Blog!

Well I finally started a blog for our family.

I spend so much time stalking other people's blogs that I thought it was time that I returned the favor.

A little background about us:
-We were married on August 21st, 2009 so we have not been newly wed's by BYU standards for about a year. I am now officially an old married lady.
-We are both students at BYU. I am studying Elementary Education (which I adore!) and Darren is going to graduate in April with a degree in psychology. Then it's off to grad school...somewhere?
-I recently ran a half marathon. It was a huge accomplishment for me both physically and mentally. I'll have to post some pictures of that an elaborate on that in a later post.
-Darren has recently been accepted to present some research he has been a part of in a conference next year. We are very excited about that opportunity!
-The name of our blog is sort of an inside joke with us. Neither of us can ever give someone our names without them wanting to know how to spell them. Anymore we merely answer the question before it's asked "that's Hansen...with an en." Why is something so simple so darn hard to spell. I have always had a difficult first name to spell (Kaitlin). Do you know how many ways there are to spell that? Oh my lands... I had a very easy to spell maiden name so it used to be that I only had to spell one and not the other. What was I thinking when I married Darren? :)
