TGIF

It's Friday AND a 3 day weekend!! Hallelujah!! My students are getting on my last nerve today. Sometimes I wonder if I really have patience enough to teach my sewing class. If there is one thing I can't stand, it's a student who wont read the directions, and expects me to stand there and tell them what to do. Arrrghh.......Read the directions please!!

I've been watching the newsclips on my computer all morning, and wondering how I feel about John McCains new running mate: Sarah Palin. I can't quite understand having 5 children, one of which has downs,and is 5 months old, and trying to be VP also. It will be tough. ( Besides, she younger than me........I'm not sure how I feel about being older than a VP running mate)

The weather is supposed to change this weekend. I'm not looking forward to the cold coming. They even said there might be snow at 8000 feet. We are at 7000, so if we camp this weekend we could get some. Oh well, we have camped in the snow before.

We bought a truck for John Waynes woodhaul business, it is older, but big and burly, so it will work well for that. I like it, it has four doors and lots of room, really beefy, and now maybe I can help him more with the wood.

I'm hoping to make some more Elderberry muffins tonight, and I'm going to try to make up a recipe for Elderberry cookies. I want to enter them in the cookie contest for The Taste of Home Show next Sat. So wish me luck!!! If I win, it involves a trip!!!

The Novice blogger

So this is my first attempt at blogging. I'm hoping this can become a place for friends and family to be able to keep up with our lives.Last night we had a barbecue at my music leaders home, it was so much fun! Everyone one of my presidency showed up with their families. I was so excited for them all to be there. I love each and every one of them so much, they each contribute their own unique things to our Primary. It felt good to get together as friends and bond. My secretary, Jodi, was showing me her blog and how you can have it made into a bound journal. It was really neat, so thanks to her I am starting this blog.....Thanks Jodi!!!Life is good. Boney Chick moved back this summer and has been working for the Forest Service, it has been so fun to have her home again. Westing House moved back 2 weeks ago, he got a job working in a lab for a mine. It is close to home here, so for now he is staying here. It's so nice to have our house full again. The Caboose started school last Tuesday and he is loving being a 5th grader. I'm not liking it so much!! I hate to see him grow up. He is such a good boy and is always happy.We are so blessed to be able to live in this beautiful mountain town, I have to thank my Heavenly Father each day for it.
