Our Lives As We Know It

Here is our little family! Sterling and Amber were married on May 16, 2003 in the Bountiful Temple. We moved to Anchorage, AK in September 2008. We were very blessed to welcome Dakota Valdemar Rasmussen into our family March 24, 2010.

Sterling graduated and is now a Certified Lisenced Massage Therapist and is working at Advance Physical Therapy. Amber works as a Medical Billing Specialist at Anchorage Community Mental Health Services. She is fortunate enough to be able to do most of her work at home. Dakota is a full time active mini-Sterling. He already has a very funny personallity and is only 4 months old.

Alaska is so beautiful in the summer. This year we have had a lot of rain. The sun never seems to set, at least not while we are still awake. It is so green and full of life. We have so much wildlife that literally lives in our backyard. We had a bear back there last week and moose out there this last winter.

We live in a wonderful ward and have started to make some amazing friends. We miss everyone in Utah, but we are glad we moved up here. I think it was the kick in the pants we needed to get Sterling through school and start a family of our own.

We will try to keep everyone up-to-date on our family and life through our blog. We are open to any suggestions on how to incorporate new and fun gadgets on our blog.

It's About Time

I guess it is about time to start our own blog. Thanks for trying to get us to do this a while ago Mom. It just takes a little more motivating to get me to do this sort of thing. My motivation today, Dakota. He is proving to us that he is not getting any younger or smaller. It will be good for me to do something that is not work related everytime I get on this computer thing. Now for you, it is time to just relax and read on to learn more about the Rasmussen family!
