Changes

Well life is changing for my family. My mom is moving. It is so crazy packing up stuff and to think about leaving the house you grew up in for your entire life. It is for the best though and I am excited to have my mom closer to me. Rollie is moving too. Far Far away to Texas. It is just time for everyone to have a fresh start and try smething new.

School starts in a couple of weeks. Graduation here I come!!!! I passed my last and final Praxis II exam so all I have to do is finish some classes and student teach. The student teaching scares me to death, but Shane is great at pep talks so I know I will be fine. Besides if I survived the woman in Twin Falls for 309..nobody in Pocatello can be that scary.

I really like living in Grace. The only thing that I am still not used to is the pitch black darkness at night. But the land is beautiful and the people are very nice. Small towns are truly blessed places to live.

4th of July

We spent the 4th in Malad with my family. It was a lot of fun. Julie brought her girls. They are very sweet and cute girls. The first picture is the new "potential" Gleed family photo. The second is me teaching Ally how to "cook". All she did was help me make salad dressing, but she thought that was awesome. The fireworks were cool, we bought mortars this year which is quite possibly the biggest firework show ever seen at the Gleed household.

Greetings from Grace!

This is the most recent photo of Jake and I outside of our new house. My family came over for my birthday party. The first photo just shows that Jake loves his momma. At least he did a month ago. Now he has an attitude.

Sorry it has been so long since I have posted anything. I don't have the internet at my house and the internet at my in-laws is the slowest dial up on the planet. No joke. If you want to check your email you had better plan on at least an hour just for the important messages and another hour to look at anything fun. I have literally been trying to create this post for over an hour!

Things are going pretty well here in Grace. It is really quiet out here and I love it. I'm a little worried about commuting to school in Pocatello in the Fall because of the crazy gas prices.

Tasha, it was great to see you! I was so excited when you called and said you were in Grace. I can't wait to come to Brittney's baby shower and see everyone.

Shane and I are going to Malad for the 4th of July to see my family. Rollie's girlfriend and her two daughters flew up here from Texas. I have met Julie, and am extremely excited to meet her girls who may be my new potential nieces! I hope so anyway.

Shane's New Toy

Shane has been wanting one forever and now he finally has one. It is a 2008 Polaris Sportsman 4 wheeler. It's camoflauge to which Shane thinks is super cool. I like it...it's a lot of fun to drive.

I PASSED!!!!!

I got my scores for my PRAXIS II exam. I passed!!!! That is such a huge relief. One down one to go. I have to take another one in June. In secondary education you have to take one for your major and one for your minor so that is why there are two tests.

It's starting to get time to move soon. I am way excited. It is on to new adventures.
