In the late summer, just before the weddin' we also went to Red Butte Gardens! We actually got there 1/2 an hour prior to closing... because we were unaware they closed early that day. So we ran around part of the garden and snapped a couple shots.








Park Date

A few weeks before the wedding, Jared took me on a fun date- the Park Date. It was a super fun and inexpensive date idea. We jumped on his motorcycle and rode from park to park around the city, playing on each playground like we were kids again. Here are some highlights!








It's Time!

It's time for a change- a JOB change!



As many of you know I have worked for a BIG 4 accounting firm called KPMG, LLP for the last 3 1/2 years. Over these past few years I have definitely learned a ton, grown intellectually and professionally, and most of all made many friendships with the great people who work in the Salt Lake City office. However, along with working for a BIG 4 professional accounting firm also comes a lot of dedication, hard work, sleepless nights, fatigue, and an overwhelming feeling that more often than not, you have absolutely NO life! Many of my good friends, parents, grand-parents and others have wondered when this splendid day would come, that I would choose a more balanced/healthy life-style, and now it has come!



I have recently accepted a position at Savage Services Company. I will be working in the accounting department (obviously) performing many different responsibilities including: JV accounting, international accounting, and financial reporting. I am so excited! This job opportunity came to me through a "head-hunter/recruiter" who came across my information and happened to give me a call. So I decided to take a leap of faith, interview, research, and eventually make the decision to accept the position. I am excited for the new adventures this opportunity brings- especially the potential for a better and healthier work/life balance.

Hooray!
