Have no fear...

We're still here! I am probably the worst blogger on the planet! Just a quick update though, Jordon is graduating with a Bachelor's Degree in Public Relations this April. We're excited, and he's had straight A's for the past 5 semesters. I'm really proud of him, and excited for our next adventure, which will definitely involve getting out of the Utah bubble. As one of our friends so wisely noted, "Mormons are like manure. If you spread them around, things grow. If you put them all in one place, all you have is a big, smelly pile of poop." Thank you, David Wells!:) Charming, I know, but I absolutely agree.
Jordon has decided to go on to grad school to study interactive media design. In other words, he'll be producing video games, and with his creativity and passion for it, I'm sure he'll be successful and love his work. He's applied to USC in California, and we'll hear back this month! It would be ideal for a lot of reasons. We'd love to be closer to Jordon's family, and USC is extremely prestigious when it comes to Jordon's field of study.
Otherwise, not much is new! Olivia turned one in November, when we also celebrated or second wedding anniversary. As Jordon likes to say, we celebrated one happy year together. Two years total, one of them happy. Haha! Both years have been great, and I'm so grateful to be married to such a good man. He's a great dad too, and Olivia is always excited for him to come home from work and school. She is a smart, affectionate, high-maintenance little girl and we're grateful to have her!
Another update on Liv, we took her to an allergist a while back and discovered that part of her eczema was caused by food allergies. She's allergic to happiness. Not really, but she is allergic to anything with milk, eggs, soy, and she is severely allergic to peanuts. Joy! So if any of you have good dairy-free recipes, please pass them along!
That's it for now! Pictures to come, when our internet connection isn't so slow! Much love,
Noel and Jordon
