3 month update!

We are loving everything about Spokane. This past year has really flown by.... I can't believe we are halfway done with graduate school! Jared has been working his butt off with school and applying to internships for this summer and I can definitely say that prayers have been answered!

Back in December we were told we needed a summer internship somewhere. We instantly thought about how fun it would be if we went to Arizona and spent the summer there with family and friends. Ideal right? Jared got in contact with a family friend and started working on it right away. 4 months later, after many emails and phone calls and a nagging wife (my bad), Jared was accepted for a summer internship at St. Josephs hospital in Phoenix, Arizona. We leave in 2 weeks and are so excited to be back in the sunshine and spend the summer with family! 

I finished up my last week at the YMCA and have really enjoyed my time there. I have the opportunity to teach my water aerobics classes when I get back and am planning on doing that (free membership yeah!) and find another job as well. Jared has a job interview this week for a teaching assistant with 2 of his professors at the school this week! This would not only look great on his resume.... but let's be honest, Jared would ROCK it! We are so nervous and excited for him and hope he gets it! 

We have met some of the greatest people here and really have friends that are our new family! We have had the best year and really hope the next one is just as great! The weather here is beautiful and most days are sunny and warm! Spring in the northwest: nothing better! 

the warm weather finally came after a long winter... we were SO excited!
