To my friend Katie!
So I think colder weather puts me in a blogger mood. I haven't blogged forever and lately I have this new sudden urge to post.
So I have many things that I can post about but I feel to share the news of my friend Katie.
So on Thursday morning I get a text at work from Katie telling me that she is engaged. I promptly texted back to let her know of my excitement for her. However, that was the extent of our texting. I was going to call her and find out the details but I wanted to give her some space and let her enjoy her new engagement. Then on Friday, the next day, I received texts from some other friends wanting to find out about people who I feel like we should invite to her bridal shower. In my head I was thinking, "Wow! they are crazy on top of things." Then Saturday comes and I find out that Katie is getting married on Nov 10th, 2011...Yep 2011! No stickin' wonder why my friends are so on top of things. It's because time is a wasting!!! Nov. 10th will give my friend exactly a two week engagement. Also this engagement has been in everyone's foresight but it came with a strike, even to them, and no prior planning has taken place
So I'm sure you're all wondering how does this effect me...well let me tell you?...haha:
1. It means that I have to find someone to take her calling in the single's ward...BOO (her calling is to basically babysit me and keep me sane, and she was great at it).
2. It means my group of single friends is getting smaller.
3. And it means that I'm completely happy, because I couldn't be happier for the both of them,
Katie, I love you to death!
BEST WISHES TO YOU KATIE AND ZAK!!!

I Got a Job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So I have been graduated for over a year now and I've been in the hopes of a full-time job for a while now...and that dream came TRUE on Monday (Sept. 12, 2011)!!!...Wahoo! It all happened because of great people who gave me great credentials, great supporters who have been pulling for me for a long time, and most of all because of a loving Heavenly Father who knows me better than I know myself. I am now a Math Resource teacher for 7th grade. Luckily I like Math and I'm excited about the journey ahead.
Lately I've been blessed with other jobs as well and it has just been too good to be true. I currently work at the USU at the extension in Brigham at night and my schedule couldn't be more ideal. Also, I've been an art teacher at an elementary school but it was only part-time. The greatest blessing of all has been working at the fruitstand, where I can always rely on a job. I've just been super blessed!!! I'm going to have to quit the art teaching job but fortunately I can keep my night job and then still go to the fruitstand whenever to just be with family and friends. Life is great and I just wanted to share my good news with everyone!
(P.S. I wrote this forever ago but my blog wouldn't let me post it, but today it finally worked-Yay!)

My incredible sister!
For those that don't know, the first example of writing what is important is my sister (it'll make sense when you watch it). Isn't she and my nieces BEAUTIFUL?

The Main Event
For almost two months at the Boys and Girl's Club I have been preparing for January 26th and it finally came! January 26th was the day of the big game/the crowning event...I have been doing a Basketball club for my "Fanz" (3rd to 5th graders) boys and a Dance/Cheerleading Club for my "Fanz" girls. I've been doing practices with the boys and I was teaching the girls cheers and a dance to do for the half-time entertainment. Things at the Club aren't always concrete so it's hard to keep consistency when you never know who's going to be at the club and who actually feels up to participating. Things are always a little crazy but it all turned out so well and I'm so grateful for all the help that I received. The kids had a blast and they all did a great job!!!
My Cheerleaders/Dancers-We took an hour before heading over to the church to get all dolled up. We also previously had made tutus out a tulle so that the girls had a costume. They did a great job! My dad even said, "The best part of the game was the cheerleaders and that's not usually the case."
My "Bullies"-The Bullies is what they chose for the team name. We made little team shirts that consisted of a Bull holding a ball with their name and number on the shirt along with the team name.
Let the Game begin!...Before the game started we announced the teams and the boys came running into the gym. They were a little shy but you could tell that they enjoyed it.
The Half-time entertainment-The girls did great. They danced to Justin Bieber's song "Baby" (which they always complained about but deep down I think that they secretly love the song). There's a part in the song where a guy raps for a little bit and during that part the girls just do free-style and dance however they want. That turned out to be my favorite part of the dance because they were just so cute. I was really amazed though at how well they did.
The final score...WE WON!!! There were many that believed that we wouldn't win because of the fact that we were playing against a team that has been playing together for a while. However, I had no doubt in my boys. Team Bullies is made up of boys who have a competitive spirit and they fought hard until the very end. I was so proud of them and winning just made the whole event that much better.
And I need to give a huge thanks to my family...
My Mom-my scorekeeper/announcer
My Dad-my ref
My sister Chelsea-my Cheerleader manager
My niece Emme-my fill-in announcer
...Thank you so much! You're amazing and I couldn't of pulled this off without you!
