Swamped

Yep I know I am a BIG slacker with this blog, but if you only knew what I have been up to you would understand. For one thing work is super time consuming, now that the semester is well on its way we see less students so you think I would be board… nope. I have picked up more projects to work on so in that aspect I am very busy trying to get ahead. My motto at the moment is “Don’t stop swimming or I might drown”. The good news is we were able to hire some really amazing work study students that have jumped right in and have been a BIG help thus far. We really lucked out!

Over the past few weeks after work I have had several opportunities to serve others. We have on occasion different families from our ward join us for FHE or dinner. It has been wonderful to get to know these amazing families better. About a week ago Stewart and I went and hung out with Wendy. We went to the library in Chubbuck and played a few games. We played a game names “Rimmikub” it is a game of skill. I just so happened to win two times out of three. I however was informed when I was walking Wendy to the door that she let me win. Too funny! I had the chance to go visiting teaching, my companion and I stopped by a sister who has not been to church since she moved to Pocatello 3 years ago and invited her to come. I think she may start coming. It was a good experience. Another fun thing that Stewart and I are packing into our week is… Country Swing Dance! Yep you read it right, I weaseled my hubby into taking Country Swing dance lessons with me. Our first class was last week; we are by far the youngest couple in the class. But none the less we had fun and hope to have tons more fun. Well I guess that’s all I have for now. Here’s to the weekend ahead… may you be able to do all you hoped to do, and of course enjoy the three day weekend coming up. Ciao
P.S. For the lucky three who signed up for the pay it forward exchange I am so excited. I already have ideas forming in my head as for what to do for you. This will be so fun!

Hi Becky Lou!! Sara would like an invite to your blog if you don't mind. cutiepiesarag@hotmail.com Tami is coming to town the middle of march and we thought it would be fun to get all the roomies together one last time before you moved. Sound good? I'll keep you posted! :)

Good to know you are still swimming and not drowning, I was begining to wonder what was up? I am so jealous that you are taking dance lessons with your husband, that is on my list of "I would like to do in my life time" Doug is working on the list and has done pretty good, but I think he comes to the dancing one and skips it. So next time your at class, kick up an extra twirl for me!

Yeehaw!!! That sounds like fun- Ted would never go for it though! We need to get together and do something- when you have a free moment in your schedule. Kaden keeps asking about Stewart and Becky!
