The exciting news is this: I got something GREAT in the mail yesterday! I've been working since August to renew my teaching endorsement so that I can sub and so that I'm ready to apply for a teaching position in case I ever needed to. I had to jump through a lot of hoops to get this and I appreciate Michael's support in giving me the time I needed to take my classes and everything. Michael is a great husband. So thats our great news!
Not much is new around here. Dad got us a year family swim pass so I went swimming at 6am last MWF but Michael had to work early all those days this week, so I didn't get to go swimming this week. But we had step T and TH and had a pretty good turn out so I'm glad about that. I have lots of holiday kcals to work off if you know what I mean. :) We're excited to use our family pass with this kids on M and TH nights. I'm having a great time kitchenaid that Michael got me for Christmas.
Michael and I went to the burial for Elise Johnson on Monday. It always amazes me how well people hold up and how the gospel strengthens us through times like these. Multiple people there mentioned our Heavenly Father's hand in all this and it was evident that they had great faith in him and his will.
My brother Morgan and his wife Fallon had their beautiful baby girl Audrey on Dec. 18. That makes for a LOT of December birthdays! She is beautiful and I love her. We're hoping to go see her in Feb for her baby blessing.
