The Snow of 2013

Somehow we lucked out and got snow on the ground when nobody else in the surrounding area did. The Hubs was like a kid on Christmas...he loves snow. He was thrilled that our little nugget got to experience snow in her first year. We had some visitors that day too! I guess they didn't want us hogging all of the white stuff!




Relief Society

I am currently serving as the second counselor in th  Relief Society presidency in our church. Relief Society is the women´s organization for those of you who don't speak Mormon! It's still new to me and I'm figuring things out as I go...but I am enjoying  myself. My main responsibility is to be over the activities but I pitch in wherever needed. It has given me many opportunities to serve and helped me get acquainted with the difference  families  that we attend church with. I am also required  to teach once per quarter. This doesn't sound like much, but I am not looking forward to it! Maybe this will help me get over my fear of teaching adults once and for all...here's to hoping. :)
