Viva Las Vegas...Round 2.

The Aaron and Jeanette Radmall family will be moving back to the sparkly city of Las Vegas in a few days. It seems like just yesterday we moved to St. George. Maybe because it practically was yesterday.

Aaron, who is the most wonderful dentist (and dare I say most attractive dentist) was offered a great job opportunity in Las Vegas. And after lots of careful thought, prayer and fasting, we felt it would be the best thing for our family to accept the job offer. It's a little confusing since we just came from there, but I know that we are always well taken care of and when we are in tune with what Heavenly Father wants for us, well, you can't really go wrong. I'm pretty sad about having to leave my new students. I really loved teaching at the studio her in St. George. I'm also a little bummed about having to turn down my offer to be a teacher at Dixie State. But even though I am a bit disappointed, I know every thing happens for a reason.

So many postive and incredible things happened to Aaron and I when we lived in Las Vegas the first time. I got to be a professional ballerina, taught awesome kids ballet and I found the love of my life. Aaron got to attenend and graduate from dental school, had lots of bachelor adventures and finally settled down with the love of his life. So I'm optomistic amazing things are going to happen to us in Las Vegas round two.

As a reward for moving we induldged ourselves with a new leather sectional. We are loving the new addition to the family!

Dress Up Time!

My new boss Heather rocks. She invited all of her teachers to get together for a photo shoot. Our theme was the 1930's/40's. This is just one picture of many. So just a little sneak peak. I'm so excited to post more pictures. Our wonderful photographer was Emily Clark. Her company is called Wink Fotos if you want to look her up. Her work is really beautiful.


If you want to see the picture closer...just click on the photo. It should pop up in a bigger version.

I'm just to the right of center on the car, holding the very cool and very vintage umbrella. You can't see my entire outfit. It was so pretty. Hopefully when we get some more pictures from that day there will be a few that show off the entire look.



I'm sitting in front off to the left in this one. I almost broke that poor suitcase...hopefully it was just the fact that the suitcase was very old, and not that I've had to many girl scout cookies lately. If you want to see a closer view, just click on the picture.

Aaron and I have been lucky enough to spend the last week in paradise! Karl and Cheryl were sweet enough to treat us to a Hawaiian vacation celebrating Aaron becoming Dr. Rad. The four of us have been having plently of exotic adventures including snorkeling, visiting the Polynesian Culture Center, spending time at the picture perfect beaches, eating lots of shaved ice, playing with cute turtle families and even swimming with sharks!

Our First Wedding Anniversary

Our wedding a year ago...



I can't believe a year ago today Aaron and I were married in the Salt Lake Temple. Our wedding was the best day of our lives. This year has been the best year of our lives and we feel so blessed to have each other as husband and wife. I'm so thankful for Aaron and what an amazing husband he has been to me. He is so loving and supportive. He always tells me how much he loves me and how pretty he thinks I am. Aaron works so hard for our little family. He really is the smartest person and hardest worker I have ever met. He is really such a great dentist and I'm grateful he was able to develop his talents. One of my favorite things (among many) about our marriage is we laugh so much and we are silly together every day. We laugh so hard we often cry or are rolling on the floor. I really believe laughter is good for the soul and a marriage. I feel so blessed to be in such a happy, laughter filled marriage. Aaron is the first thing I am thankful for in my prayers. Okay now I'm done being sappy. Happy 1st Anniversary Aaron Radmall, I'm excited for an infinity more of them:)

We always love an excuse to give eachother gifts...I gave Aaron a video game and a new hat!



Aaron spoiled me with a new scrapbook, a scrapbook of our wedding, hair products and a huge book on my favorite subject The Universe...

I thought Subways were only in New York City...

The first subway I ever road took me to Lincoln City to dance at the School of American Ballet in New York City. My next subway experience was quite different. We hiked "The Subway" in Zion's National Park and there was no Lincoln City at the end of the tunnel, just the amazing accomplishment of hiking an eight hour and pretty intense trail with some very sore quad and glute muscles on the side. Being with my perfect husband and enjoying nature at it's most beautiful while hiking, rock climbing, repelling, sliding down natural water slides and swimming made my original subway experience (smells like a sewer, homeless men looking at me weird, being squished like a sardine) seem a little sub par.

4th of July Mammoth Style

The Radmall's have quickly gone from big city folk to the hippie/redneck type. Not to long ago I didn't believe in leaving the house without three inch heels, a Dior bag and BCBG dress...now look at me...I shoot guns, don't shower for three days, sleep in a tent and am more concerned with bear proofing the campsite than applying MAC eyeshadow.

We spent the 4th of July holiday weekend with my family and friends in the beautiful Mammoth Lakes, California. Aaron and I had so much fun spending time with my family. We were lucky enough to hike some amazing hikes, play at the lakes, bear hunt (we didn't spot any, though Mammoth is notorious for it's big bear population), illegally play in the natural hot spring, see an earthquake fault line, and attend a fireman's fair where we got to play with the fire hoses and try on fire fighting uniforms.

What the Rad Fam has been up to...

There are SO many beautiful places to explore in St. George. Aaron and I have been taking advantage of the beautiful scenery by doing plenty of hikes. We have been exploring Snow Canyon as of latley, which happens to literally be up the street from our house!

Mrs. Jeanette's Last Day at Summerlin Dance Academy

I had the amazing opportunity to teach ballet at Summerlin Dance Academy the last three years. My last day before we moved to St. George was so sad and so perfect all at the same time. I have truly enjoyed watching my beautiful students grow as dancers and young ladies. Every student truly has a special place in my heart and will truly be missed. They all have improved and grown into lovely ballerina's and I am so proud to say that I was lucky enough to be their ballet teacher. I admire so much about so many of them, their talent, work ethic, determination, dedication. Thanks for so many great memories Summerlin Dance Academy! XO

Aaron's Graduation!!!

Congrats to my amazing husband for completing dental school. He makes me, our family and our friends so proud to know him. I admire his work ethic, his academic achievements and his ability to stick needles in people's mouths and pull out teeth with out throwing up. He is the smartest person and hardest worker I have ever known. He is a great role model to our younger siblings. I know they, as well as myself look up to him. Aaron will be an incredible dentist (I can personally attest to this...he filled a cavity for me and I couldn't even feel the injection) , I can't wait to see what the future has is store for him.

We are so thankful for all of the support and love we recieved from our family and friends this weekend. It was so exciting to see our loved ones and to celebrate Aaron and his achievements.

Aaron's Last Day of Dental School

Aaron is officially a doctor! As a couple we are now officially known as Dr. and Mrs. Radmall! We are both really enjoying the sound of that. I not only speak for myself but for all of our family and friends when I express how proud I am of Aaron for all his hard work and accomplishments. Here are some great pictures of Aaron and some faculty members and staff from the UNLV School of Dental Medicine!
