Guymon Update!

I have been ignoring this blog, I know! I feel like I need to update everyone on what is going on in our lives!

First of all, for Dave...

1. He is almost done with school!! He walks in April, and then he is doing his student teaching this summer so he will officially graduate in July!

2. He got his student teaching placement for a Magna, Utah 6th grade class! At first, he was put in a 1st grade class, but he had a teacher looking out for him and moved him to 6th grade!

3. He has been teaching in Idaho Falls 2 days a week in a 5th grade class and LOVES it! All of the students love him so much! He is an excellent teacher!

4. He has a interview with District 91 in Idaho Falls this month! Please pray for us! It is a tough time for teachers to get a job! He was told to take the first job he is offered so please pray that he will get an offer before student teaching.

McKenzie Update...

1. This month is my last month at Radiance Salon in Rexburg. It is pretty bitter sweet. I love the atmosphere of the salon, but I am so excited that we are getting over the Rexburg stage of orur life.

2. Artistry By McKenzie G is sold at Brittany Rae Boutique in Rexburg! I am so excited about this! It is a huge move for me and I am excited to find more places that will sell my items!

3. Artistry By McKenzie G is officially international! In the last month, I have had 2 international Etsy sales! One in Australia and the other in Singapore!

4. I cut my hair off! I had been growing my hair out for quite a while, and I finally decided to cut it! I love it! Once again, thank you Autumn!

The Guymon Update...

1. The weekend of April 10th, we are moving from Rexburg to Midvale, Utah in a weekend! We will be moving in with Dave's mom Nikki from April til the beginning of July.

2. We are hoping to be able to purchase our first home at the end of this year! Please once again, send us your prayers. We want this so badly!

3. We have been married for 1 year and 9 months! Craziness!

4. We are in love as ever!

Girl Loves Glam Blog!

I have been wanting to start a blog about style. And I did it! I will post things on there each day...if not every few days or so on fun things that I have found that I love. Some days it will be something I purchased, would like to purchase, or just tips that I have! Follow me! Enjoy!

GOAL!

I just read Megan's post on her blog and I love that she can go back and look at the goals that she set for 2009! So I am going to make goals and write them on here so I can do the same next year! Thanks for the idea Megan!!

1. Read my scriptures daily- I have been doing this fairly well lately, I love the Spirit that I can feel throughout the day because of it. I want to continue feeling that Spirit.

2. Have Family Home Evening- I want to have FHE weekly. In Elder Bednar's talk he talked about how important it was to have FHE even if it seemed extremely difficult to do. I love the example he gave about his boys accusing the others of breathing his air! Even Elder Bednar's family isn't perfect!

3. Treat my body like the temple it is- Our bodies are creations of our Heavenly Father. I have realized lately that I haven't treated it that way so much. I need to love my body and treat it like a creation of my Heavenly Father. I will try not to eat super late, because when I do, I feel sicky!

Dave's Goals for the new year are...to respect the Atonement by not talking about others' faults, misdeeds, or shortcomings; to read the Old and New Testaments; and to make at least one statement of gratitude about my life by the end of each day.

And our goal as a couple for the year is...

To continue our daily scripture study together!

I have faith that as long as we live our lives correctly, we will be able to make these goals.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

P.S. Does anyone know how I can make a word a link instead of me having to post freakishly long links on my blog? Like so that I could just have the phrase "Elder Bednar's Talk" be the link? Thanks!
