Count Your Many Blessings...

So I know I haven't written in my blog a while....oops. But life has been INSANE lately, but it has been great. After I was done with my long-term sub job, I got a job as an aide at the same elementary school. That lasted about a day, then I got a REAL teaching job! It turns out that the teacher I was subbing for, didn't want to come back after all. So, they offered me the job! It was an answer to our prayers, and we couldn't be more grateful. The only thing that we are worried about, is a job for next school year. But we are still keeping our fingers crossed. I have applied to other school districts for a teaching job for next year (at the teaching fair), but really we are hoping that I'll have the job that I have now. I love the school and the teachers I work with, so it would be a wonderful job to keep!

So we are moving to Utah for the summer for Mark's internship at the U, and we are so excited to get out of Rexburg, even if it is just for a couple of months. Since I got the teaching job, I wasn't planning on getting a job at all when we were in Utah. Then something just fell into our hands. Someone got a hold of me because they are looking for a nanny this summer. They are only looking for someone from June-August...well guess what?! That's when we are going to be there! Perfect? Yes. :) We couldn't be more grateful and happy for all of the blessings that we have received since we have been married. The biggest one being that we have been getting paid $11 to live in this apartment that we are living in right now, instead of having to pay anything. Things are going great, and we couldn't be happier. Thank you friends and family, for being such a great help and support to us during our first year of marriage. :)
