Changes...

About two weeks ago, Brodee and I finally purchased our house. We were so excited to get moved in and settled. Both our families were lots of help during this moving process.. so here are a few pictures to show what only some of our house looks like. It has an upstairs and downstairs, and for right now, we mainly live in the upstairs... 

Master Bedroom...I sure do love our bedspread :)

There are three other bedrooms downstair

Guest bathroom. This is 1 of 3 bathrooms in the house.

This is my favorite room, we call it the 'RED WALL ROOM" =)

The kitchen!

The living room, which really never gets used...I guess it is for decoration and looks more than anything :)



The garage (AKA Brodee's Man Cave) He really likes it out here. He has everything set up just how he wants and he seems to be enjoying the free time he can have out here (which isn't much).

Movie night at the Boden's...Holly and Emmet decided to join us, we watched Transformers 2

Not only were we able to move into our house, but the second big change was starting school. I started school on the 29th of August. I teach 2nd grade at Raft River Elementary. On the first day of school, I asked myself after seeing my 32 children, "Why did I choose this profession?" But as the week continued, I've settled in my classroom and come to find out my children aren't so bad ;) I also am coaching 7th grade volleyball, it's nothing like high school, but I guess this will test my patienct..so far, not so good, but working on it. One top of all that I also have to take two classes this first year...just when I thought I was done with college, the work starts back up again. My mom used to tell me that I would have the most 'spare' time while I was in college, and I would always just say "whatever mom", because I was pretty busy, BUT I guess I should have listened, because of right now, she is right. I do love my life, I feel so fortunate and blessed to have what I do, have such amazing families and a good husband. Life couldn't get any better than this =)

Brodee, is also pretty busy. He works for Butte Irrigation still and is clocking in more than 40 hours a week. On Tuesday and Thursday nights he has school where he is finishing up his Electrical; after this semester he has 3 more; so by the time he gets home it is usually between 10:00 and 10:30 pm and he leaves in the mornings at 6:30, so for him, it is a fairly long day. However, he never seems to complain about school or work... I think he just does it cause he has too ;)
