Happy mother's day! This week Paul and I had it pretty easy. We are getting ready to move down to Provo. I've been looking for jobs and Paul's been packing and getting his paperwork done. I had a phone interview for a job in Provo and I have an in person interview next week.  I also had my last day at the Chinese restaurant this week. I'm so happy I don't have to work as a waitress ever again :P
We also were able to get an MRI this week for Paul. His doctor has been so fast in helping us out, it's been great. The MRI radiologist got back to us and let us know that Paul has a chiari malformation, type 1. He has 13 mm of his cerebral tonsils poking out of the base of his skull. This presents a risk for harming the brain stem and usually requires surgery. The surgery is highly successful and consists of removing a small piece of the skull to relieve pressure. Paul has an appt to see the surgeon in June. We are very hopeful. 
Love you all! Thank you for the texts of support and for your prayers ❤️

Monday was veterans day and I didn't have to go to work. I just did meal prep stuff to save time during the week while Paul went to school.  Other than that, the week has been busy with school and work. I tried the chicken pot pie recipe Brianna sent me and it was super yummy!  Paul and I tried the new pizza place in Logan this weekend. There was an hour wait so I put my name in when I got off work and then picked up Paul, so it didn't feel like a long wait. It was super yummy, Chicago style pizza. We also downloaded Disney+ and have rediscovered some fun movies like Swiss Family Robinson.  That's all from us. Love you all!

Monday I woke up to a text from Michelle Wilcox telling me that James was in an accident and was in the hospital. This alarmed me. I called Mom, Dad, and Ben to ask what happened and no one answered! Mom called me back soon after. She had been awake all night with James. He was in the Neuro intensive care unit. They wanted to watch him at the hospital for a couple days because he got a concussion and cracked his head close to an artery. They wanted to make sure he didn't get any bleeding from that. Paul and I drove up to salt lake to see him. We talked to him for 30 minutes before he went to bed. He seemed really good. He wasn't confused at all or repetitive. He was tired and had a headache.  Tuesday we watched dial M for Murder with Grandma Terry. It was really fun! Wednesday we went to Paul's cousin, Christian's, 6th birthday party. We took him some avengers toys. His parents are our age and so sweet. It was fun to see them. Wendy came down to have lu...

I just wanted to start by letting everyone know, who doesn't know already, that I post many family recipes online. If you don't have Charlotte's cook book near by or Mom isn't home to text you the recipe, I have provided four resources where you can hopefully find the recipe you are looking for. The picture below shows where to go to find these recipes on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and on my personal blog.  This week has been pretty good. I had a good second week working at the court house. It is only part time so I applied for another job in the evenings. I interviewed for a cleaning service that cleans offices Monday-Saturday for two hours each night. My interview was at 5:15 on Monday, so I showed up at 5:07. When the guy didn't come, I texted him at 5:20. He didn't respond until 5:30 and didn't show up until 5:50. I was quite annoyed. He basically gave me a promotion in the interview, asking me what times I could work in the evening and i...
