Lyssa Update

Lyssa has been very busy with her calling of teaching in the Relief Society.  She spends hours preparing her lesson, and all of that preparation pays off.  Every 4th Sunday (the one she teaches) I get at least three to four comments about how wonderful of a teacher she is.  Lyssa is also staying very busy at work, she comes home everyday exhausted!  Apparently she is one of the few employees in her department that is willing to work on this new computer program, so as a result, she is doing all of her work plus two or three of her co-workers loads.  Everyday she gets up at 4:00 a.m., gets ready for work, we drive her to the bus stop by 5:01 a.m., she rides the bus to work and arrives around 7:00 a.m.  Later that day, she gets on the bus at 2:00 p.m., rides down to tracks, takes tracks to another bus stop, and arrives home around 4:00 p.m.  She is getting very tired of this routine, but it only has to continue until I begin working at Fox Hollow.  I am so grateful to have such a wonderful wife that is willing to sacrifice so much (spending time with Maty and me) to help our family stay above water during this summer.

Maty Update

Maty has been crawling all over the place.  Her new favorite place to crawl into is her little toy box downstairs.  She is still usually a pretty happy little girl, when she has been fed, taken her nap, and her diaper has been changed.  Her favorite past times are reading the mail (I'll put a picture of that on here), picking on the dogs, and hanging out with daddy (she is a daddy's girl, at least for now).  

I Know We Are SLACKERS!!!

Well, apparently Lyssa was going to keep this blog up-to-date....um she has been way busy, so I guess I will hurry and give a quick update.  Maybe after giving her a starting point (a little more recently than March, she won't be so overwhelmed keeping up on it.  Also, for those that don't know, I also have my own blog @ bachler9.blogspot.com.  To all those who know me, remember that I have a very bad short-term memory.  With that said, I will try and put the most important information on this blog.  I'm also going to put little snip-its of what is going on in my life, but I hate typing things twice, so for more information check out my blog.
