August 20, 2007


Tyler & Natalie Christensen family


We're getting excited for Eli's 2nd birthday on Saturday. We'll be having a party at the park similar to what we did last year but this time with a Mater (from the movie Cars) pinata. Here's a look at the invite we made...

In other news, school is about to start (next week) so we've had a lot of new members of the church moving in and have been busy helping with things. We've had several member move into our neighborhood, which is pretty exciting for us.

Things are going well with Natalie's pregnancy. She is not 6 months along and starting to get weird cravings (like eating dinner in the evening, and a glass of water before bed, and cereal for breakfast). She's still pretty active and we're getting excited for our girl.

I've been really busy these last few weeks with work. I'm on a new project where I have helped design the curriculum for a course that new instructors have to take (it's kind of like a support group for a bunch of ed psych teachers teaching for the first time). I will be researching how the adapt to being new teachers and studying the ways that we can best support them so the transition is smooth. This project is much more aligned with my career objectives than Quest Atlantis was so its a really big opportunity for me.

hey, this looks good! so everyone can put any exciting news here? is there a way for others to view it without having to look at the comments? my bishop's son and their family just moved to bloomington to go to school--you'll have to be on the lookout for them. my bishop's last name is thackery, but i'm not sure if it's his son or his son-in-law. if i remember, i'll ask him on sunday. have a good night!
