a new chapter

March was one of those months that I never want to repeat or remember. I had to make choices I wasn't prepared to make, crap happened that I had zero control over, and I found myself wondering what in the heck I was even doing with my life!

But if I have learned anything in the past 22 years, it's that there is always a plan.

I guess I should have seen it coming. I complained enough to Steven about how much I hated what I was doing, how bored I was, and how frustrated I felt. Change was pretty much inevitable.

I was blessed way more then I deserved. I was able to get two new jobs working as a dental assistant, something I had been thinking about for at least a year, but too chicken to really pursue anything. The more amazing part is I was hired with zero experience... something i didn't think was possible. I got out of paying for school, and get paid to learn instead.

Like i said, wayyyy blessed.
I have already learned so much in just the couple weeks I've been working. It really is super interesting, and I love it! Bonus points that it's not just another dead end job. I'm stoked I finally got into (and found!) a career that I really love.

Steven and I also have lots of changes coming our way. Some exciting, some a little scary. But all in all, I think it's going to be a really great year for our family :)

April Conference

I can't believe conference has already come and gone!
I love listening to the messages from our Prophet and apostles. 
They have such an amazing spirit about them. They truly are men of God.
I loved the overwhelming messages of family, faith, and enduring to the end!
Did anyone else watch Elder Bednar's talk on Saturday??
He totally threw it DOWN.
Amazing.


I'll be honest, my memory is the worst. I couldn't tell you who said what where or nothin. 
BUT luckily for me, they print them all out later. 
Overall, it was a weekend spent stuffing our faces, hanging with family, and playing with the pups outdoors.
IN THE SUNSHINE!
It's never spring officially until this weekend, I think.
Except that it's suppose to snow Tuesday, so....


Utah is just ridiculous.
Hope your weekend was as lovely as ours!
