The Yockey Family Update

Let's see, where to being? Where I left off, I guess.
At the end of July we took Jake to SeaWorld. It was way too crowded and much too hot but Jake had a blast. He fed the dolphins, watched Shamu do his tricks, saw the horsies and alligators and got bit on his finger by a shark :) And then we ended the day playing in the wave pool. We were exhausted.
That weekend was also special because Dustin and Alex got engaged. We are so excited to have a new sister and can't wait for the big day. Jake is going to be the cutest little ring-bearer there ever was.

















When we got back from San Antonio I began a new and exciting job adventure with Stella
& Dot. I am an independent personal jewelry stylist with them and would love to bring my trunk show to anyone who is interested. We have fabulous everyday pieces as well as beautiful statement pieces. Check out my website: www.stelladot.com/bethyockey
As soon as I started this exciting adventure I got the phone call I had been waiting for ALL summer. I was offered a 4th grade position with Velasquez Elementary. School starts Monday and I couldn't be more excited. I'll be teaching Math, Science and Social Studies to 40 9 year olds...how cool!!!
Trey has been studying really hard for his EO (Engine Operator) test which is this Thursday...say a quick prayer that he does his best.
A few weeks ago, all three of us were very sick. Jake had strep, Trey had an upper respiratory infection and I had something that led to pneumonia. Needless to say, were out of commission for an entire week. It feels so good to feel good :)
That's about all that's been going on with us that's worth writing about. I promise to keep you all updated more often. Oh ya, Jake turns 2 on Saturday....where has the time gone. I cry every time I think about it.
Hope all is well with all of you!!!!!!

Sorry...Sorry...Sorry

I know I haven't been posting lately but I have good reason. The main reason, our computer got a virus and has been in the shop for 3 weeks. We just got it back. Another reason, I got a REAL job and have been pretty busy. And lastly, my entire family has been VERY sick in bed all week. We are feeling better now so I will try to catch you all up on our lives this week. Bare with me, it may take awhile.
