I am one of you...

Quick story... I am now a true Salisbury, not just on official documents. So there I was at the end of Sacrament meeting filling out a tithing slip. I had just finished writing my full name, Suzanne Salisbury, and moved on to the address. Writing very quickly I made a small mistake. Instead of "Rexburg" I wrote "RexburY". I am now Suzi Salisbury from the town of Rexbury.

Well, a quick update. Tyrel and I are back to work and things are going well. We put in a couple of ten hour days that were very long and very hot, but we survived and are better for it. Now 8 hour days don't seem as tedious! Tyrel decided not to take the job offer previously mentioned. With it only being part time and gas prices so out of control it just wont cut it. We are hoping for a similar job offer closer to home though. We should find out about those this week since school will be starting on the 25th and most hiring will be done by then.

This weekend Tyrel planned a fun date to a Lake in Rigby. Complete with Catalina dutch oven chicken, picnic supplies, a football, and some perfect skipping rocks that he secret agented off of campus. It was a fun time, and there were tons of cute little kids playing in the water. I longed for little ones of my own...

On Sunday Brian and Kayla invited us over for dinner. Kayla is a great Cook...Brian is a lucky man! We are very blessed to have those two to hangout with every now and then. It's good to have other people to talk to. Next week we are going to have them over.

Ty and I continue to press through the sludge. At times it is a little stickier and deeper than other times but we pull each other through. I'm hoping to see a nice downhill in the future that could turn into somewhat of a fun slip and slide! Wouldn't that be neat?! Only time will tell if that desired land feature is in my future.

School is looking like it's going to be really great for me come Fall. I've just talked to a counselor and found out I only need 11 more credits of math to be endorsed to teach it AND I can petition for a scholarship for student teaching that I thought was out of reach because I would have too many credits. It is SO nice to get good news from school counselors every now and then. My graduation plans are going just as scheduled. Three more semesters and I'M DONE! Well, at least for now...

That's all I've got. I hope you all are doing well. We love you all!
