Welcome to Utah

So I got here on November 9th. That is a Friday. On Monday I was driving with Chris picking up a few things and wouldn't you know it...I wasn't even here a full week and I got pulled over!!! I got a speeding ticket! I was apparently going 15 miles over, but the sweet officer only put down that I was 5 over. I think it was because I was new.
We are pretty much settled in. Our apartment is very cute and we decided not to get into a house just yet. We are staying in our cheap apartment for a little while longer:) We love our ward up here. Everybody is so nice! Our Bishop is a body builder:) and he was a cheerleader in high school! isn't that a trip! Bonnie Parkin (the previous General Relief Society President) is in our ward, she is very nice. Elder Zwick of the seventy is in our ward as well. Needless to say our ward is in a very well off area..it is really weird to be around all these doctors and lawyers. We are learning a lot though, which is neat.
I start work next Monday at the Spectrum Academy in North Salt Lake. It is a school for high functioning Autistic and Asperberger kids. So that will be a new adventure. Jon is doing very well at his job and gets along very well with the other techs.
I will tell you this, I really do miss Phoenix. It is so strange being here and being cold and not knowing anybody. It is hard not to get depressed but I know once I start working and get into a routine and start making friends it will get better. I miss all of you!!!

I'd wondered where you'd been!!! I so wanted to see you before you left- heck, all year I've just wanted to see you! Your ward sounds wonderful. All our love to you both. Please come visit soon.

You know what's funny? Elder Zwick is interviewing Chad this week in hopes that Chad will be offered a job as a full time CES instuctor. Small world! I'm glad you're with Jon and having fun in your new ward. Don't worry, soon you'll be called to be the YW's president and then you'll have so many friends, you won't know what to do with.:)
