So to start, I went back to the factory full time and quit at the bakery. I just wasnt getting enough hours there anymore. That has been hard to adjust to again but it'll be nice to have a steady paycheck! Life as been dizzy lately. So many unexpected things have happened. My old best friends little brother died on December 28th. I grew up with this family and have known them forever. Clay was like a little brother to me. I love him so much and can't believe he's gone. Its been such a shock. He had a beautiful funeral though. It was very.. 'Clay' lol. Then on December 31st, my bishops wife Karleen passed away as well. This was very disheartening to me because she was such an inspiration to me. Karleen and Val were such a perfect example of what a husband and wife should be. Everytime we'd talk to him, he would ask Ty if he was treating me like a queen. Every time without fail. I know thats how he treated Karleen as well. I love Karleen and Clay so much and I know they're happier now and we'll see them again someday. But death is never an easy thing.
Other than that we have just been working. I really want to go to school and become a photographer or a wedding planner. I think both would be awesome careers. Tyson starts fire academy on the 24th! Can't wait! He will be going every Tuesday and Thursday from 5:30 to 10:00pm. then every other Saturday from 8:30 to 6:00pm. I think he will be graduating in June, then he'll be able to take an EMT class. All for free might I add! We're both super excited. The chief told all of the members of the academy that they pretty much have the position at the station they were assigned after they graduate. But they have to be volunteer for a certain amount of time before they can get on full time. I just hope its sooner rather than later!
Basically life is overall pretty good. :) Also, my sister had her baby on Christmas Eve! A beautiful baby boy, 5 pounds 11 ounces, 19 inches. His name is Donaven :)
