Change

Life is full of changes and Casey and I always seem to thrive on that for some odd reason. I don't always enjoy every part of every change, but looking back on all the changes we have gone through since we've been married I can't say I regret any of those that we chose to make.
We are making some more big changes in our lives right now by moving to Star Valley, WY at the end of this month. We have LOVED our time here in Lander, and most of all we love our ward and the friends we have made. We are sad to leave them and our house that we bought last year and have put an addition on and completely renovated. We have only lived in our new home for 10 months (will be 11 when we move). The past year has been crazy with house projects that I won't miss terribly since I feel like they have taken over my life. I am ready to focus on simply being a mother to two beautiful little boys. But as crazy as the year has been, living in a constant construction zone, it has paid off in the way that we have already got our home under contract and should be closing on it June 3rd or sooner. It is a crazy story but we got an offer for over our asking price without ever even having a 'for sale' sign in our yard or listing with a realtor. What a blessing in these economic times! We only hope that things continue to go smoothly through the closing.
Casey will be teaching Spanish at SVHS and I will be the freshmen volleyball coach. Both of these roles will also bring change. Casey is not hired on to coach any sports right now and I will be taking on that role for the fall season. This will be a BIG change for Casey since he coaches year-round here. I think it will be good for our family though. Casey will get to spend some more time with just him and our boys and I will get a couple hours away from the house each day during that time of year, which I hear can be a good thing for a full-time mom.
We are excited for the upcoming changes and are thankful for all that we have been blessed with.
