HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEWART !!!!!!

Today is my baby boy's 22nd birthday......

He didn't have a good one. Had to work, got stuck in the snow,got soaking wet trying to dig his truck out of the snow, had to go to SL twice, got home late.

I took him out to dinner to chear him up. He wanted something fast and thur a drive thru. So Del Taco here we came. (At least he was full.)

He is now with his friends...... (hope he has a better night than he did today.)

I think he is realizing that when you get to a certain age, birthdays are just like any other day.

I love you Stew, and Happy Birthday!!!!

Ok, Ok, Let Me Write Something!!!

My girls are so excited about my blog and have been reading Jeannine's that I haven't been able to write anything down.

So here Goes!!!

It has been great fun to read about everyone and keep in touch with your cute families and your lives.

Well, in case that you didn't know that I have started a new job. Yes, I have left Scrapbook Trends, after 4 years.

I'm an enrollment counsler for Grand Canyon University. I had to fly to Phoenix, Arizona for 10 days and train. While I was there I learned a ton of stuff about colleges and had to study and pass a test and memorize a 25 page presentation.

I have never studied so hard in my life. I did have some good help with some young guys that fly out with me. We studied together every night. ( I know they did that for my benefit). We also practiced giving our presentation on each other. We had to hit 68 key words. Along with the flow of the other words for the presentation.

After taking the test and having a sence of relief that I did know the answers, I got ready for my presentation.

I didn't know that it was a power point and that I had to study the slides along with the words. Needless to say, I didn't do so hot on it. I got all mixed up on the slides. So they gave me pitty, and told me that I could do it again when I got back to Orem.

I did pass the test and did study with the slides when I got home. When I did give my presentation again. I did it with flying colors. In fact they asked if I would like to be a presenter for the company. I quitely declined for now. ( I need to more about what I'm saying so that I can answer any questions.)

I have worked for a couple of weeks and I'm really enjoying it. I have enrolled two students.

While I was in Az. Dad and Chris did come and rescue me from the dorm life and dorm food for a weekend.

That saved me from going insane! They showed me around Mesa and we went to some really good barbaque restaurant in Gilbert.

I went to church with them and saw Dorothy Porter/Hanks. She is very happy and seems to be adjusting just fine.

I would like to go again to visist and not have so much pressure on me.

That is all for my first post!!!!
Hope you enjoy!!!!
