Fun, New Things

It's pretty bad when you can't remember what's been going on so you have to look it up in your phone. I have learned how to play Futsal (indoor soccer). Our ward has a team. I even invested in shin guards and soccer socks. It is a good work out and one day I hope to be good at it. It is fun to learn though. I'm also going to play on a softball team which I'm pretty excited about! A lady in my ward invited me. I don't know how she knew I played, but it'll give me a chance to get to know new people here. Branden and I each took part of our tax return and man did I go on a shopping spree. I'm trying to look more girly. I also went to an open house and bought some necklaces and earrings. Now I'm trying to save up to finish out my ward robe. I was on the committee for the Relief Society Birthday Party so I've been working on that the past few weeks. It was a lot of fun, but I'm sure glad it's over! For our Primary activity we're having a Film Festival and each class was supposed to make a video of a story from the Book of Mormon. I got mine finished this week and I just sit and laugh. If I remember I'll post it on here before I end my rambling. I look forward to seeing everyone's videos. Other than that for me, it's been yard work and playing with the kids than come to our house. According to the neighbors, I may have 2 more kids that want to join our family. I almost forgot, last weekend I went to girl's night. We went to the Pizza and Pasta Factory. It was fun to get to know different ladies. Six of us rode in my neighbor's suburban and it was a blast!


Braxten has started soccer. He had his first game last week and did a great job. I forgot the camera though, so no pictures sorry! We've had a few practices and I'm the Assistant Coach. It's a lot more fun to watch him this year because he's a lot more aggressive and doesn't sit down every few minutes. He'll also start t-ball here in the next 3 weeks. He is growing and learning a lot! He also got 100% on his first two sight word spelling tests. I couldn't be more proud of him!

Branden has been all over the place this month. He went to Salt Lake at the first of the month. He had Scout Camp at the Coral Pink Sand Dunes a couple weekends ago. He also went to Pleasant Grove this past week for meetings. I didn't know he'd travel this much, but it's okay. He gets to learn new things and have fun! He helped with the scouting for food drive yesterday in the cold wind and fixed the sprinkling system.

We've had a few friends come down to see us and it's been a lot of fun to see them! We're so grateful for great friends and family!
