I got these pictures from Pam Robert’s today. Hopefully you found these treats when you got home. I’ll explain how it all came about when we talk on Monday. Hope you had an awesome day!
Dear Calder.... I'm finally getting to my letter. Whoa...it's been a busy last week for me, but first....the pics: Pic #1- the newly engaged couple. We are fans of Kylie. And Eth is such a great one. I know this process has been really difficult for Chad and Cec, but she's a keeper. I think it's just tricky to pave the path and Ethan is just a bit of a spacer and so he's really put Cecily in some awkward situations. I think hearts can be healed and hurts can be mended, but it's going to take some time to let go and give it to their Savior. They will all get there. Eth and Kylie came over for hot coco before they walked to the park. I felt so honored that we were included like that. This pic was taken when they returned. So fun. So happy. I'm excited. Pic #2 - cute little basketball friends. Jane and Sawyer are going waaay out of their comfort zones and playing jr jazz together. I'm super proud of them - especially Jane. Going out of he...
Well, today is our 23rd anniversary! I want to call it my golden anniversary but that's the 50th anniversary. I was married when I was 23 year old and now I have been married for 23 years. So this anniversary marks the same number of years that I was single and married. I think that's pretty cool. It doesn't have a name, so I'm thinking of one. The week FLEW by! I was put in charge of the Fall Festival/Youth Fundraiser for our ward that was on Saturday. It was SO. MUCH. WORK! Glad to have it over. Lots of texting and coordinating and the worst part was we had tons of rain right up until it started (it was going to be outside). So, a little stressful. All in all, I think everyone enjoyed the ward activity. But in true D8th ward form, hardly anyone came. Seriously. It was a bummer. I mean, we had a ton of kids and youth but the parents and empty nesters didn't come. We have such a strange ward. But we had some total wins with people coming who don...
I've been thinking about you and transfers so much today! Today in our 5th hour meeting, the bishop held a combined YM/YW meeting via zoom. It was really well done. We talked about goals among other things. One subject that the bishop really did well on was the topic "what advice would I give to my younger self." He'd touched basis with many of the youth to get their input and then called on them in the meeting. In regards to transfers, I would share McKay's advice that he gave at the meeting "things usually work out for the best." Or would you rather have Henry's advice, which was "go to the gym to get swoll!" :) Luckily he changed that at the last minute to be kind to everyone. Much better, in my opinion! That goofball! Today was fast Sunday for our ward. Next week is Stake Conference, hence fast Sunday. It was a great day. President Jackson visited our ward and bore his testimony. He talked about missionary work. It was a great...
