Summer Begins

Jose finished school last week on Thursday and is free for two week until clinicals. Last Thursday we also got to go to Michelle's pinning ceremony which was pretty neat. The salon was ridiculously busy last week, but in a good way. I had so many people in my chair I didn't know what to do with myself. We had officially moved in on Tuesday and were operating in the new 4,000 square foot edition. Which is amazing. And it's huge. Or it aleast seems that way from what we had. The Salon was also on the news a couple of weeks ago. Our receptionist was just telling the news crew about how we're going to send all of the hair we cut to this company in California and they are going to make these "hair booms" and send them to the Gulf of Mexico to help the lil fishies and soak up all the oil.

On Saturday Jose and I will celebrate our one year anniversary. He's so cute. We have a calendar on our fridge that's a dry erase board and he redid it for the month of May and wrote "One Year of Happiness" on our anniversary. It made me smile really big. We plan to go to the Temple and eat some place fancy. I just can't believe it has been a year already. I guess time really does fly when you are having fun. Or it makes you realize life here on Earth is too short and makes me grateful that I have all Eternity with Jose as well.

Today we found out we are going to be the proud Aunt and Uncle of a lil BOY!! Ben and Michelle are having a lil boy and boy was he sure not shy about letting them snap the picture proving he's a boy. And if he comes out a girl, I'm switching eye doctors. I already bought fabric for the lil guy to make him something...but that's a surprise. :)

Change.

So as of this past Sunday May 2nd Jose is officially the 2nd Counselor in the Bishopric in our ward. Which means I'll really never see him. Luckily he only has one more year left in school and then he'll be able to have nights and weekends off, so we'll be able to see each other a little more (making real money will be a plus too). Like today for instance. I barely saw him this morning before he left for school cause I'm getting over a cold and could barely open my eyes I was so tired and I won't see him again till after 10:30, because I had to work late at the salon and he had to be at work at 6:30, and I'm pretty sure he has to study for a test so I really won't get to see him. But like they say with harder callings comes bigger blessings right? June is going to be a really hard month for me because he starts clinicals in Tyler working 7 days on 7 days off 10 hours a day which is really 12 because of the driving and then on Tuesdays when he is there I really won't see him because he's going to try and go to institute there. Luckily I'll only have to put up with it for 3 weeks total. Hopefully I can make it. The weird thing about it is that our new bishop's daughter is only 5 years younger then Jose. Ron Works is our Bishop now with Mark Thompson as first counselor and then Jose's the second counselor. But if the Lord thinks we can handle it then I say bring it on!
