Things Lost and Things Found

So I figured I needed to update everyone on my life, it's been awhile my last actual update, where I'm not giving you photos. Didn't feel right to talk about me and my life when I'm posting some else's photos.

Really a lot has happened since school ended, and, really, even before school ended a lot of stuff happened. Dave and I started dating, I finished up my year as a middle school teacher, I found a new job, summer started - where do I start to tell you about my life?

Since those of you that know me basically know Dave and my story I suppose I will start with my new job. I knew I needed to move on from St. Marguerite's, not that it wasn't a great school, and not that I don't love every single person there, but I needed to do what was best for me, and that meant moving on. I applied for jobs within the Tooele County School District, went to a couple interviews, and then was offered the position of 5th grade teacher at Overlake Elementary. This is an exciting new chapter for me, one that, while I'm nervous, I think will be excellent for me in the long run. I'm excited to work with other teachers and not always have to be the pioneer for what I do each year.

Summer has started and while there's a lot of stuff that I need to do for next year, I still have a ton of free time on my hands :) it's probably not the best of things lol. Recently we found out that we will not be attending World Youth Day in Brazil, this caused a lot of cancellations on our part, most specifically a trip to Los Angeles. My mom and I were still in a travel mood and decided we needed a trip up to my grandparents house and Afton, Wyoming. And that brings us to yesterday. We went on a four wheeling trip that was definitely an adventure full of things lost and things found.

A Short List of Lost and Found
1. Lost: the small town bussel
    Found: the beauty of the mountains

2. Lost: a food source
    Found: wild onions that we swear are a mix between garlic and onion

3. Lost: my phone
    Found: my phone (not where I thought I'd lost it)

4. Lost: wild creatures
    Found: silly cows

5. Lost: my balance
    Found: I can't keep it anyway, tipped the four wheeler - uninjured luckily

6. Lost: my appetite
    Found: bag worms....enough said

7. Lost: our minds
    Found: a power box that's been shot, really?

Needless to say there was a lot of things we really enjoyed doing yesterday, definitely missed this town. Here's a few more pics to add to those already :) keep checking back for more wedding photos!
