Amy Shepherd Lamjav

After graduating from high school I attended SUU and didn't know what I wanted to graduate in. So I took some time off and just worked. I then went on a mission to the New York Utica mission. My parents moved to Kaysville, Utah so after my mission I lived there for awhile. I ended up going to Weber State University and while living in kaysville I met my wonderful husband and we were married Jan 2003. My husband is from Mongolia and I have enjoyed all the cultural differences. We then moved to Monterey, California where Munich got his masters degree in international policy studies and weapons of mass destruction. We were there for 3 wonderful years. While there we had Milan, our pride and joy. We are currently living in Arlington, Virgina and love it so much. It has been so fun living close to the Nations Capital and seeing all the wonderful history. When we first moved to Arlington 2 years ago my husband was working for the Foreign Service teaching Mongolian. He now works for the State Department as a contract interpreter. He also started his own translation/interpretation company last year. This year my husband had the opportunity to attend lunch at Vice President Dick Cheney's home as a Mongolian interpreter. And recently he went to the white house and did interpretation for President Bush in the oval office. We are really happy and life has been wonderful. We are also expecting baby number 2 a girl the first week in August.
