Quick Updates!!

We know we just posted, but we already have some updates. One is new, the other was just something we failed to mention. First, though most of you know (especially you on the Burnham side) that Stephanie and Nathan welcomed their sweet boy Brayden into their family on February 6th. Mother and son are both doing very well. He is a sweety. This picture of him is Julie's favorite. The second bit of news is very recent. Julie and Aaron had to make a quick change to their schedules and change their upcoming ultrasound date. It was going to be a week from today. However, Aaron might be in Wisconsin next Tuesday, so the ultrasound was post-poned until next Thursday. So, though we are all very excited to learn more about our new bundle of joy, it will have to wait two more days. We thought you all might like to know. You will all be hearing from us next week, we are sure, to find out the exciting news (assuming our little one isn't camera shy). We love you all and hope you have a great week!

Semester update!

Well, this semester has been moving rapidly. We are over half-way through and steadily heading towards graduation. Aaron's classes are going well. He's working hard to do his best. Julie is also plugging along. Here we've put on some pictures of her work in Floral Design. These are the first two arrangements she has made. The first was just a broad assignment, the second was a "gift basket". Since the day of her lab was Aaron and Julie's 1 1/2 year anniversary, she made it around that theme. Inside is their cake topper from their wedding, a teddy bear Aaron gave Julie while they were engaged, and some chocolates that they both enjoy. As many of you may have heard, Aaron has had much going on in the way of job searching. Currently, however, we are waiting. Aaron has one company in Ventura, California which is going to fly him out for a closer look. A company in Madison, Wisconsin has the same idea. Aaron also has a second interview with a company from here in Salt Lake, and a national company. So though we may not know where we are headed just yet, we are definitely making progress and will let you all know as soon as developments start popping up. In other news, Julie's brother Justin, his wife Brittny and their daughter Ashley are preparing to be sealed in the Newport Beach Temple this coming March 11th. Though we will most likely not be able to make the trip to the sealing, we are overjoyed with their news and excited for their sweet little family. Last, but definitely not least, Julie and Aaron are getting prepared to say hello to their greatest joy. On March 7th Julie and Aaron will be heading to the doctor's office for an ultrasound visit. They are excited to be able to bring home a videotape of this event, learn about the health and development of their little one, and hopefully find out if they will be expecting a little Aaron, or little Julie. Julie has just recently begun the need for maternity clothes, and is overjoyed at her little belly. They are eager to see signs of life, and begin feeling them as well. Julie and Aaron love tossing around names, though none have stuck quite yet. They are definitely open for suggestions, and are enjoying the fun process of preparing for this bundle of joy. We hope all is well with you. We are excited to see some of you around Conference time, and the rest, who are able, at graduation. We miss you very much and keep you in our prayers.
