4 years and 4 months along...

Dear Mr. Olsen

4 years! We made it!
Love you,

Your wifee

P.s. Next phase in life comes on March 20th!!

Life is on the Up and Up...

First things first I really have to brag about Justin, his work has been paying off, Big Time! And I am so happy for him, he really is doing what he loves and making it happen. He has an article out in the August Issue of Decline Magazine. If your not familiar it is a really big Mt. Biking magazine. I'm so proud!


He also has a picture in this issue of Snowboard Magazine. It has all the newest Boards, Boots, and Binding. His picture is an advertisement for Never Summer Snowboards. If you find yourself browsing the magazine sections.. You should check it out.






P.s. I managed to make it through the first week of teaching...
P.s.s Whistler trip was all and more than I hoped for... Especially because of these people.

the summer continues

the summer continues to treat us right.. may brought us amazing mustaches that suited the job, and june has been a dream with amazing weather and new sights to see. we couldn't be better! 

I tell ya we really have it easy.. the sights we see everyday are out of this world.

More Good News..

I can't quit smiling, I guess that we must be doing something right. I feel so incredibly blessed, I have been quite stressed thinking about how I was going to find a job when I am only home from the river for the weekends. The demand for teachers in Utah has changed a bit this year, I believe because the economy and how the world is taking a turn, many teachers are holding on to their jobs, their isn't as big of a turnover rate as usual. So I really feel even more blessed that I have been given a teaching position at Pony Express Elementary in 2nd grade. I really can't wait! I'm completely thrilled! Me a teacher, CRAZY  I know!

grad-u-at

I did it! I am finally done! A real bitter sweet, but I am so happy that I stuck with it! I couldn't have done it with out the support of an amazing husband and wonderful family!
*Loves to all of you!
* Hugs and Kisses!

Nephew turning 1...

** and I graduate on friday!

moab to monterey

the van has been eager and waiting.. and we have been also. From moab to monterey, i believe that the van is fulfilled but justin and I have only begun the summer of adventure. The large blue betty will see many more desolate parking lots, and the windshield will take many more innocent lives.to those small bugs that splat yellow. of course. could life get any better?
