2017 was one for the books!

We survived 2017! I would say that is a feat in itself. Taz and I had an incredible year full of ups, downs, and TONS of growth. Since we didn’t get Christmas cards out, we thought we would give an update about our (personal) lives here during this year in review and share some pictures.

San Francisco Vacation

At the beginning of the year, we went on a trip to visit my Aunt Linda in San Francisco! We had a wonderful time exploring the city since it was Taz’s first time ever going to California. I love vacations so any excuse to get out of the cold the better. 😉

Brigham Young University

I graduated from Brigham Young University in April with a degree in Broadcast Journalism and a minor in Family Studies. I’m so happy to finally be done with school! Minutes before walking across the stage to accept my diploma, I was offered my first full-time position as a Social Media Coordinator and Public Relations Specialist for a company in American Fork. I’ve been there for nearly 8 months now and love the team I work with.

LDS Business College

After I graduated, Taz decided he wanted to finish his schooling and got accepted at LDS Business College where he just finished studying Social Media Management. We are both done and I couldn’t be happier to get rid of all our late nights of homework! This is one of my favorite things to see during our year in review.

First Anniversary

On May 6th, we celebrated our first anniversary! I’m glad I was able to convince Taz to marry me and I love building a life with him.

Summer Vacation

We didn’t get to go anywhere for our anniversary, but in August I took a week off work and we explored all the best places in Utah. Taz and I went swimming in a crater, camping by Deer Creek and spent the weekend in Salt Lake City!

Christmas Break

We were lucky enough to head out of state for the holidays to visit my grandparents in Arizona! I loved escaping the snow for a short time to spend time with my family. It was a much-needed break, but we are ready for the new year.

New Year + New Plans

2018 is right around the corner and we hope to accomplish a lot during the new year. Taz is starting a photography business. He is also looking for some more clients for his Social Media Marketing business. I just finished up a year of blogging and now I’m trying to rebrand during this upcoming year. I hope to focus on more lifestyle posts, cheap fashion finds and other quick beauty tips. Taz and I also just received the assignment at our church to teach Sunday School every other week. We had a wonderful time in 2017 starting to build our life together and we cannot wait to see what this new year brings. Thank you being along on the ride through this year in review and for your continuous support. We love you and hope you have a wonderful new year!

XOXO Kayla and Taz
