Happy Pioneer Day!

Let's see...The last Mann family post was in February so in order to avoid being cut off from my family for my lamest of lame attempt at having a blog and informing loved ones about our life I decided it's time to post. I'll have to rewind a bit because Dave and I have hit some major milestones over the last 5 months. Dave graduated from Wake Forest School of Medicine and matched into Otolaryngology (ENT) at the University of Utah Hospital where he will do 1 year of General Surgery and then 4 years of ENT. After Dave's graduation I finished aBYU Independent Study course (barely) via an $18.00 overnight envelope with my final exam! Then we went to the Florida Keys with our dear friends Anya and Coray Preece for a week of scuba, fishing, eating out, and several trips to Walgreen's (for sudafed). After our trip to Paradise ended we went into crazy packing mode and made the long 3 day trek to Utah. Dave was amazing, he drove the 16ft. Penske with a trailer carrying our car the entire way. Since we've been here we bought a condo and are adjusting to Dave's crazy schedule and I'm looking for a job. We've been in Utah for 2 months now and are loving it!












Once we got to Utah, Dave, Kent and I got to try out the guys' new Glock's. Dave's Glock was his graduation gift from Medical School... ironically!
