Some Big Changes!

I am so sorry it has taken me so long to do another post but our lives have been crazy! In April Joe finally graduated from BYU with his bacholer's degree. He could not find a full time position at that time and so he countinued working part time at the bank and then he worked part time for my parents at their carpet store for about a month. Then one night Joe and I started talking about our finances and with me quiting the newpaper route soon we had to look at cutting some costs. So we started looking at apartments closer to his work to save on time and gas. We found a great apartment about 20 min from his work and decided that is going to be the best solution for us. And so we moved our family in 10 days, yes I said 10 days. Those were the most long and craziest days we have ever had. I was still working and packing up the house while still trying to take care of my family. While all of this was going on Joe had a job interview for a really good position with in the bank. The first of June we moved, I was so tired and moody that Joe said the day after we moved to quit my job now and we could figure out the rest. So that is what I did, I quit the paper route the first of June. The day after I quit my job Joe received a phone call telling him that he was hired for the position he interviewed for and they were giving him a better salary than they had told him in the interview. We were so excited and now I could focus on just being a wife and mother, Joe is taking care of the rest. Our new ward is awesome and we have been welcomed into it. We have truly been blessed. We love and miss all of you!

So glad things all worked out for you guys!!! And what a great place you have now. And I'm glad you're closer - except now we're moving farther away :-( We are buying a house in Clearfield - just north of Layton.
I'm sooo glad we got together a few weeks ago. So fun to catch up!
