Our next two Blotter missionaries...(South Korea and Peru, here they come) |
At the Blotter Family Reunion, Bear Lake. |
Whew!
We are having a heat wave around these parts, for sure. It was 99
today! They are also having restrictions with the canal so everything
seems like it's a little brown. But before we know it, it'll be freezing
and we'll be complaining about that. :) Life is good and we survived
Kids Camp this week. Barely. We had Hannah with us this past week and
she is a joy. I went with her and Sara and Grandma to a session at the
temple while she was here. She is very excited to be going on her
mission. 26 days and counting.
I sent a facebook message to who I assumed was Jeff Chipman's sister.
She sent me his e-mail back. Here it
is...jeffrey.chipman@myldsmail.net. Let me know if you want me to get
it to Elder Day. Technology. :) By the way, have you noticed any
difference with the use of technology yet? At Ward Council before I was
released the missionaries were there and said they expected to be
getting ipads in the mail soon. That may just be here in Utah. It's
exciting to see how change is inspired.
I read Andy's first e-mail from the MTC. It made me smile. He told so
many details! Every type of soda in the cafeteria, juice, chocolate
milk, his schedule down to the minute. And I laughed that he was saying
how hard of a time with Swedish he was having.....it was his 2nd day
there. Ha ha. He will be great. Oh, I got a new calling today! I'm not
suppose to say anything
yet. I'm suppose to wait for my BACKGROUND CHECK. I'm going to be a
Wolf leader in cub scouts. I'll be there for when Jed starts scouts in
December! I can't remember ever having a calling that I didn't have to
do anything on Sunday. At first I was thinking it was a bit of a downer
but now I'm thinking it will be GREAT.
I can't remember if we told you last week that Jed is signed up for
football! I was sure he was too young but a friend called and hoped Jed
would do it with him. He has been asking and asking to do it. It's the
first thing I've ever noticed him excited about. I tried to talk him out
of it. I told him how you would come home with bruises all down your
arm and it is hard and HOT and the more I told him, the more excited he
became. And he is really looking
more and more like you everyday. When Grayson was here he saw a picture
that he thought was Jed but was you.
Jenessa is leaving for a quite a trip to Ohio with the Dubanowich's. They
are taking her to Niagra Falls, COSI, the zoo, our old house and other fun
things. She will have a great time. She is getting all signed up for USU and ready to go. I
think she will take that school by storm. She has been attending the
local YSA ward and isn't loving it, but is giving it time.
Jacey has a
soccer tournament next weekend in Park City. So we'll be heading down
that way. OH, I TOTALLY FORGOT TO ASK! Did you have a baptism yesterday? I
thought of you and wondered if it happened! Need lot's of details of
that. And yesterday was the Blotter Family Reunion at Bear Lake. It was
fun but we all thought how cool it will be to have you there next year.
:) And Dad is training for Lotoja. He's looking pretty lean with all
the riding he's done.
Well, that's all for now. Love you so much and I have sure been praying for the people of Kitimat. Love, Mom
