We had a party opening all the gifts we received, and we're so grateful! Who knew it took so much stuff to stock a home?! (especially the kitchen!) Bri has braved the kitchen many evenings to attempt to learn how to use all the neat tools we've received, and she's only set the fire alarm off twice. (By the way, anyone know how to remove grated cheese stains from a tablecloth?)
Grant's mad musical skills have once again landed him in BYU's premier nine-man a cappella group, Vocal Point. We have this wonderful echo in the hallway entrance to our apartment, and he can often be heard vocal percussing his way into the house, as he returns from classes.
We also had a surprise visit from a bishopric member this last Sunday (sadly interrupting Bri's ritualistic morning bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios) just before church started. The ward decided to cash in on Grant's choir directing experience and also called Bri as the ward Miamaid adviser.
We had a small miracle occur in Bri receiving a job as a transliterator for Utah Valley University (only 15.4 minutes away from their home, unless Hannah is driving). She is very excited to start work tomorrow morning!
Marriage is even more fun than anticipated. Learning all about how to live with and serve each other is a neat and rewarding experience. We're really thankful for all the great advice we received from you! While we're having a blast here in Provo, we miss you and think about you often, so keep us updated. Our email is TheZabriskies@Gmail.com. We love to hear from you!!

This is an awesome blog. Thanks for taking the effort and documenting the expereince as you go. I think it would be cool for you both to do an entry on your Courtship and Engagement, while it is still fresh in your memories. Your children will cherish it as they reach the dating age.
Cute! Thanks for letting us know about your blog! It's a great way to keep in touch!
Wow, is that Grant? I can't tell without all his curly locks!! :) You two are adorable, and I'm thrilled you started a blog. I'll be checking back often!
You guys are so cute I can't even stand it! LOL-YOU set off the smoke alarm twice nana?! That makes me feel a little better about almost burning my apartment once last semester and twice so far this one...lol. I love you guys!
Hey guys,
that is really cute. i am super excited for you. The blog is way awesome and a great way to tell us stuff. i didn't know you set off the alarm twice bri. That is funny.Love you both alot and missing you
Well... now I've actually set it off a few more times. :/ Once was Grant's fault thought... seriously! I know you don't believe me but it's really just a snarky, mean, overly sensitive piece of useless machinery... that's all. Wow! I feel better already.
Bri, Congratulations on your new calling with the Mia Maids. Did you think you would be back in Young Womens again so soon?
Love your blog such a great way to keep in touch.
Hi Bri! I'm so glad I found your blog! What a wonderful way to keep up with each other. Glad to hear you're doing so well. Miss you hear in the NW.
