Trip to Utah

We spent about 10 days in Utah during July. Sam's brother, Sterling, left on his mission. He will be serving in Guadalajara, Mexico. He will be a great missionary and we're so excited for him! We also got to attend one cousin's reception and one cousin's wedding. We went four-wheeling and wave-running at Bear Lake. It was a great trip, and we loved seeing so much of our family. Miss them already! P.S. I can't figure out how to flip these pictures...so deal with it.

Sometimes I Thank God...

You know that country song "Unanswered Prayers"? Well, today I am really thankful for answered prayers. I have had a situation at school that I have been dealing with for some time. It would be inappropriate to go into much detail, but suffice it to say that I attended a big meeting today. Not everything was resolved exactly as I had hoped, but I was able to be calm and communicate well. The people that matter came away with a good impression of me, the way I did my job, and my honesty. I am so grateful that I can pray for help and receive it when I need it. Please excuse my ramblings, but I can't help but feel relieved as I get ready to start the next school year - tomorrow. Yikes. In other news, it has been an eventful couple of weeks. Stay tuned for posts and pictures.
