Love Him!

I love that my husband knows exactly when I need a little pick me up!
These flowers were delivered with the sweetest card ever!
I love you Daniel! Sometimes I think you know me better than I know myself.
 I can't imagine spending eternity with anyone else!

Chapters of Life

Well they say when one chapter closes another one opens.  Last week was one of the hardest weeks of my life.  I have been teaching at an amazing school for the past 6 years.  Every hole in the wall was from something I put on the wall.   We lived through the growing pains and slowly this became my home away from home.  In that time I was there I watched my Kinders move to middle school and made some of the best friends that someone could ask for!   


As I packed up all of my things I was able to think about all the amazing memories!  I will say that it will take awhile for my new normal to take shape.  However, I know that my heart is in teaching.  I love it more than anything! I know that I will end up back in the classroom at some point in my life...but for now, it is time for a new chapter.

New Adventure

Well it is true, big changes are ahead of us over the next few months.  Daniel will be starting a new job in a new city!!  We are hoping to (fingers crossed) purchase a home too.  I just pray our neighbors are not ASU fans or it could get ugly...j\k!  

 We have very mixed emotions about all the changes.  This is the opportunity of a lifetime and we feel truly blessed!!  This particular job and move was not in the original plans but was clearly in Heavenly Father's plans for us.  

  I am busy packing up my classroom and fighting through the tears that come with the realization that we are REALLY leaving.  I have had a lot of people asking, "What are you going to do now?"  Well, first I am going to take a big breath and just allow myself a few weeks of relaxation.  Then, I am not really sure.  I know....new territory for me.  So....I am ready to embrace the unknown and I am starting to realize that I don't always need to know what's next!

Ready or Not....The Stone's are starting a new adventure!!

New Ride

We have a Jeep!
As we suspected the Honda was totaled!  We were able to find a new car.  While I loved my little car with amazing gas mileage, I know a bigger car was probably a good idea.  Well we found this car and it had low miles, lots of options, leathers seats, and best of all...it was in our price range.  We have had the car for 2 weeks now and it is starting to grow on me.
