Jobs vs. callings...
Just wanted to announce that today is a WONDERFUL day! It's 73 degrees (mmm) Drew got a promotion, (mmm hmmm!) and I got a JOB! (WAHOOO!!) We are so excited. We have been praying a lot and I know that is the reason we got double blessed. :) Drew originally applied for the concierge position at the hotel he is currently working at (Cedar Breaks Lodge and Spa.) The job would have been nice, and his manager told him he REALLY wanted to give him the job. However, his school schedule was too conflicting, and it was important to finish school, of course. He is done in December and we can't wait. So they offered him a position as the "Front Desk Supervisor" and gave him a three dollar raise! We were so surprised and happy! He has worked so hard, and I am proud of him. I was offered a position at the Family Support Center. As of right now I am not completely sure what my job will exactly consist of, but I know I will be caring for children who come from abusive and broken homes. The hours are part time, so I will be finishing my pre-req's this semester as well. WAHOO for jobs!! We are also loving our new married student ward. We have had the opportunity to get really involved right off because our ward was split right when we moved in and we lost A LOT of couples. We have only had 16 couples all summer, but we are gaining 18 more next week! Yesterday, we got called into the Bishop's office (dun dun dun!!) I was called to be a pianist, chorister (in sacrament) and the ward relief society specialist! I'm excited. Drew has a calling, but it hasn't been extended to him yet, so we'll keep you posted on that. Anyway, this is a novel and most of you have probably stopped reading! I was just too excited not to share! Thanks for all of your prayers and support through this hard summer! We're excited for this semester.....

I use Picasa to write on my pics. It is free photo software and is super easy to use! I love it! I use it to write on pictures and also to make collages - and you can use it for effects like bw, sepia, etc. You can download it for free at picasa.google.com. Can't wait to see the cute things you do with it!!
