We're ba-ack!

Yes, after after a long hiatus we are back! And we are married! Life is so good and a month has flown by. Here's a little itinerary of our last month's world tour:

May 23 Wedding- Mt. Timpanogos Temple
May 24 Las Vegas, NV
May 29 Fresno, CA
June 4-8 Hermiston, OR
June 18-21 Clearwater Beach, FL

It was a wonderful, whirlwind month but it's so good to be back in our new little home and start a normal routine. We are so excited for July but before we move on, let's look back at the highlights of our travels:

WEDDING!
The day was lovely. Everything went smoothly with no horror stories to report (the worst thing was probably the rain, but it started promptly at the end of the reception, so we had a quick clean-up and no lingering guests!) The ceremony was beautiful and all of our families were there to share the day with us - it couldn't have gone more perfect :) :) Thank you to all who were able to make it!! We really really appreciate your support and love. Facebook will highlight the majority of our wedding pictures soon, but here are some of our favorites:

Dos semanas!!

It's been almost a month since the last post!! I apologize. Here is an update of the last month of our lives:

April 18th: I finished my last undergraduate final. Wow. I am still trying to process it. I also was honored with "BYU Public Health Student of the Year". Christian of course was honored as well when my presentor mentioned that Christian's proposal was during a public health event :)

April 22nd: Christian's last final for the semester. Whew! He did awesome this last semester and worked really hard. Unfortunately, no break as it was time to hit the ground running to get ready for the DAT in a couple weeks.

April 23-25: The Bennions were in town for John and Ida's graduation. So fun! We went out to Brick Oven and got to spend some quality time together, especially because I haven't been able to have much Bennion bonding time yet!

Christian also moved into the apartment this weekend. It will be so fun to set up our new little home! :)

April 2: The Bennions were in town again, this time for a shower with the Raleigh side.

April 9: Today.....Dos semanas or TWO WEEKS until the wedding!! We can hardly wait :) :) :)

At the BYU Public Health closing social

What you've all been waiting for...

Engagement pictures!! Yes - we're in love, we're in love, and we don't care who knows it! :)

Promote Health. Prevent Disease. 1000s at a time.

So, you may know that I'm a public health major at BYU, but don't feel bad if you're wondering, what in the heck is public health? or What do they do exactly? Well, in celebration of National Public Health Week this last week, I wanted to share a short video with you that explains more about what we're all about!

Ever wonder what public health really is? What it really does? http://www.generationpublichealth.org/

Also, this pic is from a successful event that took place on campus this week to promote our major! I was lucky enough to be paid all year long to plan this. The result? 2400 slices of pizza handed out, 240 lbs. of fruit, 450 iPod drawing entries, 400 free t-shirts, 10 professors out talking to students, four food-inspired costumed people, and tons and tons of people who learned more about public health!!

Engagements coming soon....

Hey guys! We made our photographer's blog!! Check out a teaser photo HERE. She'll post up more soon, and of course we will too! She's only been taking pics professionally for less than a year but we were quite impressed. She did an amazing job and was really fun to work with.

We got an apartment!

We are so excited!! Starting in June we will be living in a basement apartment in west Provo - not too far away from campus. It felt good right off the bat and we made it official tonight! Who hoo! Finally. Married apartment hunting in Provo is a bit of work. Thankfully Christian is a good KSL classified searcher - he found us a steal of a deal and it's even furnished!!
