7 Month Snapshot

The following is my attempt at documenting the last 7 or so months. I know it's long, but what can you do?
January - I finally graduated after 7 long years of juggling work and school. Tyler started another semester of school and we moved into our new apartment in Sandy.
February - School, work, sleep, repeat. That's all.
March - A much needed Spring Break in Escalante.

April - I was offered a teaching job at Summit Academy in Draper teaching 8th grade English. I guess I'm a real grown up now. Ty finished up the semester with straight A's. We hung his report card on the fridge.
May - I continued working at the Center, but did find the time to take a week off for a river trip on the San Juan. We also spent a few days in Moab after the river trip and did a little hiking/canyoneering. Ty bummed around while his sugar mama worked for rent money. Oh and he also planted his vegetable garden.


June - I worked A LOT during this month. It was stressful, and I almost had a nervous breakdown. But in the end, I survived. I quit the Center after 8 years. It was exciting and sad all at the same time. I will miss many things about CFC, but I'm super excited to venture into the education field. Tyler worked on his online stats class and also kept up on the housework.
July - On July 1st we headed to Maui for 10 days with my fam. It was amazing. When we got back we realized that we were true bums and decided to do a little playing. We hiked Mount Nebo, we went camping (see the previous post), and we hung out with family. It was delightful.
