Here I am Again

Look at me! It hasn't even been a week yet!

I went "to town" this Saturday and spent the day with my parents while Lynn worked some overtime. This strikes me as funny because I haven't left Eagle Mountain in a week, yet I've gone to work every day! I LOVE MY COMMUTE! It is so awesome.

WHen I was little going "to town" meant going to downtown SLC to pay bills with my mom. I loved those days. They were special because I got to go while my brothers and sisters were in school. Then I started school and I got to go in the summer. I'm sure paying bills wasn't the funnest thing for my mom to do but as we went she reminenced how she used to go to town with her mom. Now I go to town with my kids. In my case, go to town means leaving Eagle Mountain. I'm glad I live here. It is a great place to be. Enough rambling!

If you've known me for over 5 years, you might recall that my neice, JaCee was killed in an automobile accident on State Road 73 after leaving my house. I miss her and often think of her but I think her mom said it best in her Baked Cookies Blog (link to the right). Also her favorite Aunt Shannon gave her a great tribute in Shumans in the News, (also to the right). I wish I could say I was her favorite Aunt but I cannot. I wonder if she have lived closer if I would have been. All I can say is that I love her very much and I know she lives with our Father in Heaven. If you go the blogs, get out the tissues, she has a way of touching everyone, even now.

Love My Job

Just a quick update. I hardly ever get on my home computer anymore! I'm on computers all day at school so I guess I'm reluctant to get on at home. Besides that my downstairs is messy and everytime I'm down here I feel like I should clean rather than Blog. Obviously I'm working on getting over it! :)

Anyway, we just got fabulous imacs at school. My only problem is learning to mangage 40 of them at one time! I love the kids and it is so fun being at my sons school. I have been really blessed!

Allison is getting bigger - 7 months old now. Eating "big" food as big as mashed sweet potatoes can be. She is the easiest baby - She is just always smiling! I'll post pictures soon (hopefully)
