We have offically moved back to the great land of Utah. Katie and Braydon have been here for about a week now and I just got here yesterday. As of now, we are living with my parents and Katie's parents through out the summer. We have begun looking for a place to live so if anybody knows of a 2-bed appartment in the area of Orem-Highland, please let us now.
We do have some pictures of Braydon's school graduation but I will have to find where our camera is first. We're excited to be back and see everyone in person at sometime this summer.

Last Update Until Utah
This will be our last update from here in Arizona. This weekend, my parents will be down here to pick us up. They will be here Saturday afternoon and hopefully most of our stuff will be loaded into the back of my dad's snow-mobile trailer. Then we will have the rest of the weekend to relax and clean. Everybody will then be off to Utah on Tuesday except for me. I have my last summer seminar on June 2-3. So from Tuesday afternoon until June 4th, my friend and I will be here with each other while both of our families will be back home.
The Diamondbacks and Braves game was really fun. The Braves won 2-1. We left after the 8th inning to try and beat the traffic out of the D-Backs game and also the Sun's crowd trying to get to their game (it was Game 7). Braydon had blast and we have a new picture album so go and check it out. After the game, we went to a local mall and had dinner at the Rainforrest Cafe. It was set up like the real rain forrest with gorillas, elephants, snakes and butterflies that came alive every 10 minutes or so because of a "Lightening Storm." We sat by the gorilla and Braydon would look at them nervously every time they came alive. Overall, it was great to have our last outing to Phoenix.
We are canceling our internet tomorrow so we won't see your comments for a while, but please leave them for us to read.

Soakin' Up The Sun
Since school has been out, we have been hitting the pool every day (sometimes twice a day). We decided to take advantage of the weather and work on our tans. Since our bodies haven't seen the sun for approx. a year, Katie and I haven't turned a "Golden Brown" but more like a "Lobster Red" (sorry no pictures). That's alright because in a couple of days, it should be a nice tan.
We help our friends with a garage sale and decided to add our entertainment center, desk, and some old clothes to try and get a few bucks. We ended up earning about $30.00 and only have a few clothes left that will be donated to Savers, Salvation Army, or our stake center that has a DI trailer.
I got my grades back and ended up with 7 A's and 1 B. I was excited when I saw them considering I thought I was going to have 2 or 3 B's. I guess I can't complain. The rest of my collage year spent on interns will consist of only Pass/Fail classes so I'm set for the rest of my collage life with NO GRADES!!!!
We are heading down to Phoenix tomorrow to watch the Diamondbacks play the Braves. I'm excited to take Braydon to a MLB game and have a last visit to Phoenix before we leave (which is in 10 DAYS!!!!). We'll take some pictures and put them on our website before we move.

Been a Slacker
Since school has been out, I've been a total slacker when it comes to updates on the website. My finals finished last Wednesday. Thursday, our friends and us got a baby-sitter from our ward and we went out to dinner. We went to a local cafe inside the Little America Hotel. It was alright, nothing to brag about. We just went yesterday to the Lava Caves (Ice Caves). I was going to take some pictures but our camera wouldn't work. The cave is a cool 32 degrees year round. So, in the summer it's cool inside and in the Winter it's warmer inside. We have been trying to get rid of all our food so we've been having a lot of dinners together.
I just finished the book "The Da Vinci Code." It was a good book and would recommend it to those who like to read. Yes, I know there is a lot of stuff being said about the book, I just wanted to read it before the movie came out. I am thinking of getting the first book (Da Vinci Code is the second book) and reading that also. It's funny how fast you can read a book for pleasure vs. a text book!!!
Grades come out some time this week, so I will fill you in on how I did.

It's Over
It's official!!! All of my book works is over in the Physical Therapy program here at NAU. I never thought this day would come (neither did Katie). All I have left is Finals and 3 summer seminars. Since I still have to study for finals, this entry will be breif.
My class made a softball team to play in intermurals. our team ended our season with a 1-3-1 record (Yes, we tied a game). I went 10 hits out of 18 at bats (.555 avg.) but I won't tell you how many times I got on base because of errors or fielders choice. It was fun. I havn't played softball since I was on the Nature's Sunshine team with Jake and Brad about 4-5 years ago.
Well, better get off to studing.
I almost forgot!!! I passed my NAU review exam. It's an exam to cover the last 1.5 years. We need to pass it with a 60%. I got a 73% on it. It was broken down into three different sections. First: 100 questions over the first year of the program (84% in this section). Second: 50 questions over our first semester this year (72%). Third: 50 practice PT Board questions (60%). They gave us a break down on the questions of each class so now I know which classes I need to study more for the "Real" Board Exam in a year.
