with special needs students takes a lot of patience and keeping calm when situations are not calm. Sometimes its my coworker or parents. Not all adult have common sense, and not all have the same opinions. But it's all about learning to work together to hopefully in the end benefit the kids.

Well I guess I should attempt to catch up. So here we go...

1st Christmas Together
Since both Bryson and mine's families are in Highland we split our Christmas time between the 2 families. It was a nice Christmas. My brother's family was in town from Arizona, so we got to see them some. I love all my nieces and nephews...and they all love Uncle Bryson.  Christmas time will always be special to us because Bryson asked me to be officially his girlfriend on Christmas day 2014.   

Matchy Matchy
 New Years
My parents got these cool Chinese laterns from a neighbor. We did them with the grandkids and it was a lot of fun. So far 2015 has been good, and I love the start of a new years. 


Bryson's Birthday
For Bryson's birthday we went to Salt Lake and stayed in the Hilton for a night. It was a fun little get away, and made possible by Bryson's friend who gave him a free hotel night. 


Valentine's Day
We celebrated both on the 13th and 14th! We decided to make it a tradition to paint pottery like we did last year. It was a lot of fun. We love painting pottery! Then on the actual 14th we had foil dinners with some friends. It was a nice chill evening. 



 Everything In Between
I got the Crystal Falcon (basically teacher of the month).

Did I mention we like eating out? Especially Banana Leaf!

Teacher vs. Student's Basketball Game. I love the people I work with, especially the one on the left.

Miss Hadley turned 4. She had a tea party, and of course the Aunts were there.

So about the title of this post...Bryson has been sick a lot since we have been married. In fact, he is sick right now! I feel like I bring home a lot of germs, and so he is getting all of them. I've gotten sick a few times, but nothing like he has! I don't mind taking care of him, but I like it best when he is better. We sure are still madly in love with each other and wouldn't trade this time for anything.
