Welcome to my blogspot!!

I am so excited to finally be "in" with the bloggers now! I have a million pictures that I wanted to show to family and friends and what an easy way to do it!
So to start off with news, our family just moved from West Valley to Eagle Mountain. This was a HUGE move for us, not only because of the distance, but because of the huge lifestyle differences between those cities! I still can't believe how lucky we are to have found such a wonderful place to live and raise Hayden. We have a wonderful ward (with the biggest primary in the entire church worldwide) and the members have been so welcoming to us. We just received our first callings yesterday: Rick is the High Priest Group Secretary and Ward Missionary and I was called to be the 4-yr-old Sunbeam teacher (keep in mind there are 3 4-yr-old classes, yikes!).
We are excited though to finally feel like part of the ward and to be able to help serve.
Hayden loves nursery! His teachers always comment on how impressed they were to see him singing all the words to the songs. He LOVES singing and is so good at it. :)

I haven't been working for awhile now and I LOVE it! But the extra income would be nice. I am still employed with the church, but decided to take some time off to get settled and be home with Hayden for awhile. Rick loves his job still, but it's been pretty stressful. The city is basically out of money and the citizens don't want to have their taxes increased, so they're trying to get the city to downsize their employees (which has already started taking place). It's a little scary to think that we just moved and Rick could possibly lose his job, but I know that we were supposed to move out here and that the Lord will take care of us. Rick has already received an offer to paint a mural for an architect, so if his bid works out, that could be some nice cash in our pockets. :)

That's pretty much all our news for right now. Hope everyone is well! Enjoy the pics!
