My new shoes...

I was inspired by Annie and found me some new red shoes - quite brave for an "old woman". Actually, I have always been somewhat of a "shoe horse". I have owned both red cowboy boots and red snow boots. I have owned red, white, navy, brown, black patent leather, purple, pink, gold, and silver shoes. When we moved from our house on Janette Avenue to our house on Coley Circle - I probably owned at least 3-4 dozen pairs of shoes. We had quite a bit of help when we moved and someone put all of my shoes in "garbage bags" to move to the new house. Well, somehow the shoes ended up going to the dumps. Evan was never very fond of my red snow boots and as he tossed a garbage bag - the red boots fell out - he thought it was great I was finally getting rid of the red boots. He didn't know every pair of shoes I owned were gone. I have never quite replaced all of those shoes - but that's okay - they probably wouldn't even fit me now!!

Things are great in Rio Gallegos

Well - the time finally arrived - Preston had his first conversion/baptism in Rio Gallegos. I feel like we have come to know Sister Candelaria Cordova and the ups and down of committing and accepting the gospel. The church is true and the missionary program is awesome! Preston looks so happy....

Waiting. . .

Well I now can officially say that I've made it through my first college class, and let me tell you it was just like any other class I've ever been to. The teacher a little weird, but I'll give him a break cause his name is Doug (for short) and he likes to garden. So that's great, first class out of the way. . .next class is at 10:00, so what do I do between classes, go buy my book. . .nope, go walk around campus. . .nope, call mom, well I would expect for the whole my phone battery is going crazy and it has like no power, ahhh I know lets go to the library. OK so what do you do now??? Lets go mess around on the computer, look at the syllabus for the math class. . .ok that's great, now what. . .????

Did I mention that I look really good today, like this is how good I look, I"M NOT WEARING A T-SHIRT!!!!! I know you are way impressed, but what did you expect I am in college now, duh!!

Did I mention that all of the computers are really filling up now, good thing there's a lot of them!!

Well I guess I better get ready for my next class, its chemristy in the Science Building with Bastin!!!

The End Is Here

Its over. . .summer that is, I can't believe it!!! Yes today is my last day of summer vacation!!!! I guess it's time to go back to school, but it just seems so early!!! What will Parker do for the 3 days of summer without me there.

Well yesterday I was at softball pretty much all day, form 10:00 in the morning till around 2:00 in the after noon, poor Parker. When I first got out of my car in the garage I could here some sort of loud noise coming from the house. . .what could it be I thought to myself . . .nothing other than Parker playing his Saxophone, yes he was so bored without me that he was playing his saxophone, had memorized the scout oath, called to see if Cousin Willie was home for an HOUR straight, and had gone outside to play catch with himself, but had to come back in cause there was a killer bee after him!!!

Although I loved the whole trip I would have to say that I now love San Diego, it was soo nice the weather there was amazing!! Sea World was fun and the night shows were way cool. Then Disneyland was of course way fun, and really not all that crowded!!!
