That is all I should say for this blog. Yes it was almost a year ago when I last blogged, so I don't even know how to fit EVERYTHING into this little post.
My life since June 22, 2009, has had the MOST life changing experiences within that time period, than ever in my life! From the day I got hired to teach last June, my life has become a hurricane full of life lessons that have made me into the bigger person I am today, on May 7, 2010!
How do I start? Where do I start?
I am just about DONE with my first year of teaching! Oh man! Who would have thought this day would EVER come! This year has been one full of challenges, tears, sweat, blood, throw up (not on my part.. just from the third graders) and so many other things that have helped me grow and learn to be a better teacher. I had many many hard days, but ya know, I was trained well for this job, and I knew I could handle it. I LOVE my class.. Okay I should say I have a love/hate relationship with them. But I am going to have such a hard time saying goodbye to them over the summer. They have grown SO much and I am going to miss all 27 of them! My fabulous faculty, my family and friends have all been so good with supporting me through this whole year, I could not have made it without any of them!
Last summer was a quick one as I enjoyed it before I began teaching. One of the highlights from the summer was our trip to California. Steph Crystal and I took a road trip out to Sacramento and San Fran and we had an AMAZING time! So fun!
During the school year I enjoyed so many new things, like making a new group of friends in the SLC, still partying with my friends from Logan, and even started going down to Provo to play with friends down there. This all involves the new car I also purchased, my little ES 300 Lexus. I have officially put over 10,000 miles on this baby since I purchased it in September.. Ha! Don't judge. I am just always on the go, and can't slow down. My mom says I need to stop sometime and breathe, but it is not in my nature to do such a thing. I have definitely continued my social life from college to the afterlife :) And it is still going strong!
Other big events that happened.. Crystal left on her mission to Brazil last fall (She is doing fantastic! Only 11 months left!), I had MANY MANY concerts and shows that I went to, including another one of my favorites, Jack's Mannequin. I saw The Audition a few times and will continue to be their biggest groupie. Many of my bands came out with some GREAT albums as well including Paramore, Cartel, The Rocket Summer, Mayday Parade... and the list goes on!

Steph and I took our spring break trip to Arizona in March and had a fantastic time driving through the boring desert to go to the Grand Canyon and to visit our dear old roommate, Loni in Tucson. It was so good to see our little Lon again in her new life with her husband!
The family is still awesome, I mean, we ARE the Rindlisbachers. Living at home has definitely been a change, but mom will tell you I don't even live here, since I am never home. Little sister is in high school, and it is just so fun for me to reminisce on the good old days of '04-'05. (Speaking of which, I am currently planning our Five Year Reunion for high school.. ha!) Alex and Evelyn bought them a fun little house just down the street from us, and little Austin is almost 2 years old! My other half is still in Logan just living up that college life. He is making up for my absence now that I am gone. And the parentals are still the parentals.

Cousin Jinger is engaged! She will be getting married in June.
Other than that, if I missed something, let the pictures tell the stories. Boys will be boys in my life, I have built many more relationships with them, and I have many attractive guy friends, so if anyone wants me to hook em up, I can do that! As for me, I am still enjoying life and the MANY blessings I have!
Thanks for all who have had such a fabulous impact in my life and for those who have helped me through so much! You guys rock.

Steph's graduation from Utah State. She was my cute little Valedictorian.. So precious.
Christmastime with the siblings, Dec. 2009.
The girls reunited from high school. Janaca was prego at the time, and now she has an adorable little baby girl named Ashlyn.
The Sisters! Kenzie and Lindsey Lawlor, my other sisters in life. Kenz is now on her mission in Nebraska. Love them both.
Days of '47 Pageant.. Yes, I was in it this year. It was an experience that I will probably never do again.. Ha
