Last Day of Vacation Break

Well, today is our last day of vacation. This break always goes so quickly. We have had so much fun! We even got a few things done. We managed to finish the room down stairs and clean up a little downstairs. (miracle, really) Keiths sister and her family have come for a week and we are having a good time with them. They fly home tomorrow morning (Keith gets to take them to the airport at 5am!!) While they were here, Keiths sister helped me can 80lbs of chicken! It was so much work, but so nice to have all of that chicken done. We have even been doing some fun stuff as well. We have stayed up late talking and playing games. We went to the air force museum a couple of days ago. Here are some pictures of that:









For New Years Eve, Keiths other sister, Karen, came with her family. We had a good time that night. We did a lot of dance, dance, revolution and she brought her wii so the kids could perfect their bowling and tennis skills. I think everyone had a good time.

I also got called to be a primary teacher yesterday. It was kind of anti-climatic going in to meet with the bishopric. I've been teaching primary for a year and a half now (except a couple of weeks) but now its official. I actually think it will be a good thing because I can have the same class and I can know before Saturday night or Sunday morning that Im teaching. I've been a substitute that just floats around the primary. I will be teaching the CTR 5 class. They are pretty cute but have the attention span of a gnat. I am still the Stake Humanitarian Specialist (or stake nag). Things for that will get crazy at the end of this year, but for now, Im content with my primary calling.

Well, good bye vacation. We will play games today and tomorrow brings school, bathrooms, and loads and loads and loads of laundry.

Real life, here we come....
