So Tess needed a car to get the job and a job to get the car. She got both this week! Actually she got two jobs. She will teach 1st grade at Canyon View Elementary (across the street from Brighton High School) starting in August. In the meantime, she got a job at a daycare/preschool for the VA at the University of Utah. For the time being she is living at home which is fun for us!
In the spring it seems like we celebrate a birthday every weekend or so! Madeleine and Alan always celebrate theirs together…the tradition is halusky dinner (his favorite) and poppyseed cake (her favorite.)
Tess finished up her student teaching (the latest round was teaching at the BYU preschool on campus). While she was trying to apply and interview for teaching positions next fall, she somehow managed to clean and check out of her apartment and then actually graduate!
Guess who’s got hundreds of darling miniature daffodils in her front yard?!
You are right….me 🙂
See what you can do when you work out everyday!
So now Elliot gets to be ordained an Elder and vote this November! I don’t think there is anything else very exciting that he can do until he turns 21 right? Oh, that’s right…go on a mission!
He is still BYU’s #1 Biggest Fan, so of course he got more BYU paraphernalia for his birthday. Good thing he got accepted to the school 🙂
It’s a good thing we all get older together! I actually like birthdays…they give me an opportunity to be grateful for so many friends and family. I feel so loved!
A day for sweethearts…mine offered to make us a special dinner of Steak Diane (my all time favorite steak). It’s actually not the steak I like…it’s the brandy and mushrooms! After dinner we watched The Lake House which turns out to be (yes, a sappy chick flick) an actual Valentine’s Day movie. Who knew?
