1 year later


Dallin and I have been married for a whole year!
Does this mean that we are no longer newlyweds?

Things I have learned in the past year...
-Cooking doesn't necessarily run in the family
-"Prepared yellow mustard" is actually just regular mustard
-Applying to med school is a full time job for like 4 months
-It is possible to live for 5 days on $30
-We love lake Powell
-We also love Detroit, but for different reasons
-I am not that nice when I am hungry
-The only time that Dallin gets grumpy is when the Utes lose
-The avenues are not like Sandy... if you leave things visibly in your car, it WILL get broken into
-The Mitchells do not mess around when it comes to Disneyland
-Praying every night together does wonders for a marriage
-It is not always smart to mimic what the people on 'The Biggest Loser',
especially when they are doing handstands against the wall and you forget to put your hands down
-Dallin is still nice to me when I crash his car
-Our missionaries (Elder Outsen & Elder Mitchell) are rockstars
-Dallin's friends somehow never get sick of nicklemania-
me on the other hand...
-Living in a really old house causes it to flood more often
-Dallin likes to practice his accents ALL of the time...
he is currently working on his Indian one
-The army is cool
-Bon Jovi still rocks
-President Monson is a prophet of God
(that was more reiterated, not learned)
-Dallin can and will function on 3 of 4 hours of sleep per night for 5 days the week before a test
-There are some interesting people at the laundromat
-Having your wife as the ward choir directer gives you an automatic calling into the ward choir :)
-Even if I train for a half-marathon twice as much as Dal,
he will still beat me by a half hour
-Skydiving is awesome
-Las Vegas isn't that far
-Dallin could be entertained for weeks by only his Ipad
-End of Harry Potter=sad day
-22 credit hours + internship + 25 hour work week
 leaves little room for free time
-Being in med school also leaves little room for free time
-It is possible to watch an entire season of a TV show in one night...
namely 30 Rock, How I Met Your Mother, Prison Break, and The Big Bang Theory
-We have 2 awesome awesome awesome families
-Living with your husband is 80058ejfn395 times better
 than not living with your husband
-Dallin is a sweetheart

First year of marriage in pictures...








































And how did we celebrate?

By eating year old wedding cake,


Getting flowers(and a new digital camera!) from Dal,

and going the happiest place on earth!
