Mat thinks it's funny that I'm once again trying to accomplish my goal for 2010 and that is a blog post for each month in the year. It's now the 1st of April and I'm finally posting, completely missing the month of March. Needless to say, March was a busy month. It held many triumphs and trials, but we won't go to far into that....here's a quick recap over the big things....
March
At the very beginning of the month, we lost a dear friend of ours to his battle with cancer and travelled to Preston, Idaho to be at the service. The service was beautiful and really fit who he was. I was going to post some of our cherished memories of him and how his family had touched our life, but feel that they are almost to personal to share in the blogsphere. (Laura, we'll be sending them your way though....:) ) Although, we will say,
he was a friend that lived life to the fullest, had immense faith and cherished his family so much.
We feel truly blessed to have known him, even for a short time, he has left a HUGE impact upon our lives.
Now as we are nearing the end of the month, Mat received
THE news! He has accepted a
JOB with Utah Valley University as a
FLIGHT INSTRUCTOR! We are officially
STAYING in Utah! We are both so excited! I am going to emphasize at how much this has been a challenge to hold out for. Mat received a few other job offers, but we both really felt Utah Valley University was going to be the ultimate option. Mat knows the program, he knows the chief instructors and he knows the airplanes. All in all, they made us wait through a three interview process, but it finally has come through! It feels good to say that we are staying.
This month has flown by with a lack of pictures. I have been slacking on picture taking lately in general. That all will change come April. We are both anxiously awaiting April....graduation, family visits, friends having babies...so many things!!
