So...I got a new calling, and I am SO excited for it! For the past 7 months I have been the relief society and ward chorister..You know, the person who stands up in front of everyone and leads music. Let's just say that wasn't my most favorite calling in the world, but I did it..(Okay, it wasn't horrible, I just hate singing in front of people!) But...anyway..last week after church Greg and I went to the clerk's office (he's the ward clerk) where the phone was ringing. He answered it, then when he went to go get the person it was for, he told me to hold the door. Not thinking anything of it, I did. (The door didn't stay open by itself...) So I'm holding it, and the bishopric gets there, and Greg comes back and we're just hanging out. i walk out, getting read to leave, and the 1st counselor comes up and says, "are you waiting to meet with Bishop?" I say, "No, I don't think so." And he says, "well, we need to talk to you, so come on in." I didn't really know why he wanted to talk to me. I thought it was just about the music and stuff because i was supposed to be getting new organists and musical numbers and such...but no, it was a new calling, and I am now the Young Women's 1st Counselor, and I am SOOOO EXCITED! I don't really know much of the youth in our ward, so it'll be fun getting to know them, and to be in young womens again...I am excited. i just hope I do a good job! The leaders I have to work with, as far as I know, are all fun people, so it should be alright...My first activity is on Saturday, and we're going boating (which I've never done before) so that should be pretty fun! Anyway, just wanted to share my good news with everyone...
oh...and here is a video that is SO FUNNY. i had to post it! Greg and I watched it the other night, and it was hilarious! It's from MadTV....funny funny, enjoy if you feel like watching it!

Scrapbooking...
So, remember the good ol' days when scrapbooking was the BIG THING!? Okay, so maybe it still is, just not for me! However, as I sat on my computer today, bored out of my mind, I decided that I wanted to start scrapbooking again. I have TONS of paper and stickers and all the fun scrapbooking things, so why not do it? Then....I realized that it is SO MUCH WORK! I would have to take everything out of their containers, which are strategically hidden under this desk. Second, I don't really have a place to scrapbook. The kitchen is a mess, so I can't do it on a table, and when I do it on the floor, there is no room to walk through the living room, and I don't have a spare room I can take over and throw all my supplies in. (Can't wait to someday have a bigger house and a real office...lol) So, I'm sure many of you can see my dilemma, right? So then, I started thinking about digital scrapbooking. Now there is an idea. Considering ALL my pictures on on CD's and it's too big of a pain to get them developed. (Either too big of a pain, or I'm just too lazy to do it...) But then there's the whole searching the internet for the right papers/kits/etc to go with my pictures, and lets be honest, who really has the time. Okay, so I do, but here's my next problem. I search these sites all day long and find about a MILLION kits that I like, and have downloaded. Then I have to go through each one so i can remember what they are. It's just a pain. So here I am stuck...I don't know whether I should do it old school, since I have a ton of supplies still, or become a digital scrapbooker...What do I do with all that old paper? I have a LOT of it..and i don't want it to go to waste....hmm...alright, so pretty much I just needed to blog about something, and that was on my mind...Any suggestions, let me know! Lol..Does anyone still scrapbook out there? Really...I want to know!

Last one...I promise!! (Maybe!)
Okay, so I knew there was one more of her by the red wall, but I saved it in a different file, but I found it and had to share, because this one is really my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE!!! Hopefully this will be my last post. Maybe I'll just leave the link to the online gallery...I have this problem where I HATE throwing pictures away. Even if they are way blurry, or her eyes or closed. I just can't do it...Can I just say how much I love digital photography...You can take hundreds of pictures, throw some away, and still have PLENTY left over... okay...to the picture...here it is!

Okay, I couldn't help it. I LOVE these ones too, so I thought I would share..(I have a problem picking out just a few...) Be sure to check out my photography blog for even MORE!!!

Morgan...
So, I posted some on my photo blog, but I decided to post them on here too, since most people look here. :) This is Morgan. I used to work with Morgan at Kmart, and she is the one who told me about the volleyball coaching job at Logan High. I love Morgan! Can I just tell you. She is so happy and funny and so pretty and an AWESOME volleyball player. She is headed to Dixie on a volleyball scholarship. She graduated 2008, but she never had senior pics done, so we thought we would spend some time taking pics. We spent a lot of time, actually, and took a LOT of pictures. It was a blast. I couldn't decide which pics to use, so there are a lot. There are a lot more too. I will most more on my photo blog when I get them all edited. Enjoy, and let me know what you think.
