YW social/RS family hike

I hosted a movie/game night for the Young Women on Friday night from 7-10 p.m. We had a great turnout - 15 people! We had a lot of fun together! This picture was taken before a couple people were there...

I even went on the trampoline with a few of the young women (I'm really not that old!)

After over an hour of socializing some watched a movie and some (myself included) got into the game of Taboo. My throat still hurts from all the yelling of answers.

It was a fun night and I hope to have them over again soon.

This morning my parents and our family went on a family hike sponsored by the ward Relief Society. There was a fantastic turnout of about eight or nine large families. We went to Reddington Pass and enjoyed a simple hike with breathtaking water along the way.





It was a gorgeous morning and a fun hike, one I hope to do again soon.
After the hike we had to go to the parent meeting for soccer. Reid and Chase are both playing, thankfully they will be on the same team (a first). Luckily a parent came forward and volunteered to coach (whew!). Their first practice is this coming Wednesday.
Directly from that meeting James and I went with Austin to the U of A for his Regional audition for band. He made it last year, which was great for a sophomore. He doesn't think he did well this year, whatever the outcome he has our support.
I also got to attend a baptism today for the son of one of my visiting teachers! It was a very special event. After a busy day it was nice to attend something such as a baptism. I wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else.
This evening James has spent his time helping Reid and Chase with their science fair projects while I helped Austin with a large poster board for his Spanish class and worked on some things for the Young Women (birthday gifts and a Individual worth centerpiece/handout. 8 a.m. church in the morning is going to come very early!
