One down...two to go!

As we were getting our talks ready for Sunday, Mike said that he felt we had 3 big stress things to get through in the next month. Speaking in Sacrament was one of them and it's done! We did well. There was a lot going on that Sunday. A report from a Young Woman about girls camp, a couple that was moving gave their testimonies, plus the youth speaker and a special musical number by the Young Women. So, we actually went over the scheduled time, instead of under! Usually when we speak together, I give a 2.5 minute youth talk and leave Mike with 40 minutes to fill! I worked really hard this time and gave a 15-20 minute talk and he had only 10 minutes left! He shortened his talk and we got out about 5 minutes late. BUT! We are DONE! and we had a lot on nice comments from ward members!

We were also talking the other day about something Brandon said...and I just need to document it. When we were at Lake Powell, one of the bosses (I think it was Kevin) was telling Brandon that he needed to keep his life jacket on because the police will come get us if he doesn't wear it on the boat.
Brandon didn't miss a beat and said to Kevin, 'Police not have boats!'
Smart kid....

It was so GREAT seeing you & Mike last night. I wish we could have spent more time together so we'll have to go out just us soon. You really pulled off a wonderful reunion and you should be proud. Thanks for all of your hard work--everyone had an amazing time. Love your darling blog!
