Thanksgiving

I have been pretty busy lately so I never got a chance to post about Thanksgiving.
First, Zac's wonderful parents were so kind and brought all of our stuff to us from Utah. I have never been so happy to see a toaster in all my life! I also forgot how much stuff we had!

We had Thanksgiving dinner up in LA with Zac's grandpa, his parents and all of his siblings. It is always fun spending time with Zac's family. Zac and I had Andy & Rachel and Paul & Katherine stay with us one night. So of course we had to do something San Diegian with them. What is more southern Cal than a fire on the beach? 

I am grateful for the wonderful family that I married into that always makes me feel at home and loved. I am grateful for Zac's parents who are always so kind and willing to help. I am grateful for all of Zac's siblings and their spouses who are some of our best friends. Thanks for spending Thanksgiving with us! 

A Heart Full of Thanks

I got a job! ACI hired me on full-time as a Wellness Specialist. I am finally starting my career in the field that I wanted to work in. I interviewed for a different position at ACI the Monday before Thanksgiving and the Monday after Thanksgiving they gave me the job. I was in the middle of training for that position when my boss told me that I had done such great work during my internship that they wanted to offer me a position in the Wellness department.
Over the last month my career had been a huge stressor for me. I was working at Forever 21 and working at my internship and trying to somehow save money to get Zac through school. I could not have been more grateful or excited for the offer. Not only does this job allow me to help Zac out with school and use my degree but it also means I get to go home for CHRISTMAS!!! I absolutely love Christmas. I love the music, the decorations, the feeling, the cookies, the movies..............and most of all I love being home with my family. I get so excited just thinking about it.
