Provo Dental Rotation

Chris set up a Summer dental rotation at Moutainland Health Center where he shadowed Dr. Booth during his undergrad at BYU. Instead of staying here at the clinic in Arizona, Chris set this one up in Provo and got it approved. We were able to stay in Salt Lake for almost a whole month and spend such great quality time with family and friends. 

Chris and I also celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary on May 30th. We left Hadley with Chris' parents, went to dinner, and then had a couples massage at Sanctuary Spa. It was a great anniversary and the time has flown by. Chris and I have known each other for 12 years now. 

Chris was able to do a lot of great things with his family while he was in Salt Lake since he had Fridays off. He went fishing with his Grandpa, Dad, and Kallen; golfed with his dad, Kallen, Jordan Stewart, and of course the Poor Man's Golf Tournament (Scot, Kurtis, and JR); and we even went mini golfing with Kallen, Jordan, and John Ericson and just kept Hadley in the Ergobaby carrier. She was awesome and loved every second. When Chris was golfing at Nibley with his family, Kallen got a hole-in-one! It was a pretty exciting moment for everyone. 

Over Memorial Day weekend, we drove out to Elko, Nevada to meet the Tophams. We all didn't want to drive the entire way, so we met in the middle for just one night. We swam for a bit at the hotel, had Basque food (which was awesome!), played games, went to church, and had a great time together. The hotel was so nice and it made the trip that much better. We can't wait to see the Tophams again in September when we go to Disneyland. 

It rained a lot while we were up in Utah, and Chris and I loved every second of it! Everyone else hated it. One night, the rain gutter above my parents kitchen window was clogged and caused the window to leak. Before cleaning out the gutter, Chris created a contraption that would catch all the water and put it in the sink. I was pretty impressed

Our trip was filled with a lot of days to the zoo, hanging out with cousins, playing guitar with Grandpa, and enjoying Sunday dinners with family. Although it was so much fun, our last day was a very hard one. Poor little Stuart was very sick and was in kidney failure when they took him in to the vet. He was in so much pain and was always confused where he was. The vet told Chris' family that it would be best to put him down that day. So, we said our tearful goodbyes and looked to each other for support when Stuart slipped away. It was very sad, but it was peaceful at the same time knowing that he was out of pain and free of his suffering. 

We finally made it home to Arizona and it is good to be back. It is already painfully hot, but hopefully the monsoon season will come sooner than later. 

We do what we need to do to make Hadley happy in the car.

Hadley loved Stuart and she followed him everywhere! We are so happy she got to spend some time with him before he passed away a few days later.
