Jon Schmidt

Last weekend was such a good one. David and I had so much fun! The highlight of the weekend was that we were able to go to the Jon Schmidt concert at the Sandy Amphitheater Friday night! It was incredible and we had a lot of fun. The music was great and the amphitheater was outside which was really cool.
Saturday wasn't as much fun for poor David, he studied for the GMAT all morning and then in the afternoon he drove up to campus and took his first practice test, which he did really well on! I am so proud of my brilliant husband. However, he will only be completely satisfied if he scores high enough to get enough scholarship money to pay for all of his schooling. Crazy boy. I love him. I had a good time writing emails and going shopping. Sunday was even better because church was wonderful and then we just got to come home, hang some picture frames and read our books! (I finished the Scarlet Pimpernel, which I LOVED!!!)

Here are some pictures from our Friday night Adventures!



David and I doubled with Heather and her date, Greg. Greg was already down in Salt Lake, so we drove to Sandy with Heather and met Greg there. It was so much fun to be able to chat and catch up with Heather. She is such a sweet girl and I am SO grateful for her!


This is David and I at the Concert. We had great seats and we loved being able to lay in the grass and listen to the amazing music coming from the talented musician on stage! (PS. I nicknamed us as being "The Glasses Gang" because Davids eyes have really been bothering him and he has stuck in glasses for the last week or so. I was putting in my contacts the other morning and they were not cooperating, so in a temper tantrum fit for a three year old. I threw them ceremoniously in the trash and decided to join David in wearing glasses!)



This is our view of the stage. There were lots of people there, but we could see everything perfectly!


Waiting for the show to start. David looked so handsome in his new shirt that his sister Amy and I talked him into buying last weekend. Thank you Amy for backing me up on how good he looked in it! (As well as backing me up on the plaid shorts thing! Love them!)



This was during the performance of "Love Story Meets Viva La Vida". It was INCREDIBLE. Also, it was the FIRST time they had ever performed it live! It really was amazing. I was loving my life.

The incredible sunset we got to watch during the performance. Beautiful.


David and I after the show. It was so much fun!


We stopped at a 7-11 on the way home... which inspired these pictures:

David was such a good sport and posed with the giant birthday card. I love this boy.



David tried to extract revenge by stealing the camera and making me pose. I'm trying to look cool while I slurp my 7-11 Slurpee.


I don't have any pictures from the rest of the weekend. (Which is probably for the best seeing how I have already overloaded this post with pictures.) But it was just as good as this night. Our apartment is really coming together! Most of our picture frames are up and we have the kitchen all organized and all of our gifts from the wedding put away. I love our apartment, and I most especially love being married to my sweet love, David!

Oh How I wish i could have been there! I love Jon Schmidt and I really LOVE that song!! Lucky people! Sounds like you two are enjoying being married! It is wonderful!

- David, are you studying with the Kaplan GMAT study prep? If so, is there a CD in your book that has like 20 quizzes? Let me know.

Good luck on the test, studying does pay off ;)

We need to invite you two over for dinner sometime soon. Is anyday good for you?

Katie! We are loving being married! I am studying using some books that my friend bought. She did buy the Kaplan book and I know it has quizzes but I am not sure how many, I can ask if you want. Are you thinking of buying study materials? P.S. We would love to come over to dinner! We are free most evenings, and it would be really fun.
