Teresa is looking for a Summer Job...HELP

We are moving to Cedar City in the Fall but we are staying in Provo for the summer so I can make it to Camp for Young Women's. I am still filling in at the bank but I cannot only depend on that so I am looking for a temporary job just for the summer. If anyone knows of any positions, send them my way. With my degree in Marriage Family and Human Development, the ideal job would be working with kids and providing childcare.

Where I have worked in the past:
I have worked in a bank for four years and have gained many office/receptionist skills.

For the past year I have worked in an elementary school teaching students reading skills, teaching ballroom dance, and working with special-ed.

If you know of anything send it my way...THANKS!

Computers and Internet...BLAH

So in case you have been wondering where we have been...we are still here. I have so much I want to post but we currently do not have access to the internet. Our neighbors who have been in charge of it have moved and we are waiting for our other neighbors to take charge because they will be here longer then we will be. I never realized how much I use the internet until now. I keep trying to hop on to check anything and everything and it never works. Anyways we are currently at the library where we have never been to so much until now:).

I thought I would hurry drop a line and tell you we are here and a few of the things I want to post are:
-Our trip home
-Graduation
-The new Bosch Burke gave me (a total surprise and I love it!)
-Burke's new chop saw (it is now summer so Burke is back to do doing his GREAT and CREATIVE projects)
-Our Ballroom Club's performance

I am sure there are a few more but I will get to them someday...I promise!

For Family Night last night, Burke and I made Chocolate covered Strawberries! I have never been very succssful at making thsese! But for some reason they turned out great! Plus, because of the price, they were better than the ones you buy at a chocolate store;)!

For the lesson Burke pulled out "Preach My Gospel" and we did the Attribute Activity on pg. 126. This activity lists all of the Attributes of Christ and you rate yourself from 1-5 on each one. It is a great activity to do with your spouse and recognize the areas you can work on individually and/or together! I definitely recommend this to everyone! It is a great FHE Idea...Thanks Burke!

Conference

My Niece from Idaho was on spring break so she came to visit us the weekend before Conference. It was so much fun to have her here! We went to the Young Women's Broadcast up in Salt Lake at the Conference Center. This was so fun for her because up there they never really get the opportunity to go. We did a lot of fun things with her. For Family Home Evening we went bowling. Of course Burke won, second was Melissa, and I came in last:(. She is getting older which means she is getting taller. As you can see she is comming up on me! We had so much fun spoiling her! Love you Lisa!Conference Weekend Burke and I had tickets to the Sunday Morning Session of conference. It was such a relaxing weekend and Conference made it that much better. We were able to see Burke's brother KC and his friends up there too!
I really enjoyed many of the talks. It has been hard for me to see President Hinkley not at Conference. However, I have no doubt That President Monson is called by God and leads and guides the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints!

--HAPPY BIRTHDAY--


I had a lot of fun planning for Burke's birthday this year! I decided to bake a kind of cake that I had never made before and I liked the way it turned out (I want to learn more about making cakes). Lucky for me I got to see him all day long because we work together and surprise him with balloons at work! All the kids were so cute and told him Happy Birthday a bazillion times and I can't even count how many cards he was given...I think I may have some competition with a few of the little girls ;). The day was a lot of fun. Burke loves Panda Express so we went there and then I sent him on a little scavenger hunt for movies that remind me of him and dates that we have been on. It was so much fun to create and watch him discover where the next movie was hidden!


Burke is Incredibly handsome, Amazingly talented, Extremely smart, and a Tremendous guy to love! Love you lots sir!

(This picture is a little blurry but I loved it!)

-WELCOME HOME-

Last night our close friend, Becky Graf, came home from Serving a Mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Russia. Her flight did not land until mid-night but we were not about to miss her! Becky and I were room-mates when we moved up to Provo to go school and we did just about everything together. I have always looked up to her and knew she would one day go on a mission. The people in Russia were lucky enough to have her! Becky is full of love and willing to serve anyone with whatever is needed. Of course the airport is such an exciting and busy time so we are looking forward to talking with her more and hearing about her great experiences as she served in Russia. Welcome home Becky--We love you!

Jackson Hole

This past weekend we went up to Jackson Hole Wyoming to visit family. It was such a blast and we want to thank them for the fun time we had. Since we went over Valentines we didn't mind splurging on passes to go Snowboarding. I watched little Sophie for a little bit with Kate and then decided that I might as while give snowboarding a try. When we were dating Burke told me that he would only teach me how to snowboard if he found out he loved me. Well, since that came true:) he now had to teach me! He was a great teacher and was so patient with me! I fell down a couple a times on the first few runs and then I was pretty good from there. All the credit goes to Burke....he was an amazing teacher!
