So, it's been a while since I posted. That is partly because I usually like to post with pictures and we haven't taken a whole lot of pictures since Christmas. So, general update: Christmas was okay. It was hard because Wesley had to work a full shift on both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We spent Christmas Eve with my family and Christmas Day evening with his. We stayed at my parent's house so that when Wesley was at work all day, I could hang out with my family. It was cool at dinner with his family because one of his uncles was able to come who typically doesn't come to any family things.
In January, both Wesley and I got new jobs. Wesley got an internship at Novell, thanks to my dad letting him know about it, and having stellar references, (both my dad and his dad work at Novell :) ). He works in the teaming library and if you really want to know what he does you will have to ask him or my dad, because I don't fully understand it anyway. I got a job working as a para-professional at Orem Junior High School. Basically that means that I am a teacher's aide in the Special Education classrooms. I really enjoy it. There are moments that are hard, but overall I like working with the kids and I get to do a lot of one on one with them.
We are still living in the same house in Provo and will be here until April. Our whole bishopric is trying to figure out how to get us to stay here when the O'Dell's get back. We do have someone living upstairs right now and that is kind of hard, but we are working with it. Overall, life is pretty good. We have wonderful families and good friends and the gospel is true! Love ya!
