Is it really over!?

Yes my friends it is!

A very bitter sweet day it was.

This morning Spencer was fired from his job at Papa Murphy's!

We won't bash Papa Murphy's but the reason is really stupid. We are, rather I am very nervous about this change in our life. I just started my new nanny job thankfully but it will not pay all the bills. Being like most women I like security in things, especially finances.

On the upside! There are great blessings in this change! Spencer has enrolled in school for the summer and besides me and a part time job he can focus solely on school. We are hoping it can stay this way for a while so he can get a bunch of it out of the way.

I think we are both kinda happy to finally be done with the pizza industry!

Anyhoo, if anyone needs side jobs done around the house or a babysitter you can once again call the Jensens!

Who Loves Primary?

WE DO! WE DO!

Most Sundays our Primary class is a little chaotic and stressful today was different by far!

It was AMAZING!

I always love our Primary children even when the are irreverent but I love them even more when they are reverent!

I have decided to keep our class active in the things we do because they get very bored and unruly quick. Today we had a scavenger hunt around the church to find the greatest treasure we will ever have in life. We found the scriptures which symbolize the teachings of Christ and Heavenly Father.

I am always so amazed by these children and how smart they are!

They usually know all the answers! I hope that I have some part in their knowledge of the gospel but I know they all have GREAT parents to teach the gospel in their home.

They thoroughly enjoyed the cupcakes I made, as you can see in the above pictures!

We love teaching Primary SO much and will be so sad when our kiddos move on to another class.

Bagley Family

I am starting my new nanny job next week and I

Just want to let you know how much fun I have had being with you in the morning!

EZRA

These are the two things I have come to know Ezra by:

Sucking on his two fingers and his "Boo Bankie!"

LUCILLE

Sweet Little Lucille I will miss your BIG Smiles in the morning when you wake up!

RUBY

I am very glad I will still get to spend time with my Ruby every Sunday!

She makes me laugh!

Jill I will miss our morning chats!

I hope you will call me for some night time sitting 'cause I love your kiddos!

Cupcake Crazy!

In efforts to make our Primary class more exciting I decided to make a little treat for them. We also have a little girl in our class who has a birthday this weekend. It is a little early to make them but Jill's birthday is also tomorrow and I want to take some to her and her family.

So as you can see the pics are in order. From baking to cooling on a plate.

Then we add a little frosting, or a lot. Finishing them off with some cute multi-colored sprinkles and funky candles!

Then they were all eaten by...

The cupcake monster!

Just kidding, he did have three though!

Happy Birthday to Jill and Sarah!

We hope you both have wonderful birthdays and wish you all the best!

How HAPPY am I?

VERY VERY HAPPY!

Why you ask?

Well it would be no other reason than because David Cook won American Idol!

I liked both David A. and David C. but I prefered the latter much more!

I think he will do fabulous in his music career and he is definitely someone I will be putting on my IPod.

Good Luck to David Archuleta as well!

A NEW NANNY!

Here is the update!

I got a new nanny job! HOW EXCITING!

This was not the original family I interviewed with (they offered their position to someone else) but another one that I interviewed with and babysat for last night.

They have an adorable 8 month old boy named Brady and a sweet little 3.5 year old princess named Presley. Their family is very easy going and I feel very comfortable with them.

I will be making enough that if offered the position Spencer can work for a company called graphic products here in the Beaverton area!

I will be working longer days but it will so be worth it! The job at graphics products will work Spence from about 6:30 am to 3:30 pm which will allow him to take night classes and get back into school.

I am sad to leave all the families I sit for now as I have literally fell in love with all their kiddos but I just feel this is a real opportunity and that it is what heavenly father wants for us. I still however have a about a week and a half left with them so I am going to enjoy it to the fullest.

Until next time, I hope everyone is doing well!

Happy Mother's Day Momma!

I LOVE YOU MOMMA!

HAVE A WONDERFUL MOTHER'S DAY!

*Side Note* I gave her the scrapbook and our new sibling pic yesterday and she loved it! She was crying before she even got to the presents, just reading the cards! Mission accomplished!

We haven't taken a pic all together in about 7 yrs!

P.S.

I had my Nanny Interview tonight and I think it went pretty well.

They have an adorable little boy who is 2.5 and his name is Evan.

There is another girl being interviewed tomorrow so keep me in your prayers please!

I would really love to have this job as I think it would be ideal for us at this time so hopefully Heavenly Father agrees!

I will keep you posted!

DELICIOUS!

On the nights that we are feeling extra lazy we order food from a local delivery company.
d-dish.com. It gives us the chance to try some new food and we get to be lazy!

Tonight we tried Bugatti's!

I have been puky sick all week and haven't ate much and this morning I was telling Spence I wanted or rather needed something that had a savory taste! This was it!



My Super delicious Turkey Club Panini! Turkey, avacado, bacon, red onion, tomato, lettuce and dijon-mayo on a superb herb focacia bread!


This was a side of the focacia bread with Garlic and herb Olive oil for dipping!


Hand-cut French Fries! Surprisingly not greasy and perfectly salted!


Last but not least my not very hungry hubby's Pizza! Yes, we are kind of weird. He can buy pizza half off from work yet we order it full price from another restaurant. It was worth it though! This is called Joe's Pile of Protein Pizza Minus Onion. As you can see my not so hungry hubby ate the majority of the pizza in one sitting!


Our dinner was delectable! We recommend Buggati's and D-dish.com to everyone!

Another great one is Noho's Hawaiian Cafe!

It's Been So Long!

Hello Again!

I have missed blogging these past couple of weeks. For anyone who missed me here is a little look at what my life has been consumed by.

Scrapbooking! Lots of Scrapbooking! Its for Mother's Day!

Hope you enjoyed!

Anyhoo, There is not much else going on in our lives these days.

I have an interview on Friday for a full-time nanny position and I am very excited! They have a 2.5 yr old little boy. This transition would allow Spence to go back to school full-time in the fall and have a part-time job!

I was not even thinking about doing something different then my current situation because I love it but this family contacted me and they need some one to start in June. It will open up so many oppotunities for us! Yay!

Spence is just working at the time! Nothing else exciting for him.

Hope everyone is doing well!

Talk Soon!
