wedding. trips. new jobs. life.

WARNING:
This post will be long, out of order, and pic overload... EnjOy!

Brielle's wedding came and went. It was a major success. It was certainly fun planning and preparing all the details. She looked great and they are happy as ever - congrats! :)

Ain't she pretty!

Best photo assistants around ;)

In our reception get up.
The morning after the wedding we headed off to San Fran with the Burninghams. First car ride ever with all 7 of us for 12 hrs. It was just great! It was so fun to be with everybody! The vacation was awesome, tiring and our legs were mega sore from all the walking but it was well worth it. We saw all the great must see's and had so much fun! Thanks MOM & DAD B.
** Side note: We got home at like 2 AM. (EXHAUSTED) But we came home to a mowed lawn, kitchen spotless, family room organized and vacuumed, bathroom spike and span, and best of all our room was even cleaned perfectly with 6 loads of nicely folded clothes, towels, sheets, etc. I really have the best parents. I know what our house looked like due to spending the previous week doing wedding stuff, and I KNOW the time they must have infested to clean it. We are very grateful!

The morning after we rushed up to Incom ID for Brielle and Matt's 2nd reception. It was also a hit! the parentals rented out a bed and breakfast so it was fun to just hang and hot tub after all the festivities, as well as getting to know Matt's family better.

After we got back home from Incom we put away our clothes only to repack for St. George! The family left Monday and we will be joining them today and I cant wait!

Oh and a new job. Yup that's for me.
I applied for a full-time position up at STAR. After the looong interview I felt pretty discouraged! I really wanted the job especially being full time cuz I've been begging for that the last 4 years. I'm 1.5 hrs away from benefits so this job would be great. Anyways I thought for sure I didn't get it. To my surprise they called me back and I got it!! I'm super excited about it.
I will definitely miss my kids at Clearfield high, and working with higher functioning kids will be a major adjustment but I'm grateful for the opportunity and just cant wait! Wish me luck first day is Monday!
