Adventures

Sunday we were having problems with our van. It didn't want to start after church, but it started later that evening with no problems. Then again it didn't want to start that even when I was visiting my parents. So I've been driving the little car. Till today.......Aaron tinkered with it and through out a few ideas of what may be wrong with it, then he had to jet off to work. So I took matters in my own hands. I pushed it out of the garage down into the driveway, then drove the little car in front kitty corner and jumped the van. To some I'm sure this is nothing but it was a first for me. In the end all I needed was a new battery, so now my van is good to go! This was my adventure for the week, because you other mothers now the routine clean, clean, wash, dry, fold, mow, feed and did I mention.......CLEAN.=)
Off to bigger and better things tomorrow! Who knows maybe I'll top my last adventure and knock your sock off. You never know!

Weekend!

We look so forward to our weekends. Just to be able to be together as a family. That time is so precious. We try to get everything done during the week so we free to play! This weekend is the tri-athalon so we want to get out of town. We hope to make it out to our Great Grandparents with our Grandparents, go for a bike ride in the mountains, and take the kids to the Circus. That's all Saturday.
Then rest on Sunday seeing as though its the Sabbath, or have you ever notices how busy we are on Sunday. We are trying to put out fires all through church if not with our own kids, with others. I am in the primary those children are so special , I learn so much from them. I love my calling it is a blessing to work with the children. Aaron is doing last minute things to get the scouts all ready to head off to scout camp. Wow what a headache Scouts can be with little to no parent help. It makes me thankful that Aaron sets an example and plays an important roll in what our boys are doing. I am so thankful to have a husband who is so willing to put the needs and desires of his family first.

Graduation!!

We have finally made it! Aaron, I am so proud of you. Aaron graduated from the University of Idaho Dec. 8th 2007 with a Bachelors in education. This was a major accomplishment with 3 kids, a mortgage, a stay home wife and juggling between work and attending school 3 1/2 years full time. Our dreams had come true when we were offered a position at the school he had been interning at for the last year. He started 2 days after he graduated teaching math. He was so happy, this is his dream profession. A major change from construction. He was coming home on cloud 9 every day.
We were just floating through the ride of life until now. I think we are stuck in some rapids and we can't find our way out. Our employment ended there at the end of the school year. We are looking for a teaching position now.
This area is hard to find a teaching position in. We are working hard trying to have faith and be patience, but those are two of my many weaknesses. It is hard to give support and be a strength when your struggling. But I now that the Lord will bless us and guide us. Although waiting on his time schedule is a hard thing to do. So till then we have to daily count our many blessings. Our lives are so blessed. We're not alone. We just need to find a different way out of these rapids, knowing the only way to do that is with the Lords help.
