So, here in Kirksville (as mentioned in my previous post) the "townies" are those who have lived in KV for a long time. Most of them were raised here and never left, but many came for school and never left. Our ward thus-far has been made up of townies. Great people, don't get me wrong, but they're not in the same demographic as Evan and I. It's been long-awaited, but students and their young families are slowly starting to trickle into town. We've had the pleasure of meeting Dan and Kassidy from Salt Lake City, Ut. They both attended the U. They just got married last month. We've been able to spend time with them on multiple occasions and I just found out that Kassidy was in Granite Senior Youth (symphony orchestra for our school district back home) when she was in high school. She's the same age as my sister, Julie, and Kassidy and I have many mutual friends thanks to our music endeavors in high school. It's been good getting to know new people and to have new ways to pass the time.
Ev and I toured the ATSU library yesterday. It's nice and quiet.We also saw the OMM (Osteopathic Muscle Manipulation) lab. It's HUGE. I'm most excited for Ev to start learning OMM so he can align my back and make me feel better. I'm really thrilled that he's going to be a DO. Just a few more weeks and school starts! I can't wait.
Our third anniversary is coming up. Ev has to plan it this year and I don't think he's started yet. Maybe this post will give him a little bit of motivation. I can't believe it's been 3 years. It's gone so fast and so much has happened. I feel really blessed to have such a great husband! Love you Ev
I'm glad that you guys are making friends! That's one of the hardest parts, is finding people who you know you could be friends with. :) I'm sure it'll get better as time goes on. :) And happy 3rd anniversary!
ReplyDelete(Just in case you needed some ideas of what to do in the St. Louis area.. The zoo, art museum, and historical museum in St. Louis are free admission. And they're all right by each other. I would definitely check those places out. :) And the City Museum downtown is WAY fun! It's not free admission, but it's not overly pricey either. If you do go, make sure to wear shoes that you can climb around in. Although it is a museum, you can climb around the exhibits. It's a blast! Also, there's a museum under the Arch that is free. That's also a fun one. :) Anyway, just a few ideas of things to do.) :)
