We have had an awesome weekend! It started Friday when my brother Brayden came down from Bountiful to spend the night with us. When he got to our place we went to dinner at Panda Express then went to a dollar movie with Taylor and Krista Schulte! What a fun life we have! After the movie, we went home and watched "Ernest Goes to Camp." One of Brock's childhood movies. When we woke up on Saturday we drove up to Bountiful to spend the weekend with the families.
Brock here with my first ever blog entry, don't really know how to go about it. Saturday was quite an adventure though, Two days later I'm still sore from my semi-annual exercising. Once we got to bountiful we went straight over to the church to shoot some hoop. my father in law convinced me to finally try to learn to play with my left hand, I've been avoiding it for nearly 20 years. Then my buddy Rex came over, and man was it good to spend the evening with that boy. After a few hours with us he was talking about how he knew something bad was going to happen to him. About two hours later, at this wild trampoline world Rex messed his ankle up quite good. Man it was good to relive a little bit of the high school life with rex. So there's the blog entry, enjoy everyone.
On Sunday evening we did the yearly tradition of Chinese New Year at my grandma's house. It was a lot of fun to see my family after so long (Christmas!). Now we're doing family night with both families. It's so nice to have families that are so close. It makes splitting time much easier. We'll be heading back home to our cute little apartment.
It was a very fun weekend and it has made us grow much closer. Our life is amazing!

Curry Chicken
Yesterday morning I woke up at 4:45 thinking I had to be at work to do placements at 5:30 a.m.. It turns out that was for today. When I got there it was empty and all the lights were off. I turned right back around and went to bed! Luckily that gave me time to get ready for Paige to come over.
On Saturday I decided I really miss my friends growing up and asked one of them (Paige) if she would like to come over for dinner this week. She came over for curry chicken and a big round of lots of laughs (and taffy)! It is so much fun to catch up with people you don't see anymore. Paige and I have been friends since 2nd grade (that's 13 years). That's a long time in my mind! And I hope it lasts that much longer.
Brock has decided he's going to read the bible by the end of this year. So far, he's pretty far behind. By the end of the month he needs to read 60 chapters to catch up to where he's supposed to be. All I have to say to him is good luck! As a couple we're reading the Book of Mormon and we're right on track for that one!
Well Brock has made a yummy dinner from his mission tonight. It's the one meal he makes and I love seeing him actually cooking instead of cutting the veggies or chicken like he does for me when I cook. He's a pretty good little cook!
We love life and are doing great here at the Roses!

Dr. Rose
This semester, Brock has had the opportunity to job shadow a dentist once a week. He LOVES it! He comes home and immediately asks to look at my teeth and talks about how gross other people's mouths are. I love seeing him so excited. Last week was his first time and he told me he was more sure than ever that that is what he wants to do. He already knows the names of the faces of teeth, the numbers of the teeth, names of tools and where certain nerves are located in the mouth. It's all he talks about on Tuesdays and I love it! He has a lot of school ahead of him, but he can't wait to take on the challenge and one day be a dentist.
As for me and school, I hope to be going back fall semester. I'm going to try to get into an online school so that I can still work full time to pay for my schooling and all our other needs so that the Doctor can just focus on school. For now, Old Navy is treating me just fine:).
Life is grand!!
P.S. Does Oreo cereal sound like a good idea? It was take out the problem of how to dunk an Oreo! :) Maybe they already have it out; if they do, I'm missing out.

Livin' the Good Life
Not only is it snowing outside, but I get to spend the rest of the day with the one person I love more than anything! Coming up with a subject for a first post (when nothing entirely exciting is happening in your life) is kind of difficult. But, after much thought, it was decided to blog about how good my (our) life is. We live in a dinky little apartment that we have made our own. We have our awesome red couches, Brock's family's piano, our purple shower curtain, our huge bed with nice bedroom furniture but most importantly, in the center of our house is a picture of Christ. But, besides the worldly objects and the weather; we have each other.
Last night I had to work from 6 to 12:30. It had been a long night and when Brock came to pick me up it was easy to see he had had an even rougher night. He started talking about how his homework was more difficult than what he had planned and I immediately felt bad that I wasn't here for him. But, after being home for about a half hour his mood had shifted incredibly. It was just a little reminder to both of us about how much we truly mean to each other and how blessed we are to be together (and be together so often).
We have spent every consecutive day together (except three while I was at youth conference) for 19 months. And honestly, I couldn't see myself ever going another day without him by my side. I love my life!
