In the beginning.....

Quick recap of the last 4 years (since Nicole and I were married when life REALLY began):

-Nicole and I were married on July 16, 2004 in the Salt Lake Temple. The best day of my life and it better be the best day of Nicole's life! It really was wonderful and everything we had hoped for. Pictures will be posted soon I hope.

-We were blessed with a baby girl on November 8, 2005 (see picture above). Her name is Annie Irene Wells. She looks alot like her dad but has her mother's attitude (Nicole is going to kill me for saying that!). She does look like her mother in many ways and is beautiful because of it. She is almost 3 now and is bossing us around. Potty training is fun right now and overall she is a wonderful girl.

-After we were married, Nicole finished school at BYU-Idaho (I had already graduated) and then we moved to Pocatello where I started at Idaho State University for an MBA. Nicole also finished her student teaching that semester and earned her Bachellors Degree in Art and Spanish Education. She has many talents and I am very proud of her.

-Our time in Pocatello was wonderful. We made many new friends and we miss them. I worked and went to school part-time. Nicole spent time at home with Annie (who was born 9 months after we moved to Pocatello) and in the last school year we were there, she worked part-time as an educational assistant. She was a wonderful addition to the school and received many compliments from the principal and other staff. I finally finished my MBA degee this last May and am very glad to be done with school. I enjoyed the classes but don't miss the homework.

-Upon graduation, I accepted a job here in Twin Falls, Idaho with Cooper Norman. Cooper Norman is an accounting firm with offices in Boise, Twin Falls, and Idaho Falls. They are well respected in the community and I am proud to work for them. I am also happy to be receiving real money! I am a staff accountant and am preparing for the CPA exam. I hope to follow in the illustrious (spelling) steps of my best friend Tommy and pass on the first try. We plan on being in Twin Falls for some time. We enjoy the town and look forward to making new friends here. Nicole is a stay at home mom and is enjoying it. Annie wears her down during the day and then gets me in the evening.

So that is a quick recap of the last 4 years. We are doing wonderful and enjoying life, well a least most of the time!
