My New Calling


I got called yesterday to be a Relief Society instructor and the story is kinda cool so I thought I'd share it:
I was sitting in Sac. Meeting next to Christie Bessinger. The bishop announced new callings and Christie was called to be a R.S. Instructor. When she sat down she said how nervous she was because she doesn't get along with girls that well. I said, "Really? I always thought that would a calling I would like to have."
Well, as I'm sitting in Sunday School Casey came and pulled me out of class to see the Bishop. I thought he just wanted to do the Temple Reccomend interview because we're doing baptisms on Friday. But when I got in there after the reccomend he told me I had a new calling. And I was flabbergasted when he told me what it was. I guess that Lord really is always listening, huh? So be careful what you say peeps! haha

Lions, and Tigers, and Boydstons! Oh My!











So the B's were here about a month after they promised. lol But they did arrive finally so that's what counts. I decided to forgive their delay because their Grandpa was having health problems. Gracious aren't I? haha

We had a birthday party for Shelby complete with handmade banner, presents, and a tweety bird PINK cake (heheehe). He seemed to enjoy it even though he's not one for birthdays...or so he says. Who isn't into birthdays? The entire day is about YOU, who wouldn't love that?? haha And he certainly should because he always has to be the center of attention or he sulks. lol But in exchange for the party and his gift, which he loved, I got my car worked on and he sat on my icy feet to keep them warm, so it all worked out well for me. haha
Bryce was a little jealous because we didn't throw one for him in Sept. but we'll make up for it this Sept. althoough he'll probably be on his mission.

Oh, the B's wanted us to tell ya'll that they're coming to stay with us for a week in June so they'll have time to visit you guys then. Anyway I thought I'd post some pics for you guys to see. Isn't the one of Papa and I super cute? lol
