Zach Gets Bobcat!

Tonight at Cub Scout Pack Meeting, Zach received his Bobcat rank!  For the first time ever,  Angela and I got to go up and have Zach pin on mom’s first scouting pin!!!!  Yea!!!

Great work Zach!  He is really excited about Cub Scouts and can’t wait to do more and get his Wolf rank advancement.  It’s really fun to do the activities with him, and even though some are ridiculously easy (from an adult perspective now), he tackles each one with vigor and excitement!  🙂

Marching Band Banquet

Tonight we had the Metea Valley Marching Mustangs marching band banquet.  The kids had a great time, and as usual, had a great time laughing about all the inside joke stuff while all the parents sat there wondering what all the humor was about.  🙂  Angela and I helped out with setting up and serving the food.

General Conference – Exciting News!

This weekend was a VERY busy and VERY exciting!  A friend of ours went to the BYU vs. Utah State Game and saw Sarah.  He sent us a picture of her and Kristen Blackham together…

He said they looked like they were having a TON of fun and really enjoying themselves!

General Conference was this weekend as well and we had some BIG news!  The mission age for men was dropped to 18 and mission age for women was dropped to 19!  As soon as the session was over, we got a VERY excited call from Sarah saying that she’s going on a mission as soon as she can!  WOW!  That just surprised and floored us!  We are so excited for her!  She wants to go in January but we told her we would talk to her about it a little bit and she should pray about it before jumping to a date conclusion.  We feel she should wait until the end of the school year so she has a little more experience under her belt.  We’ll see!

We also had some friends over for breakfast and had a great time getting to know them better.  They are new to our ward.

We also were able to stream the Priesthood Session over the internet to our b uilding this year so none of us had to drive to the Stake Center!  Wahoo!!!  I was one of the folks in charge of that and so I was praying that nothing went wrong with my laptop during the entire time we were broadcasting.  🙂

Wow, what a weekend!
