New Job!

My new job is so much fun! I think I posted last time that I was going to be working in Elementary Schools, but in the true fashion of school districts, I showed up last Wednesday and found out that I'd be in a Middle School 4 days/week and an Elementary for one day/week instead. I am loving it though! Granted, we won't have any students until Monday, but all of the people I work with are fantastic! I have a huge office which is pretty unheard of and it's almost decorated. I'll post pictures when I get all of my papers put away.

I am really lucky this year because a friend of mine, Krista, is letting me rent a room in her condo- so I get to live closer to work and best of all, live with a great friend! I'm a little north of the city, but other than getting used to driving again, it's awesome! We have the best sunsets here...
... this is the view from our back porch. I eat dinner or read outside a lot, just so I can watch the sunsets. They're so different every day!

Last weekend my step-sister, Erin, and best friend, Claire, came to visit. I was really glad to have them here during my first few days of work. Things were really busy, but it was good to come home to people that I love! We went to a concert, for a nighttime cruiser ride in downtown denver (with a few hundred other people!), hiking, to a few breweries, and had a great time!
Here's us on the Cruiser ride- the theme was sci-fi. We didn't get too into our costumes.
