Our New Life

Brian and I are really enjoying living here in Iowa City, Iowa. There have been so many changes for us in the last few months that things have been a little crazy! Now that we are all settled in things are going great though. Here is a little update with our lives:

I am dying of boredom at the time since we have finally got everything with our new home into place and decorated for the most part. It was fun to paint and have a place that we can call our own. We are truly very grateful to all of our family that has made it possible for us to own our own place out here. We really love the neighborhoood we are in and just have one set of immediate neighbors at the time. They seem like a really fun couple! Our neighborhoood is very safe and is surrounded by quite a few walking trails, a beautiful pond in our backyard and wetland area to the left of us. The bugs are a different story! Our garage is a cricket graveyard!

I will finally start my full time job on Tuesday this next week. I was teaching part time at a Cosmetology school as an Esthetics Instructor but have recently quite there and moved on to the Spa once again. I will be doing the same thing I was back in Salt Lake as far as services go and am excited to get back into the pampering business. I really enjoyed teaching and would have loved to continue but a part time job just doesn't pay the bills. It will be nice to be busy with work once again. I really quite miss it.

Brian is really enjoying school and doing great! He is VERY BUSY but really loves his professors, the school and his fellow D1 students. There are quite a few LDS kids in Brian's group so that has been really fun and exciting. He is already making many friends with the students around him. School pretty much consumes most of his time, but we knew that would inevitably be the case
