GREAT NEWS!

Yesterday was our 9th Wedding Anniversary. It was a very happy day for us. Stuart had scouts so we are going out this weekend. But....we got some great news. Stuart got the job that he wanted. He will be the Spanish speaking Psychologist at the Autism Center of Excellence through UCSD!!! Up to this point the Center has not been able to facilitate Spanish speakers. His bosses are world renowned pyschologists in the field of autism. He starts the day after he finishes his internship. He will be working in La Jolla (San Diego) so we get to stay here in our wonderful ward (although at the end of May we are moving to another apartment). I am so proud of him and am so grateful for one choice he made many years ago to serve a mission (Spanish speaking). We have been talking about how many good things in his and in our families' lives stem from that one decision. We are so grateful!

Tara- he officially graduates from Texas Tech in August, which is why we will see you and all of our Lubbock friends again.

Tara said...

congratulations. We had been talking about that with a few people and wondering if anyone knew when and if you were coming back for graduation. It will be fun to see your family again. Are you going to buy a house now or still just rent for a while? We're happy for you guys and hope all continues to go well. Happy Anniversary too!
