Odds and Ends

Well school has started and Kelsi and Jolie are hard and heavy into school and homework. Laurie is kind of happy with her new job as a teachers aid for Patterson Elem. She works for the LD Dept. at the kindergarten age group. There is only 3 kids in the class but only 2 of them have been coming so that is good for her. By the time she is finished with her day she is so wiped out that she is just totally exhausted. On a good note for her, she was released from Primary (cheer, cheer, cheer) and was put in as a member of the activities committee in Relief Society. She is so glad to be out of Primary.

Jolie is back to going to gymnastics classes twice a week. She is progressing with her tumbling skills but not at the rate she would like. When she does her backhandspring, she is all smiles from ear to ear.

Kelsi is not only staying busy with homework but she is studying a new language. It is called the language of "like".??? I am sure all of you are asking what is the language of like? Well it is like this. The word "like" is used at least 3 to 4 times in a single sentence and the sentence is only ten words long. So it is like all I hear when she is talking to me is like, like, like..... when does it end! I have to give some credit though, she is really trying to be a good kid this year at school. She also auditioned for seating for orchestra and got first chair second violin. She is not to happy about it but she didnt practice all summer long so she probably got what she deserves.

Trent is still working with Cannon and Wendt as a delivery person. He really likes his job and hopes to be able to continue with them when this job slows down. We got him signed up for a couple of classes at Red Mountain Community so he can keep his mind fresh. He is still working towards a mission and hopes to be able to go with- in a year or so.

As for me, I have been to a funeral, still continuing to work on FIL boat, still enjoying Primary, being chuefer for the younger kids, and FINALLY getting my Temple reccommend. Whew!!! I have said that all in one breath!!! lol. I have missed going to the Temple. Work is still keeping me busy with all of its games and players. Well have rambled on long enough, will update everyone with other odds and ends as they come along. have a nice week every one!!!!.
