June Happenings

June was good.  Nice to be out of school and get into the swing of summer.  Zack ended up being home for most of June, which was a little frustrating for him but a nice surprise for us.  Kate continues to teach piano, and both of the girls got a job coaching younger kids in mountain biking.  I think they've enjoyed it for the most part (I'm sure they'd be quick to tell me it's not fun, it's a job...)

We started the summer off with sending the girls off to trek.  They had an overall good experience.  They would both say definitely type 2 fun.  They were sure dirty when they got home!  We started up mountain bike practices.  This year Sage is the only one on the team.  Kind of weird to just have one kid participating, but kind of nice too.  She's been biking up a storm and is turning into a good little rider.  

I got a job!  This was not planned.  Kind of fell into my lap, but I'm hoping it's a good thing.  I'll be working in same day surgery at the Park City Hospital.  Surgery means no nights, weekends, or holidays.  Once I get through training I'll be working prn, so I'm only required to work once every pay period.  I'm thinking I'll probably end up working once a week.  So far I'm really enjoying it.  I like the people I work with and it's been nice to use my nurse brain again.  Fingers crossed I don't regret this decision in a month.

And the big news of the month, really the year, is that we finally finished and moved into the office!!!  Hallelujah!  That just about killed us.  Really.  I would like to say that since it's been done everything's been much more calm and stress free.  Unfortunately, it seems like there were lots of things that quickly took it's place.  But we're still so happy to be moved in to a permanent location.  Yay!

Kate was obviously very excited...

I went with Kate and her friend Presley to Cedar and St George to tour SUU and Utah Tech.  Kate really liked Utah Tech.  I think she's seriously considering going there!

This year the team is doing 6 hour rides at each race location.  Basically you ride the course as many times as you can in six hours.  A great way to get to know the course really well.  The first one was at Eagle Mountain and Sage and I rode 40 miles.  Longest ride ever for both of us!

Sage did her first time trial.  She did great!

While we were at the time trial Kate made a cake for Jake to celebrate finishing the office.  Yay!  Also, Kate has dinner ready for us when we get home from practice at 8:30.  This has been life changing for me.

Hopefully the last time we move this table.
