A Real Update on the Life and Times of Us
Well, the semester has started!
Kyle's taking Marketing Management, Humanities 202, Psych of Religion, and Multicultural America. This is his last semester as an undergrad student at BYU! Kyle will graduate at the end of April.
I'm taking Socialization across Childhood, Research Methods, Stats 221, Forming Marital Relationships, and Humanities 202 (that one's with Kyle!). I'm a little bit nervous about taking 15 credits, and working 20 hours a week, and planning a wedding, but hopefully I can pull through! Statistics is what I'm really nervous for... So cross your fingers that I will be able to understand, and pull off a decent grade.
Kyle is just finishing up his graduate school applications. The deadline for all of them is January 15th. The only thing we are worried about is that one professor who is supposed to be writing a letter of recommendation for Kyle hasn't gotten back to him if he has done that or not. So, we're hoping and praying that he DID do that. Or else, .... well, we don't want to think about the or else.
Kyle is still working at the MTC teaching Spanish. I'm at BYU Independent Study working as a "student advocate". Basically I work in customer service and answer phone calls from students. It's a pretty good job, not too high stress usually, there are lots of fun people to work with, and I can do homework (and blog) in my down time.
Wedding plans are slowly coming along. We have a meeting with our (hopeful) decorator next Wednesday, so that will be good to get that all set up. We're also going to dinner at my old young women leaders house on Sunday, so it will be good to see her, and to introduce her to Kyle.
I think that's about it on our updates for right now, we'll update later :)

Christmas!
Kyle and I had a great Christmas! It was our first one together, and we loved every minute of it. It was a pretty crazy few days, going around to my mom's, and Nathan's, and Gpa and Gma Hanson's, and then to the Bishop family party, but it was so fun! I met more of the family, and we discussed wedding plans, and played with babies :)
Other than that, not too many exciting things are going on right now. We've both been working basically full time over the break, and spending time together.
School starts back up for us on Monday. It's Kyle's last undergrad semester! He's finishing up grad school applications, and we'll hopefully know where we're headed sometime in February or March!

On Sunday it will be exactly 5 months until we get married, yes! :) We are so excited!
Just to bring you all up to speed on our wedding plans and decisions....
Date: May 6, 2010
Our appointment is at 10:20 am
Place: Salt Lake Temple
Reception: The Israelsen Residence in Alpine, UT
Colors: Navy blue, sage green and white
Wedding dress: Go here to see it
Kyle's already seen it, so it's not a big deal. I am absolutely in love with it! I want to wear it all the time, haha.
Photographer: Missy Eyre. She's been one of my really good friends since high school, and is a really talented photographer. Go here to see her work
http://mrussellstudios.blogspot.com/
and go here to see some of our engagements

The next things to get figured out are our decor for the reception, the food for the reception, and the flowers. And matching clothes for everyone. I'm mostly only worried about matching colors, not so much as having the exact same thing.
So there you go! A small update on the wedding plans of Britt and Kyle :)

GRE and Halloween!
Just as a quick update, Kyle took the GRE (on Halloween!) and did awesome! He was in the 90th percentile for Verbal, and 80th percentile for Quantitative! Now he's just getting a list of grad schools compliled, and he'll be applying to them shortly! Some of the schools he is looking at are Alliant International University in San Diego, University of Houston, a school in Florida (I don't remember off the top of my head) and a few others... So it will be exciting to see where we end up!
After he got out of the GRE we ate dinner, carved a pumpkin (it said Kyle heart Britt on it) and we watched Secret Window.
This has been a pretty chill week for the two of us, which is nice.
We're just trying to get more ideas together for our wedding :)
