School has begun!

Dave had his first week of school and oh my, I fear that we are being trained to live without him - he was gone a lot, but when he was home he seemed very happy, though tired, and always had a fun story to tell about the things going on with school. They had an activity every night that he had to be to because he is on exec council, one night it was mud volleyball at the river, one night it was slip and slide kickball, one night an open swim for the high school and another was a barbecue for the new students. He had council meetings at lunch and after school, so he was very busy. The week before school started he was at the school every morning by 5 or 6 to personalize the parking spots for the seniors. The whole council came and helped him, but it was quite a week, because when they finished each day at nine am, they had to then go into the school to be there for registration at the school until 3 each day. He was very tired, but is having a great time with the other members of the council and all of the students that come to the activities. Next week they will be having auditions for the high school musical "7 Brides for 7 Brothers", it will be fun to see which part he gets, he is preparing well so that he won't be scared to death at auditions. Hopefully it goes well - we'll keep you posted.

Becky came home for a few days this week during her break, it was so fun to have her here. She brought her roommate from last semester, Chelsi, she is a cute girl and we enjoyed having them both here. They came Wednesday night and we had a good dinner together and then watched a movie, the next day I worked half a day and then we went to a mattinee together and that night had a good dinner and played several rounds of clue, which was fun. The next day I had to work again and they had to leave that afternoon, but I came home for lunch and made them panini's and a fruit smoothie and we watched the video from Sarah's birthday when Becky was like three and we watched the clip of when they were telling the scarey story and Becky gets scared and runs into Sarah's arms for safety......so cute!

Friday night we took Dave out to the new restaurant in town called "The Brick Oven" for those of you who have been to Provo it is the same one as in Provo, and has a great salad bar and pizza, so that was a big treat and we had fun catching up with him. Life is busy, but good and we hope it is good for all of the rest of you - we miss you and love you! Theresa, Mark and Dave

  1. Wow, sounds like Dave is busy! We always thought Benjamin was the cutest brother on 7 Brides, but nobody wanted to pretend to be his bride cause her name was Dorcus. Best of luck Dave! Hope you don't have to "marry" Dorcus...Are you talking about my birthday video? I don't remember that! We really need to get all the old family video's copied for eachother one of these days....Love you guys.
