Melaleuca







The times they are a-changin', and money doesn't stretch as far as it use to. I have therefore gotten a job with my old employer Melaleuca. I always knew Melaleuca was the best employer, and now I remember why. I've been for a year, and they are giving me my old position back with my old pay! We were expecting more than a dollar less an hour, so this job is going to be an answered prayer! It also means I can work 4-9 instead of a full 40 hr a week job! It also unfortunately overlaps with Devin's schedula, so Courtney will be watched by the Drapers for several hours. Hopefully, by the end of the summer I'll be able to quit and return to my post as full-time mom, which is what we're praying for! I'm excited to be back though, I'll even be with my old team, or at least what's left of them. In other news, Courtney has taken exactly two steps all by herself and I can hardly wait until she justs walks on her own; I'll think she'll be able to entertain herself more if she's walking everywhere. Three weeks ago our ward boundaries were realigned to create a new ward, but I think our ward is still the same size! I am still leading music in sacrament and taking care of attendance and bell ringing as Sunday School secretary. Devin is Sunday School president and is still in the process of choosing counselors. This weekend I am going to a seminar about using rental properties for income. This is another reason for me going to Melaleuca. If we can get a decent duplex or triplex, it might allow Devin to quit work completely and focus on school. But enough of the serious stuff, here's the babe and I playing peekaboo, for those of you not fortunate enough to hear the sounds of a baby laughing everyday...












And her first sucker...what a mess













blowing raspberries...
