Let It Snow






Ok. So this is really lame. My student's artwork has been displayed at the local grocery store this month, and I couldn't not get in on film! They were so excited to be real artists. We did stippling paintings and added raisins for the buttons, pipe cleaners for the arms and other odds and ends to make an anatomically correct snowman.

Things have been interesting lately. I have really been feeling a gamit of emotions this past week. I am so thankful to friends and roomates who have helped talk me through it. :) Isn't it just so interesting that just when we think we have it all figured out, Heavenly Father throws you a curve ball. One of the major decisions I have been trying to make is what to do with my life come June. I would like to move, but I can't imagine leaving the school I am at and all the opportunities I have had. Then I look at it, and I am young and single and have a lifetime of adventure waiting for me...and lets face it, Provo starts to sour after 5 years. Any good suggestions???

Well, I am cutting my bangs tomorrow...they are driving me absolutely CRAZY! I am going back to the shorter look, which makes them much eaiser to maintain. (That was a very girly few sentences). I will write more when I have some energy. It is almost past teacher bedtime.

Linds... the artwork is so cute! It's almost like you are famous!! I love it. As for what to do with your life... that is definitely not an easy answer but I will tell you that you will know what is right. I think it would be awesome to travel... or to go somewhere else and teach like at an inner city place... Washington or NY or L.A. I would love to do that, but under my circumstances, I don't really have a choice as to what I do at this point! Pray lots. You will find the right answer. I love you, thanks for going to lunch with me the other day. Let's do it again soon.

How cute is that...I love their artwork! That is so much fun that the local grocery store does that!!!
My sister is feeling the same way...she's just kind of over Provo now! I agree, you're still young and you should be able to move around and go where you want (that's why Matt and I moved to CA, we figured that if we never did that later we would regret it)! I think that it would be fun to move somewhere new!!!
Oh, and you'll have to post pics of your new hair!

Uhg I know how you feel about Provo! It is fun to think of all the places to go...and you really could right now. I would miss you at Geneva though...although who really knows what will happen next year. Thanks for visiting me in the hopsital it was so sweet of you. It is so much nicer to be home and we are having lots of fun with little Summer. She is already changing so much! Oh and by the way I think it was a good decision to get a little hair cut or bang cut...changing my hair always makes me feel better and I am sure it looks cute:)
