From Cherstin:
My grandpa passed away a couple weeks ago and this past monday was his funeral. It was a sad time, but I am glad Jordan and I were able to go. I was able to see many cousins that I hadn't seen in a long time. Also to services were beautiful. We really celebrated Grandpa's life. He was a great man. Always smiling and telling us he loved us. I am so grateful that Jordan was able to meet my Grandpa. I will miss my Grandpa terrible, but it is good to know that I will see him again someday. My Grandpa served in the navy and therefore had a military salute at his burial. It was incredible. He was a faithful member of the church all of his life, and never wavered. He is a role model to me. I love him, and will miss him.

A crazy weekend.
Wow. so this last week has been interesting. We told everyone that we are going to parents! Cherstin is due September 8th. We are very excited. Cherstin has been feeling great. She just is always hungry!
On a sad note, this past week, Cherstin's grandfather passed away. Gayle Morgan died Friday the 12th around 5:30pm. It has been a hard weekend because of this. Cherstin's mother was in Rexburg this week, and left Friday on a shuttle to go down to Salt Lake, where he was. She didn't get there in time, but is now there with the rest of her family. Thoughts of my grandpa have been with me all weekend. I will sure miss him. He was a great man, a great role model and a great grandfather.
Valentine's weekend was fun. We went to a Broadway review show, a dance and a group romantic dinner. It has been nice to have monday off too, so we could get a lot of things done.
Sorry its a random, short post. Its been a crazy weekend.

Jared and Che visit!
This past weekend we were blessed to have Jordan's brother Jared, and his wife Che, come visit us!
They arrived Friday, in which we played Ticket to Ride and visited for a while. Saturday was the big day! Jared, Jordan, and Bobby went to play basketball with some people Cherstin's brother Curtis knows. They came back to a big breakfast, then off we went to the movie Avatar in 3D! It was incredible! On the way back from Idaho Falls we stopped by Big Judd's. Bobby completed the Big Judd Challenge by himself! (It is a 1lbs hamburger). We finished off our meals with ice cream. Delicious! later that night we went to a show on campus. The Peking Acrobats! These were Chinese performers who were amazing! They did a particular awesome act were a guy stacked chairs over 30 feet in the air. He then preceded to do acrobats on top of a leaning chair, which was at the top of the stacked chairs. It was incredible. Just when we thought they were doing great, and it couldn't get any better... It did! with them doing even more impossible acts! We continued to be in awe and talk about the different things the Chinese Acrobats did, even through Sunday. Sunday we went to church with Cherstin's brother, Curtis, at his family ward, because our Sacrament isn't until 3pm. We then had lunch with Curtis and Anna's family. Jared and Che left around 3pm and we were so sad to have them leave!
Cherstin's parents Bob and Gay came up to Curtis' later on Sunday. It was good to catch up and talk with them. Cherstin's dad had to leave Monday morning, for work. He was just dropping Cherstin's mom off to help Anna with the new baby. Sadly, Jordan got very sick Sunday evening, with a stomach flu of some sort. He is still hurting very badly and is sore all over. Please keep him in your prayers as he has hard classes that he is afraid of missing.
We love you all

January 2010 in a nutshell
Well, school has started and is already a month over! We have been on a crazy ride with it! It is Cherstin's last semester and she is taking some fun classes as well as her nursing classes. She finally fit in guitar, Tap dance, and introduction to Foods class, into her schedule and has been enjoying it. Jordan has many hard classes and is found studying a lot for important test and projects. He is doing great! We have been able to have several couple dates with other couples in our ward. They have been fun, to get to know other couples and have our weekends booked! We had some people over for Bobby's birthday.
A couple weeks ago, Cherstin's sister Anna had her baby girl Leila. There were some complications and so Cherstin and Jordan helped to watch Arden and Maile for a couple days. We have been able to go to a Barbershop festival on campus where we saw an international quartet perform. They were hilarious and just incredible!
Last weekend Jordan's friend, Travis, came up for the weekend with his girlfriend, Stephanie. It was fun to have them and Ryan and Courteney Wall up for an evening of full.
Well, we have been super busy and yet have been enjoying our life together! We are going on 6 months already! We are still madly in love and look at each new day with excitement for new adventures!

New Years
We traveled back to Rexburg for New years, with Cherstin's parents. We spent New Years with Cherstin's brother Curtis and Anna! Jordan's parents them came up to drop his brother, Bobby, off at school. It was fun to spend a little time with both sides of the family!
Christmas Break
Yes, we are late at this... but we thought we would post just a bit...
We went to Cherstin's folk's home for Christmas, in Longmont, CO. We went caroling, made lots of treats, went to a couple movies, played with the nieces and nephews, played a lot of games, and had an over all blast! We were also able to go Skiing! It was so perfect and so fun!
