Last Saturday we packed up our things and moved to Mesa. Such a bittersweet day. I had tears in my eyes as I looked back at the small town of Thatcher in my rear view mirror. Its the place that holds most of mine and ethans memories together. The place we met, dated, were engaged in, and lived in for our first year of marriage. Its sad to think that we will probably never go back to that small town.
On the bright side we are happy to be living in Mesa. A fresh new start, new jobs, and continuing our education somewhere else. This part of our life is going to bring new changes, new experiences, hopefully new family members ( down the road.... although ethan and I are VERY baby hungry) new callings, and new friends! We already love our new ward and we only have gone to it once. Our apartment is SO much bigger than our last one and we are loving having our own washer and dryer and dishwasher!
Ethan got the job at Sonic and I just got my job with the City of Mesa for the summer. I have had a couple of interviews for different full time jobs and I am praying and fasting on which direction I want to take. I am thinking about pursuing my education and do online schooling and getting my Pharmacy Technician Degree.
We are so excited for this new chapter in our lives and cant wait for all the new memories we will be making!! Here are some pictures from our last picnic on Mt. Graham. We were feeling very sentimental our last days there so we made a little trip up to the mountain where we shared our second date. We had a great time reminiscing about the things we talked about on that date and how much fun we had. Love simple dates like those.
Congratulations!! Way to power through it, and I hope everything in Mesa is wonderful :D
