yesterday jared and i splurged and got a roast when we went grocery shopping. this is the second one i have made since we have been married. we let this one cook ALLL day and it just fell apart when it was time to eat! mmmmm!!!! my mashed potatoes are getting pretty darn tasty and this time i made a lot of extra so we could have left overs! i tried to make home made gravey..... but ewwww..... it did not turn out good at all! ill have to have my dad teach me when we are in colorado next week!
school finally ended on friday! YAY! this semester went by really fast! now we are off track till april. i was really stressing about finding a job here in rexburg cause the pay is very low, and we didnt think we would be able to go back to the job we were at over the summer making A LOT more than what we would make here in rexburg, but jared called and they had spots open for us in the lab! so all winter long we are gonna be looking through a microscope at dirt... bleh... although i hate the job, i am very grateful for it and hopefully we can save a lot again! one of the girls i was studying with this semester, her husband just quit his job so he was looking for another one so i gave them the information for the USDA and he applied and got the job too. i think we are gonna carpool down with him starting next year!
the snow finally found rexburg, unfortunately, so we bought new snow tires yesterday for our car... the ones with the studs on them. we figured if we are driving from rexburg to idaho falls everyday in the winter it would be a smart
and safe thing to do... pricey, but safe... there was a BIG difference! hopefully it will continue to be that way!
we have to go to work monday tuesday and wednesday this week, and then after work on wednesday we are driving down to utah and we fly out to colorado on thursday morning! i am so excited i can barely stand it! i hope the weather will cooperate and it will stop snowing so we can get there! i think this post is long enough.... hope everyone has a wonderful christmas! travel safe!!!
