Moving Forward, Making Progress, and Having Fun

I really stink at catching up on everything, so for now, we're moving forward. That's what B is really trying to concentrate on now anyway. The past few weeks have been busy. B couldn't wait to get back into school. He started the Monday after we got home by going to his 2 choir classes for the week, then the next Monday, he was back full time. He's still trying to make up a few things from the time he was gone, plus trying to keep up with the current school work, plus going to therapy twice a week. Basically, he's exhausted. His teachers and school have been wonderful to work with and we appreciate all they're doing to help him. A few weeks ago, he tried out for All-State Jazz choir and had to have 44 points to make it in. Well, he only got 40, but considering he only had about a week to work on his solo, and he got a perfect score on singing a chromatic scale (which is dang hard!) I think he did pretty well!

Last weekend B decided that it would be a great idea to go to the BYU/SDSU game since it was the last home game. We also wanted to go visit K and spend some time together as a family since we hadn't done that in awhile. She looked great and it was so good to get to be together. The weather was amazing (although it didn't snow, much to B's dissatisfaction) and it was so fun to see the autumn leaves. BYU won the game and since it was the last game, the Seniors were given their Y blankets. Great day, great company, great trip. (Special thanks to the Stone's for their amazing hospitality!)

L has been involved in soccer again this year and her team is amazing! She's doing a great job and it's been nice to be able to go watch her play.

Clark and I have been called to serve in the Nursery on Sundays. Last week was our first and it was pretty fun. We have a few things to figure out, since we haven't had little ones in a few years, but it will get us ready to be grandparents someday! :)

Last night, B received a box of doughnuts with a message on the front. He's been invited to go to the Winter Formal Dance with one of his sweet, long-time friends, Kimberly Clark. He is thrilled!

We're anxiously awaiting Thanksgiving and celebrating everything we've been blessed with this year. K will be coming, so that will be nice. We are truly blessed!!!
