Updates....

Hello blogging world again....it has been awhile. So where to start, we have had some major changes in our lives over the past year all have been great in their own way and hard too. So I finished my first full year of teaching my awesome 4th graders who I absolutely adored even though sometimes it was really hard, I still love them and miss them. Before the school year ended Zac got a job offer we could not refuse so we decided we would move to Utah. We quickly cleaned our house packed everything up and moved everything to Utah all while I am still teaching school May was a whirlwind of a month. Once school was out for the school year Zac and I took a much needed vacation to Mexico and it was awesome. It rained everyday but it was beautiful and we enjoyed the beach even when it was raining.
Oh I almost forgot in May I also started my masters degree, it is a fast pase program that is only 10 months long.
After returning from Mexico I said goodbye to Zac as he had to move to Utah right away and I had to stay to start my third summer of teaching golf lessons. Which I absolutely loved!! I was in the sun everyday and playing the sport I have fallen in love with again. Our summer flew by, we had a family reunion in Nebraska, and to end a great summer we headed to the moutains for a girls weekend.
I then quickly returned to Boise after our weekend and I had to get the car packed up and finish moving myself to Utah. I had one day before I had to start at my new school, crazy cray week let me tell you! So then I got to meet my awesome little 3rd graders, they are amazing and they surprise me everyday with how smart they are. Truly amazing!
So then came the end of August and our family grew by one. Zac's sister and her husband were blessed by adoption and we became an aunt and uncle! We are absolutely in LOVE with our niece. We just wish they lived closer so we could love on her more! While little miss Zoƫ was being born we took a quick trip to Seattle with my family to cheer on the Broncos. Unfortunately we lost but that is okay we still love them anyways. We had a blast, we ate great food, and I even got to go to my first PAX convention. If you do not know what it is you should look it up.....I did not fit in haha.
Our fall was filled with lots of football games, Zac was able to coach with his dad and brother this fall for the Summit Bears. Even though they did not win very much it was still fun to go to the games to watch my man do his thing! I even made a few trips home to watch my Broncos!!
Our holidays were filled with family, friends, lots of food, and awesome gifts.
Now to the fun stuff! For Christmas we gave Zac's dad tickets to the College World Series in June. We are so excited to go! It has always been a dream of Scott's to go so we are excited to make it come true! Then my gift to Zac for Christmas is a trip to Vancouver, Canada. We are so excited to go explore the beautiful city and hopefully take lots of pictures! So come July our cameras and passports will be ready!
In other exciting news I finish my masters on March 1st! I can see the light and I am so excited! I have learned so much and have even used a lot of what I am learning in my classroom. Even more exciting is I get to walk on April 26th in Portland!! Yahoo! Zac has never been to the coast so it will be exciting to show him all the cool spots in Oregon.
On April 22 I am taking a playing test so I can start being apart of the LPGA I am also so excited about this, it has been a dream of mine ever since I was little and I don't think I could not have come this far without the help the head pro back home at the course. He truly has helped me believe I can do it, so on April 22 wish me luck and keep me in your prayers. :)
Well I think I have posted enough and have updated mostly of what has happened hopefully now that our lives are starting to slow down I will be able to post more, so I can keep track of all our wonderful memories.
