Sam and Jayme

Life in P-town

2008-09-04T21:05:00.000-07:00

Sam and I decided that we never want to live in Logan again. We moved down to Provo so that I can go to BYU. That's pretty much the only reason...Sam loves rock climbing, so he's happy here. What else can I say?

AN UPDATE ON OUR LIFE

2008-06-18T19:03:00.000-07:00

I decided blogs are too hard to keep up with. I only made one to be cool like all my other married friends. I tend to get a little bored with projects after awhile. I'm a bad, lazy person. So what's happened since November? We went on a cruise in January that was amazing, we visited Chicago, and then we packed up and moved to Cleveland in April. Sam and I are both working full-time for the summer, and we'll be going back to school in the fall. The following pics are just a little eye candy from our Western Carribbean cruise. Happy, everyone?

Mardi Gras Land!

2007-11-28T16:55:00.000-08:00

Sam and I went to New Orleans the first week of November for a Planet Beach convention. It was such a fun city! Seafood will never taste the same to me again...I love that Cajun style! We had to check out the Mardi Gras Madness mall, as well as all the voodoo gift shops.

Rock Climbing

2007-09-15T12:08:00.000-07:00

Me and Sam have found a new hobby; we went rock climbing together a couple weeks ago, and we loved it! For Sam's b-day, I bought him a membership to the Rock Haus, an indoor rock climbing gym. Anyone who lives in Logan or comes to visit has to try it out with us (Fridays are bring-a-friend-for-free day)! I was scared to death the first couple of times, but got used to the heights pretty quickly. Sam has been before, and he was a natural.

Sam turns 24!

2007-09-15T11:44:00.000-07:00

Sam had a birthday yesterday! He has been telling people he's 24 for about six months though, so I keep thinking he's 25. Using his words from yesterday, at least when he dies, everyone will be surprised to find out he's really a year younger than they thought.

Labor Day with the Lunds

2007-09-12T19:41:00.000-07:00

They say when you marry a person, you marry their family. Nobody ever told me that you marry their friends as well. I inherited a whole new collection of friends after marrying Sam, ranging from big ol' Utah State football players to mission buddies. Here's the best part: Sam has a habit of not answering his cell phone, so mine is constantly ringing...do I care that rarely anyone wants to talk to me, they're just wondering what Sam is up to? To be honest, I haven't decided yet.

Where am I going with all of this? Well, Sam had some friends that he thought I'd like to meet, Skyler and Kim Lund. We met for the first time at Iggy's, and I remember eating some of the best pizza I've ever had and being engaged in conversation about the Ohio Cleveland Mission. One thing led to another, and we decided to hang out again...and again. The Lunds live in Salt Lake City and we are in Logan, so it's not always easy to get together, but we find time to spend together regardless. I guess when time is scarce, it's all the more precious.

The Lunds are really cool people, and I'm so glad that Sam brought them into my life. Where would Sam and I be without them, you ask? Probably living it up on the coast of some tropical island, but we know better than to leave the Lunds for too long. Sam and Sky can talk about music longer than Kim and I can talk about makeup, our husband's weird habits, books, gossip, and pretty much anything else.

Our most recent outing was a trip to Celebration Centre in Logan. Boy, we had fun! I got sunburned for the first time all summer. Sky and Kim, if you're reading this, then you'll probably be mad that I'm about to tell everyone we beat you in miniature golf!

Seattle

2007-09-04T11:26:00.000-07:00

Sam and I have been able to live in several different cities the past two years, the most recent being Seattle, WA. Seattle is an amazing city, and we were able to experience a little taste of everything, from shopping downtown to hiking in the beautiful national parks. We might even say we became Mariners' fans in the few short months that we lived there; going to the baseball games were one of our favorite things to do (note the above picture). Pike's Market Place was also a favorite...we love seafood! We have moved back to Logan, UT for the school year, but we definitely will include Seattle in our places to revisit!

About Us

2007-09-04T11:04:00.000-07:00

Sam and I met in the summer of 2005 in Chicago, IL. Chicago has become a special place for us; it is where we dated, got engaged, and did I mention that the shopping is unbelievable? And yes, I do have some of the coolest relatives in the world that happen to live in the Chicagoland area. I suppose here is where I thank my Aunt Diane and Uncle Dennis for being so good looking!

After getting engaged in Chicago, we moved back West and got married in the Logan, UT LDS temple on October 21, 2005. Sam currently goes to school at Utah State University and I am the manager of Planet Beach Tanning Spa. I recently have become a personal trainer, which is the perfect job for me! For the past two summers, we have packed up and moved to different cities (so far Dallas and Seattle are on the list). We love to travel, so this has been fun for us to live in different parts of the country together. Some of our favorite vacation spots are La Jolla, CA and Vancouver, Canada (okay, so maybe those are our only vacation spots as of yet but they're still our favorite!).

So, life is good and we love each other! We both have amazing families and great friends, what more could we ask for?
