I loved Stake Conference today. I sat next to an older gentleman from my ward (the same one who came to dinner when I hosted the missionaries) and we both cried the entire time the Primary sang a medly--which lasted about 25 minutes. They had a cellist, two violins, 3 soloists and they signed two songs. We had a verse of I am a Child of God in Spanish by that branches 11 kids! There were about 125 kids, all Sr. Primary. This was only 4 wards from my stake. And my ward, well, they contributed the skyrocketing number of 4. :) I love my small ward family where each of us does all we can to help the ward move forward. Everyone has tons and tons of callings, cause that's what they need.
Today we had a CS Committee meeting and it was so fun. We spent at least 1/2 of the time laughing and playing with the theme - Abracadabra - magic kits for the kids and planning the AOL ceremony for our Weebs. We are going to video tape messages from the parents to their sons and play them as they reach the troop across the bridge. We're going to give them a cd and an arrow at the end of the night.
Ok, I gotta run, a singles fireside tonight which to be perfectly honest - I would not go except last night I agreed to go and so now I must, because they are waiting for me. Ah....boo.
Hugs,
Sharon

Yay about your loans. I feel like the end is in sight for me. It is too bad that Tyler's parents paid for all his schooling, because now I look like the slug who is slowing us down. Then again, I am glad that his parents paid or we would have even more loans. But since I met you at school, I have no complaints.
I'm glad you enjoyed Stake Conference as well, and I hope you are feeling better.
