Chris was offered a job at Merit Medical the Friday before the 4th of July. He gave his two weeks notice to Bard where he had been interning for the past year, and started at Merit two weeks later.
We packed up and moved out of our apartment the end of July and moved in with my parents for a week and a half until our new apartment in West Jordan opened up.
The weekend before Chris started at Merit my older brother Nate got married. We lived out of suitcases and boxes for a few weeks.
It was a whirlwind! But we are very excited and grateful for this new opportunity.

All empty
Moving day from my parents house into our new apartment
Dinner the first night in our new place. Of course the first thing Chris unpacked and set up was his new TV.
Chris has been longing and pleading for a TV ever since we got married. I made a deal with him last year that when he got a real "grown-up" job, the first big purchase we would make would be a new TV.
The night Chris recieved his job offer, he was on the computer looking up which TV he wanted.
Enjoying his prize
