FANTASTIC WEEK

This week has been totally awesome!!  I started the week by giving my notice to quit my current job.  I decided to become an Intervention Specialist (a tutor at an Elementary School for math/reading) at Ogden School District and then substitute on the side.  I was super nervous about doing this, but I knew that I wanted to work in Education so I took a giant leap of faith with the full support of my fantastic husband.  I soon got a call to go in and interview at Weber High School in the Weber School District for a part time teaching job.  I interviewed and waited patiently for the results.......I GOT THE JOB!!!  I am the newest Government teacher at Weber High School!!! Yay!!  I start school on Tuesday and I can't wait!

That is really all of the news but here are some more pics and stories on the previous months:

This is our fireplace/living room under construction.....


This is our fireplace/living room now.....


It is so gorgeous!  We love it!!

A few months into our remodel, Michelle (Jeremy's Sister), gave us a loaf of pre buttered and garlic french bread.  To be honest, we forgot about it until a week after we had recieved it.  I decided to cook it for dinner and didn't unwrap it, I just threw it on the grill.  Needless to say, this is how it turned out.....


It was a giant loaf of mold!!  It smelled so rancid!  Disgusting :(

This was our first flower of the year and at our house.....


Anyways, closing note....I know that sometimes life can be hard and depressing.  The last several months have been that way since I started my job search.  Jeremy was always the stalwart faithful who knew everything would be ok.  I didn't have this faith and trust until recently.  I made the choice to be ok with anything that was thrown at us.  I made an effort to thank my Heavenly Father every single day for the opportunities I was presented with and the blessings we already had.  I quit stressing out and being nervous about the future and accepted that everything would work out when it should and it has.  Our life has been tremendously blessed and we are so grateful for everything we have been given.  Life rocks!!

Love ya!
