Juggling

I am so excited. I just got a new calling last Sunday and I'm back in the Primary Presidency. I love primary. I don't think that there is anywhere else that you can feel the spirit so strongly as you teach the children gospel principles, and the music is amazing! I still get to help with girls camp. I'm really glad because I've always wanted to work with the Y.W. Camp will be a blast. I'm just having a little bit of a hard time juggling things around right now. I know it will get easier as I get my schedule down. (And work with Scott's schedule).

Easter Surprise







Scott and I were talking last week and decided it was time for us to go on a family vacation. We haven't been on one for almost 5 years. We have been putting it off because we needed to save all our extra money for adoption. We were not sure where we were going to go. We thought of a few places and then we decided to go online and look at Disney Land. Once we got online that's where I wanted to go. I love Disney Land. We decided to not tell Tyler and surprise him. On Easter morning Ty woke up and did his usual Easter things, then we had him look in his Easter basket and there was a letter for him that said he needed to get ready for the day and go to the park for the rest of his gift. He get ready and we got in the car to go to the park. When we got to the park we gave him another card that told him that he was going to Disney Land. He didn't believe it at first. He finally believed us when we started driving to Disney Land. It was so good to get away as a family and have fun. Tyler loved all the rides. His favorite was California Screaming. We had the time of our lives!

Conference



We were lucky enough to go to the Saturday Afternoon session of conference. We had four tickets so Tyler wanted to bring his cousin Kaitlyn with him. I bought them both little notebooks and pencils so they could take notes on the speakers and write down their feelings. We all loved being there. It was awesome.

Play = Sleeping Beauty


Tyler has been waiting since kindergarten to be in the 3rd grade play. It started when a neighbor of ours was in the play Little Mermaid and Tyler saw him play Sebastian. He wanted to be in a play so bad after that. The 3rd Grade school play this year was great. All of the kids did so good. The teachers are amazing. They worked so hard at writing the script and teaching all the kids their parts and songs. Tyler tried out and got the role of King Stephan (Aurora's Dad). He had a lot of fun practicing with his friends. It seems like most of his friends had lead roles with him. His best friend Azzy had the part of the Fairy Fauna. They had a great time and it was so much fun watching them. I think that we found something else that he loves to do.
