Well, it is official, we are back online. It was strange being without internet for so long. It was kind of nice in some regards, but mostly just annoying. It is amazing how dependent we all have been on various tools in our lives. Often times I tried to get a phone number, check my email or just look for information and just couldn’t. But we are back, and there is a lot to update about.
I was called as the Young Men’s sports coach and assistant (to the) adviser in the Priests Quorum. What that means is I teach lessons once in a while (about once a month) and get to play volleyball and bball with the young men. Doesn’t get much better then that. There are about 12 – 15 priests, and they are all pretty fun to be with. I never thought I would be “that old adult” but I guess we all have to grow up at some point. In our stake (and region) they still have really good participation in the sports program for the youth. They won the stake tournament last week and are now going on to play in a regional tournament tomorrow and the following week. It is neat to see the sports program work like it is supposed to, unlike back in Greeley.
Koby is enjoying school and learning a lot. We don’t get a lot out of him after school other then “it was good”, but he is learning how to read and catching on when he sees words throughout the day that he recognizes.
We are still busy with raising the kids and it has been an adjustment in a few areas of our lives, but it has been a good adjustment. We miss my family and are glad to be near Cami’s family. We are excited to go home for Christmas and see family and friends.
Work is going really good. It is challenging but fun. I was excited because I was able to play basketball Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings at 6:00, but recently found out I have to be ar work from 6:30 am to 3:30 pm. I service accounts in Michigan and they are east coast time, so I am there during their business hours. What this means is no more bball in the morning. Oh well, at least I am home from work about the same time Koby is off of school.
Well, there is much more to write about, but not time now. We are getting ready for dinner and the boys need help with Webkinz.
Visitors are always welcome!
