Catching Up...

I really really really need to do better about updating this blog.  I follow several blogs that are updated daily, some twice a week, some once a week, but not very many that only update once every couple months!  I'm that person and no wonder i don't get many responses....I never post! LOL

It is one week after my anniversary and Isaac and I couldn't be better!  We each have new callings.  Well, mine I've had a few a couple months.  I'm the activity coordinator for RS.  Isaac is now in Young Men's.  He's the counselor over the Deacons quorum.  I think he's going to be fabulous in this calling.  Plus, he's serving with a good friend of ours. 

Jacob finds out tomorrow whether or not he made it to "call backs" for the musical tryouts last week.  He tried out for Captain Hook in Peter Pan.  If he gets this part, I promise to work more with him on matching pitch.  I know now that he is not completely tone deaf.  How did I figure this out?  He can hear music and go pick out the melody and sometime harmony on the piano!  Tone deaf people cannot do that!

Erica has become the little party planner for her best friend's birthday party.  Shiwei is no longer considered a guest in our home.  As a matter of fact, this weekend I explained that if she came over she too would have to help clean!  And she did!  She is not a member of our church, but she has been so frequently with us that many of the girls invited to the party are from church (plus a few from school).  I'm so glad Erica and Shiwei are friends.  I had a friend like this when I was young (Kim).  We were permanent fixtures in each other's homes and wound up going to church together too.  Recently, she and I have connected again via Facebook and even exchanged Christmas cards.

Speaking of being younger.... My 20 year high school reunion is this SUMMER!!  YIKES!  Has it really been 20 years since I was in High School?  I look back over the past 20 years and I think of all the roads that I could've gone down and am so happy that this is the one I chose. 

Happy Monday everyone!  Love to all!  And I didn't mention any Mikayla stories on this post....but honestly, with all she says, she just might deserve her very own post! : )
