Texas Life...

I am sure most of you know that we live in Texas now and we are so excited that Tyler gets to attend Parker Chiropractic School. He started in January and he is in his second semester now...only eight more semester's to go. Ha! For the first few months, I was traveling to California most of the time to finish up work at the dental office with my Dad. It was soooo hard to be away from Tyler that long!!!! Luckily, I have the best husband ever! He is always so supportive with whatever I do! I also have the best Dad too- for giving me a job and teaching me so much!

Tyler came to california in between semester's for a little break and we drove back together with our dog "Bear" in our new car! We really needed a new car- no air conditioning in our good ole 1996 Honda accord.

So I have been back in Texas since May and looking for a job. It has not been easy! My dream job was to work for one of the airlines so I could fly anytime I want but they are not hiring. :( So, I tried just about every Marriott around here and everything else under the sun and they all told me that they are not hiring. I was getting so discouraged, I finally gave in and applied for a cashier position at Pet Smart. They called me and said they wanted to consider me for a management position at the Pet Hotel. I was so excited but a little scared because I did not know what to expect. I mean, I have lots of hotel experience, but not with these type of guests..hehe. I went in for the interview and it is the cutest place ever! The lobby even smells like sugar cookies! I was also worried that I was gonna have to pick up dog poop all day. But, I don't have to- YEAH! I just have to check up on the people that are in charge of cleaning up and I get to check "guests" in to the hotel and play with dogs so they don't get lonely. I can even bring Bear to work with me! I am really excited! here is a link to see kinda what it looks like:

Besides work, Tyler is doing well in school and at church we both get to teach in primary. Tyler teaches the 11yr old class and I get to teach the 4-5yr olds. It can be a challenge but I love it! We have so many nice people in our ward. They have all been so welcoming and I feel very comfortable here! Here are a few pics of life here in Texas....










This is the entrance to our Apartment Building. Thanks to
Preston and Nicole-
we have a very nice place to live!



I took these pictures off the apt. web site- I will post my own with pictures of the inside of our Apt when I get it decorated. :)

Our little puppy

Last year I got one of the best birthday presents I have ever recieved...... my cute little puppy "Bear". Tyler had always told me that if we were ever to get a dog, it would be a big outside dog. He, he! I got my way and we have cute little Bear that weighs only nine pounds. Now that we have him, Tyler loves him! Tyler sometimes spends more time with Bear than I do! ( He doesn't like to admit it) ;) He is my cute little teddy bear and I love him so much! I always thought dog lovers who thought their dogs were a part of their family were crazy but now I am one of them!
