Double duty

Well, here is the update on my new calling. They called me today to be the activity days advisor, however, they neglected to release me from the Beehives. Guess I will be doing double duty until who knows when...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY UNCLE KIP!

 
Happy Birthday Brandon! Thanks for being such a great uncle and friend. Hope that you have a great day! We love you!

The first day...and some overdue pics!

So, I know that I am a little late posting this, but Ethan started his first day of preschool yesterday. It was really weird only having one child at home, and more importantly, it was very quiet. Aiden is a much more independent child. Ethan was a bit nervous at first, but the teacher asked him to feed George the guppy, so then he was fine. And it was, "Bye mom, see ya later!" He has a fun teacher and I know he will learn a lot. Now, if we could just get that potty training thing down....thank goodness for an understanding teacher!



The first day of school. I can't believe it!




This is Ethan and his buddy down the street, Ty, posing for a picture before heading off to school together.





I love Ethan's face in this picture. He did not like this ride.




Aiden was happy as long as he had goldfish. He didn't get to ride a lot of the rides because he wouldn't sit still long enough.






This is Aiden sitting in the pilot trailer having lunch at my parents cabin property. It was raining on and off this day, but the boys had a lot of fun riding in rhino and the pilot. I will post more pictures another day.

Kicking and Screaming!

So, you know how it is...you are sitting around getting ready for church and all things are normal and then all of a sudden the phone rings and its someone from the church calling and you hesitate to pick up the phone because you wonder what they want you to do. Well, that happened to me today. For the last year and a half, I have been serving in the Young Women's as the beehive advisor, and I have had so much fun. I have a great group of 10 wonderful, beautiful girls that I have grown to love and learn from. Well, I found out that I am being released and put back into the primary as the activity days leader for the 8 year olds. I have serious mixed feelings about it. Actually, if I am honest, I have a bad attitude. I was having so much fun and loving every minute of it. Funny how you get hit upside the head with something new. I still have a couple of weeks, and I will soak in every second.
On another note, Ethan started his first day of preschool on Thursday, but Tuesday will be the big day because he will go by himself. I hope that he will have a lot of fun and learn alot! I will post pictures on Tuesday.
