4 wheeling

In June we went with a few friends up American Fork Canyon and went 4 wheeling in Jared's jeep. We had a great time, Maren still talks about the bumpy rocks and Matt (he came with us). She loved it!

Recent pictures of Maren

Recent pictures of Maren- she is growning up so fast. She talks a mile a minute and tells us all kinds of things. She is a joy to have in our house- most of the time! She can be a little bit of  a princess when she does not get her way. We sure love her!

Two weeks left of my summer break then back to work. We went to panguitch lake the beginning of July but haven't done much since. I retook the praxis test- passed reading and writing & missed the math by one point!! One point!! That's like 1/2 a question. Which means I have to take it again! It stinks!! But, it's gotta be done so I can move on in school.

This school year flew by! I can't believe it's over already. I think this year was much better because of the teacher I worked with. I will be with her again next year, she is wonderful! Working with great people makes all the difference. It will be interesting to see what happens when I graduate, that is still a few years away, it will be hard to leave the school I am at, I love it there!

Life just seems busy. I think it's that way with going to school, working & raising a very active & curious toddler! I just finished my foundations of education class , math 213. One math class to go! Prayers that I survive it would be appreciated! Spring break has much needed this week. Maren will be two in a few short weeks! Where has the time gone? We love that little girl!

Missy

Our sweet dog Missy passed away during the night. We knew she was feeling well because she was not eating like she normally does. Jared had planned to get up in the morning and take her to the vet. She was a good dog, hardly ever barked and was so loving. She would have been 10 in September. We will sure miss her!

I am finished with 2 of my math classes. The second algebra class I got a B in it. I'm good with that. Math is super hard for me, it is the reason I put off going back to school for so long. I still have 2 math classes to go, those are teaching for elementary math, I am hoping that since I already teach elememetary math I can pass those classes with no problem. I am actually looking forward to taking mythology next, give me a paper to write over math any day!!

Still alive, just super busy with work & school. Not sure if anyone actually reads my blog anyway!
