A New Butterworth in the Family!!!

A couple weeks ago Tyler and I headed to Idaho Falls to go to his little brother Trevor's wedding. He married the cutest girl ever. Her name is Crystal and we just love her. I am so blessed to have some of the greatest sister in laws on both sides of the family. Their wedding and reception was absolutely gorgeous. Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures of the bride or Tyler and I. But we did manage to get a few others.

I am on the countdown of my student teaching now. I only have 13 days left. That is keeping out this next week because it is Spring Break. This 2nd block has been a real struggle for me, completely different from what I had the first round, but I couldn't be more grateful for the frustrations and conflicts I have had. It has taught me that teaching isn't a perfect carbon copy every year. I am glad I have found that out now instead of after I get a job.
Tyler is still working both of his jobs and keeping the house in order. I hate to admit it, but he has taken over being the house wife practically. On his days off he does the laundry and cleans the house. I am super embarrassed to admit that, but he is such a great husband to do what he needs to do, so I can spend countless hours at school and at home planning.

Travis and Kambrie. She was so happy!
Kambrie loves her Uncle Tyler,
I can't imagine why!

Just a Little Update

Its been a while since I have update our blog.
We have been pretty busy lately. Tyler is being such a huge supporter in our family.
We don't see each other often, but what else can ya do?! :)
Tyler is busily applying for jobs, so that he can have a "REAl" job. Its crazy to think that we are at that point in our life.
I just finished up my first block of student teaching. It was such a great experience. I was in a 3rd grade
classroom and it was so hard to leave them on Wednesday. Each of them helped
me so much in answering all of my questions of why I want to be a teacher.
I loved going everyday to see their bright smiling faces. I had a few students tell me everyday that
they really enjoyed eating me on their pancakes every morning. I thought it would get
old, but it always just made me giggle. I have forgotten that I have a first name and a maiden name. I almost go to introduce myself to others by saying, "Hi, I am Mrs. Butterworth." I have to rethink
a few times and then try again. Believe me I don't want everyone to call me
Mrs. Butterworth, but it is quite funny to hear the comments the kids gave the first few days
I started.
I start tomorrow in a 4th grade classroom. I am a little nervous because I have to learn all new routines, but I am so excited to be able to try everything that I just learned the past 7 weeks on a new set of kids.

Here are a few pictures from the past couple of months.
