Not So Slow News Day

Let me first explain the title of this blog. I have to watch the news everyday to see what is going on in the world. Many days it's the same news from the day before or they find some old story about cops or the mortgage crisis and so Marc and I have a standing joke that it must be a slow news day. A lot of days at our house are slow news days. So I forget to update my blog but my sister reminded me I needed to so here it goes. Sit down grab a diet coke and chocolate donut and keep your tray tables in the upright position and here we go.

Let's start first with Brandon. He is still going to school, and doing okay if he would just turn in his homework. It must be a boy thing. He still loves to tear apart and rebuilt nerf guns. He was ordained a teacher in January, it is really great to have the priesthood in my home even if it is only the Aaronic Priesthood. It's so hard to think my baby is now a teenager. No girlfriends yet but stay tuned to see if he gets one.

Marc can not wait til Spring to get out and ride the Harley. That is if he ever gets it put back together. Actually he and Bill have been working on it and fixing the leaks. And now he's decided to paint it since it's all tore apart. I am truly thankful for Bill who let him tear it apart in his garage not mine. He still is doing security at the new Quirrah Mtn. Temple in South Jordan and at the movie theater. He plays basketball on Friday's then comes home and complains about how old he is.

I guess I am next. I am still secretary in the Primary. I am sure many people wish I wasn't after last Sunday. I need to learn to keep my mouth shut,but I just can't when it comes to kids being rude to other kids. I let everyone know especially parents, I'll leave it at that, let's just say my mom would have been embarrassed at what I said. I'm still working (YEAH!), the mortgage field is so weird right now, I do a lot of loan proposals but not a whole lot of loans. I must admit I can't wait for spring to ride with Marc and watch some good high school softball.

Last but not least Johna !!! Her life is never a slow news day. Let's see where should I start, I know at the beginning but where is the beginning with her. Ok here is the college update. She applied to Standford, BYU, U of U, UVU, and Salt Lake Community College. And the answer from all of them YES!!!! we want you to be a student at our school. She was so excited and now the decision where to go but the bigger question is who will give me a scholarship to go to their school. Stay tuned for the decision. Softball tryouts are next week so she has been working hard for those. Speaking about work she is working again for Hapari Swimwear, so if you need a swimsuit go visit her. You can look at their suits on the web at www.hapari.com.

I guess that is our slow news day. I will post some new pictures soon, my camera died so I have not been taking any new ones.

Your blogs are so fun! I love getting caught up even though, having just read it, I am behind. As usual! Good for you for whatever you said in Primary! More things need to be said and less garbage tolerated. Hurray for you and don't apologize for standing for something, as President Hinckley said.
