Jackson Hole

Three of my sisters and I went to Jackson Hole, Wyoming the first weekend in June. It was FREEZING but, we had so much fun.
We went to Jenny Lake, did some shopping and saw the Bar J Wranglers.

We saw a couple of mama Moose and their babies. They disguised themselves so well amongst the brush. If you look right in the middle you can see her head and ears.

Jenny lake was gorgeous. We hiked around the edge, even though it was so cold. It was great to have such clean, mountain air to breathe.
We saw the Bar J Wranglers. You go to their ranch and have a chuckwagon dinner. The entertainment is great. They perform old cowboy music and some skits. It's hilarious. We laughed our guts out. A must see if going to Jackson.

I can't wait to go next year.

My little sister, Liseanne just took her family there last week. You can see it all on her blog (linked from mine) There is snow and all the kids are in winter coats! They had a great time as well.

I'm surprised you're not sick of the Bar J's yet. No, they really are a part of Jackson Hole that is a must see. You're pic's brought back fun memories. I'm glad you had some sister time!

Lightbulb Moment

Today, I realized something ---- I'm a busy girl. Work a 45+ hour a week job. I am a student and spend six hours sitting in class per week. I also work a second job, where I spend about 6 - 10 hours per week. Some days I am gone from my home for 14 hours. This however, is not the revelation. I hope we've all previously established that I'm not that dense. :) It doesn't matter how much homework I have to complete or how much homework I have to grade or if I'm home by 3:30 or if I don't get home until 8:30. Everything that I do, every place I have to be, every hour I have to spend away from home, I am glad and grateful to be there. I love being a teacher. I enjoy spending time working at RCW. I am grateful for the opportunity to go to school, which allows me to be a teacher now, and not later. I love spending any spare time I have with my family and friends, especially my nieces and nephews. (I am really great at pretending to be Bumblebee to three-year ...

Oh, What to Do in the Summertime....

Three weeks left. I have three weeks to finish writing my senior thesis and the end has officially come. Life has been full these past three months. Of course I "graduated." I had the whole ceremony and stuff. Once I finish my thesis then I'll be official. It was really an amazing day. Such a feeling of accomplishment it felt a little surreal in many ways. Trying to cram in almost four years of school into two years will make you a a little crazy but, I survived.....and I never thought I would really make it. All of my sisters came, which meant so much that they were there to support me. There have been so many family functions and things that I have missed over the past two years because I had class or had to do my home work. I'm a lucky girl to have such a great relationship with my siblings. Here we all are: I have been looking for jobs and stuff. There is nothing out there. The couple leads I did have did not go in my favor. It begs the question - why ...

Time.

What I don't have a lot of. Major life changes have taken place in the last several months. First and foremost - I am now teaching at Syracuse High. I was offered a job on the spot to teach special ed math the day after school had already started back in August. It all happened pretty fast that I didn't really think about it, I just accepted. I went to work on a Tuesday, let them know I had just accepted a teaching job and was teaching school on Friday. So...... I am now teaching special ed math, going to to school on Monday and Wednesday nights to get a special ed endorsement so I can legally TEACH special ed, working at the Willey on Tuesday and Thursday nights, doing homework, driving A LOT, and trying to make sure friends and family don't think I've fallen off the face of the earth. It's all good. Difficult and tiring but, good. So much for thinking my life would get less busy and easier once I graduated. I wanted to do other things. I thought this was the...
