School is starting again

Let the fun begin!

Looking back I never thought a year ago I would be where I am now.  A lot has happened in a year.  I got my first teaching job last year finally got to quit Farr's Ice Cream.  Then that's when the real fun began.  I was never prepared for the year that I had.  Even though it was very stressful at times it was worth it.  I learned so much and I was able to work with some amazing people.  I was able to work with one of my best friend's.  We were able to help each other out throughout the year.  Jennilyn Hancey is an amazing person she helped me throughout the year and helped me become a better person.
This is my classroom from last year.

Jenni helped me a lot with setting it up along with a lot of other people.


The other thing that is that my little brother Josh left to Oaxaca, Mexico for a two year LDS Mission.  I am so proud of him for everything that he has accomplished.  He is such an example to me.
This is from Christmas, he bought a hat because his head was cold lol :)

I met the love of my life during my first year of teaching.  He swept me off my feet and helped me to see that I can depend on someone else.  At times things have been hard and trying.  The one thing that we both have tried to do is to keep close to one another and trust in Heavenly Father no matter what happens.  Even though we were not able to get married in the temple that will always be our goal. We will one day be sealed for eternity in the Ogden temple.  I became a step mom at the same time.  It is one of the most rewarding and at times frustrating things.  I have learned so much from this little boy.
 Sorry I don't know how to switch the picture


I was able to get a teaching job down where we are living.  I am going to be teaching 2nd grade.  It is kind of intimidating to come into a school that I know nothing about.  I am very grateful to have people on my team that are willing to work with me and be patient. I know that my husband will always be supportive.  He has helped me with so much with getting ready.  Even if that meant cutting things out at night.


I am so grateful that Heavenly Father prepared me for everything that has happened in my life.  It has taught me a lot of patience.  I am still learning patience now.  I am grateful for my Heavenly Father and for the gospel that is in my life.  I would not be where I am now without my Heavenly Father's help.  I know that I can return to my Heavenly Father by keeping his commandments and becoming a better person.  I know that I'm not perfect, but I am very glad I can start over new every day.
