Not only am I sad to say goodbye to my friends, neighbors and ward, but I am also so very very sad that I no longer get to teach my classes at Fitness Works. It's such a bummer that Payson doesn't have the "Water-in-Motion" program at any of the gyms. All my many hours of training and learning new choreography now comes to an end, but most of all I am going to miss my dedicated members who have been such a wonderful part of my life this last year. I love walking into class and being greeted with hugs, hellos and getting all the updates on their lives. I was dreading the day when I would have to tell them I was leaving. When I finally did tell them the bitter/sweet news they all told me to tell my husband to either commute or leave me behind...hahaha...gotta love them!
So, the other day a bunch of the ladies from class organized a "Going Away Lunch". We all met at Crackers and had such a fun time. I got some wonderful gifts and gift cards and it made me realize how much this "job" means to me. I don't really think of it as a job because I love it so much. It was a sad week this week because I taught my final 3 classes. On Thursday, the members had me in tears as they were crying through our last few tracks and giving me hugs afterwards. I am going to miss them so much. I'm not sure what exactly Payson has in store for me, but hey I just might end up being an instructor up there or finding something totally new and fun...I guess I'm just going to enjoy this journey in life and hope for more great things to come.
I totally didnt' get a picture with everyone that came to lunch because I spaced it, but here are a few of my "favorite" participants and me.
I realized I had no pics of me teaching, so here I am on my last day...hahaha love the "action" shots.

Donnie you look Amazing!! Seriously such motivation for me!!
I'm sure so many people will be sad to see your family leave.
I hate goodbyes...but I've had to get pretty good at it living in student housing!
Good luck with the packing!
