A Bit of a Blur

I would like to update you all on what's up, but I really can't remember. The days and weeks sort of run together. I know that Halloween was fun. We went to a few dance parties. I took Andrea and some of her friends around their neighborhood. School has been life-consuming, but great at the same time. I wrote my very first lesson plan in place of a paper for my world history class. That was really fun. I much prefer lesson plans to papers! Teresa and I have found ourselves in an awesome ward. There is always something going on, but I need to exercise a little more restraint so my grades will be better. I also haven't been getting all of the sleep I need, but that is all my own fault. My goal this week is to be in bed at 10 pm every weekday. It is so hard, but I am determined.

So yesterday I visited my parents' ward because it was Andrea's last primary program. She did marvelous! It was fun to see all my favorite kids again. My friend Melissa asked me to help teach her primary class since her fellow teacher wasn't there. It was so fun to teach in primary again! I love my calling now, but primary is a special place. Right now I'm a home evening group leader or an FHE Mom. My ward divided the groups up huge, so there are about 40 people in my group. We usually get about 10 to 15 people at any given activity. I'm not very good at planning ahead, so it takes all my creativity to come up with activities.

Here's a picture of the group having a Rain Gutter Sundae.

Tonight we are going to make nativities and then we'll enjoy Tim Tam Slams.
