BIGGEST NEW DEVELOPMENT

As some of you have already heard, I have transfered schools for my internship. I was wroking at Provo High School which I loved, but it was not a paid internship. While attending a Counseling Conference I met the school counselor at Karl G. Maeser and was very impressed. We later got in contact and after being invited to apply for a paid internship, I was offered the position.

Karl G. Maeser is an amazing opportunity. I have loved my time there so far! The students, faculty, parents, board and staff are all incredible people to associate with! The School is currently located in Lindon, Utah. The BIG Christmas present this years for the school was the announcement of the new building that will be completed by next fall. The school currently has grades 9-12 but next year will be enrolling 7-12. I am so excited to be apart of such an amazing program. School is based on a Socratic learning system which is an amazing way for the students to learn and develop.

I know that God is truly putting opprtunities and people in my path to bless my life- Karl Maeser being one of those tender mercies. It's an exciting time for me in the development of my career and my training as a School Counselor.

"Fall" N 2 the CRAZE

I'm sure that most of you are most curious about Dylan. Dylan and I met at a conference for School Counselors. He recently moved here to Utah and currently is working in Utah County. I laugh everytime I think back to his first smooth introductory lines at that conference! If you would like to hear the story I would be more than happy to share it with you but to be honest- he tells it the best!

We've been dating for a couple months now and are enjoying the life of School Counseling and adventure! Since we have met we have traveled to Idaho, Vegas, San Diego, and Jackson Hole. He likes to be on the move and see new things as I do- so that makes it fun. If you are having a hard time finding me at home and you know I am not at work then I am usually with Dylan either on a road trip, at borders, hangin' with fam, or chillin' at his place watchin' a movie. It's been fun livin' the life and sharing similar interests, hobbies and talents.

Thats us in a nut shell :)

Long Time Comin'

Well, Since my trip to Yellowstone, my life has really gotten busy. When I got back I started my internship at Provo High School, was still working at the MTC, still doubled up on classes, and I started dating someone. Needless to say my fall flew by. I'm now getting ready for the new year a little older now, more tired, but so excited for what 2010 has in store!

Yellowstone Fever

A bunch of us all got together and decided to take a last minute road trip through Yellowstone park. We camped, we hiked, we went to a meladrama, big judds, swam in hot springs, and saw all the beautiful sights and animals.

Again we had a diverse group of people with us which made it all the more interesting. We took two different cars and went and saw the sights in Idaho Falls and Rexburg. I am so blessed to have such great friends!

Crash and Burn

My friends and I formed a wheel gang that encompassed every different kind of wheel. We had a beach crusier, a mo-ped, a razer-scooter, a long board, a mountian bike etc. It was a great way to spend the 24th of July. Down near 800 out in front of Brick Oven I got on Spencers Mo-ped and took off full speed on it, not knowing how to slow down or stop. By the time I had figured it out, I crashed and slid across the road. Groups of people gawked as they all said that I hit my head pretty hard. All I knew was that I had road all over me...in my toes, my arms and my legs. I couldn't believe that I turned out to be okay! Go figure that would happen to me eh?

Fiesta Days

For the 24th of July a bunch of us got together and went to the Spanish Fork rodeo. It was a lot of fun. For many, it was there first time ever going to a rodeo. It was fun to experience it all together.

Melanie came all the way down from CLinton to go to the rodeo. It was so great to see her. I rarely get to spend time with her. Its fun spending time with with my trainer.

Spencer and Renee, Sean and his friend, Melanie, Ashley, Nicki, Kimber, Mari, Mary and Gabe, Seth, Jon and me.

We sat all the way up at the top of the stands. We coiuld see everything up there. It was a lot of fun.

St George Love

St. George was a lot of fun. We pulled another "drive-all-night-to-ge-there" trips so that we could make it on time to her temple wedding. It was so nice to be in St, George but it was even niver to see my little greenie in love and getting married. What a big step. I am so happy for her. Her wedding was a lot of fun and I am so glad that I could be there for it.
