A Crazy Two Weeks...

As you can probably guess, we have had a crazy two weeks! There have been so many changes, I don't know where to start. The biggest change is that we moved to a new apartment. It is so much better than the one we were living in, and it happens to be cheaper, too. It is so big, that I don't have things to put in all of the cupboards, and I finally have a dishwasher! Hooray! We moved in last weekend, which was pretty stressful. I had to work at H&R Block for half of Saturday, so Jared and his family did a majority of the work. When we got to our new house, we realized that the previous tenants hadn't really cleaned, so there was about two years of dirt and grime everywhere. Luckily, Jared's family is incredible and my fabulous mother-in-law, Mary Ann, offered to clean and spent over seven hours cleaning the house from top to bottom, while the rest of us tried to move eveything over. We are so blessed to have family so close! I love our new house and I am so happy to live there. We have an AMAZING view of the Rexburg Temple out our front window, and I just feel so lucky to have found this great apartment.
Another change is that Jared quit his job at the call center and was offered a job with a family friend to do some contracting work. Jared is really excited to be working full time and not have to deal with crazy people on the phone anymore. He also is interviewing for a tutoring position for one of his professors. This would be great, because he will basically get paid to do his homework, so I really hope he gets it!
I also got another part-time job working for the school district doing the Junior High after school program. It is alot of fun and it is probably the best job I have ever had! I work with some of the coolest kids and I love going to work every day.
Overall, we are doing really well. I am so happy with all of the new changes that have been occuring and I can't wait to see what the spring will bring!
