update

i will put up more pictures when i feel like it, but for now, just a little update. we've been in st george now for a week and its been a rough week. when we first got here, we had 1200 bucks stolen from us right out of davids wallet..aka what was left of all our savings from working so much in rexburg. good thing we already paid our 900 dollar move in fee for our apartment before it was stolen!! david has been spending about 13 hours a day up at dixie state coaching football/in meetings/watching film/what ever they do. he is pretty worn out by the time he gets home and it has been a little bit of a rough start for him. he's pretty much a grad assistant and everyones little you know what...but he is trying to get used to it and work his way up. he keeps saying he wants to move home (to washington). i have a feeling that it will happen sooner than later...david gets really homesick and we love doing stuff with our families.

we dont know anyone in st george and david really likes having friends. yesterday he came home and was like..guess what?! i think i found us some friends..hahahaha. it was the funniest thing ever cause he was so excited and i was like cool and then he got mad at me that i wasnt as excited as he was so i did a little happy dance and that made him happier haha. we just got internet today. they told us they were going to come yesterday but they never did. in david's words it was "just par for our course". some good news is that i have a job but only 12 hours a week so far. i have been busy trying to find another job and it looks like it might take some time. right now i work with the cutest couple who are about 98 years old but totally with it and they are pretty much self sufficient..its amazing!!!!

i love st george, the weather here is amazing. and having a pool is also a plus. can't complain about that. i am still trying to get my house put together. im not feeling very motivated lately..i dont know why. ive been trying to work out everyday now that we have a gym in our complex!! and so far im goin on 4 days in a row! hopefully i can keep that up!

i start school on monday. i am just taking one class (english ughhh) becuase thats all i need to get into the nursing school here. i am crossing my fingers that i can get in but with a B average its really hard. i will know in a couple months.

david isn't going to go to school this semester because he needs to work so that we can save up some money this semester. his football schedule will slow down after 2 a days are over.

Oh my goodness I am so sorry! that is so sad, a pit in your stomach for sure. Why was he carrying around 1200 dollars in his wallet?? I bet the weather is amazing in st george. i'm jealous you have a pool! I hope everything else is going well for you!
