Snow Covered....Everywhere

Rexburg has defiantly kept up to its reputation as a very windy and snow covered place. This year Rexburg has gotten more snow then we both think we have seen in our years here. The cities snow removal crews had a hard time getting rid of the snow, so huge piles and mounds have formed throughout town. At one point they had pushed all the snow into the median, and it piled so high you could not see the cars on the other side (making it hard to U-turn). There were icicles coming off the buildings that were 4-5 feet long. The snow was shoveled on some sidewalks, creating tunnels and canals. However, through the storms and fridge snow, there is a glimpse of hope. The weather has gotten above zero and has sky rocketed to the low 30’s. With this new forecast of a ‘summer’s heat’ there comes the glimpse of a true Idahoan walking around in flip flops and shorts. Bathing suits will soon be seen as the snow melts and floods our street and sidewalks with the feet of melted snow.

And the glorious place we call home is none other but….REXBURG, IDAHO!!

Life Update

Well there is not much of an update other then, we are safe and alive. We have gone through many tests (MRA, MRI, EEG, ect) and no results have been found as to the cause of Breanne’s seizures. She is slowly feeling better, getting back her energy, going to class, ect. She still gets dizzy and lightheaded if she does too much (which she is using to her advantage) and she still gets pretty bad migraines, but overall she is doing better. Ben is also getting back to class; the two week absence has left him with a lot of homework and stress. He is working hard to catch back up, while balancing the new responsibilities he has with Brea.
Other then our medical mystery we have been okay. We were able to attend the Rexburg Temple Dedication, broadcasted live on campus, which was a very special opportunity. We are so happy and grateful that we have a temple so close to us and that we have this new opportunity to attend more regularly. It has been a great blessing and beacon of faith for us both.
