Back to Utah we go!

I can't believe I haven't posted about this yet, but a week or so ago we got some amazing news - Dan got an internship with a FEDERAL JUDGE in Salt Lake City! For those of you who don't know (which will most likely be anyone that hasn't gone to law school or hasn't been married to someone going to law school) getting to intern with a Federal Judge is really prestigious! The Judge he will be working with was the Judge that covered the Elizabeth Smart trial, so Dan is going to learn A LOT from him I'm sure. Everything is working out so perfectly! Dan's last day of Finals this summer will be May 13th and so we will head to Utah shortly after that - my brother Landon gets released from him mission on May 13th!!! My parents are going to pick him up so he wont get home until the Thursday after that which will be perfect so we can be there at the airport to welcome him home! Then we will get so spend fun vacation time with family and friends until after Memorial Day and that is when Dan will start full time with the Judge! His internship will be 10 weeks which will be perfect and end in just enough time for us to get back here and get ready for his 2nd year of law school to start! We are also lucky enough (this isn't 100% final yet) to have a family live in our house during the summer while we are in Utah - it will help them out since they will need to stay somewhere fully furnished and just for the summer, and it will make us feel better knowing our house isn't just sitting for 3 months! We feel VERY blessed right now that all of this is happening and we know the Lord has his hands in all of it! The biggest reason I am excited to be in Utah this summer is because my brother Landon has never met Jaxon - Jaxon was born a month after he left on his mission, so getting to spend an entire summer with him and him getting to play with Jaxon and get to know him, means the WORLD to me! YEAH!!!!!
