Two Hour Church...Need I say more?

It was awesome. The Draper temple was dedicated yesterday and we have church from one to four. The problem was that the dedication started at four thirty and they needed to get everyone out of the church and get everything ready for the broadcast of the dedication. So we only had church from one to three. It was kind of nice. Our sunday school teacher is a hard one to listen to for long without going to sleep. I'm not speaking from personal experience because Ethan always keeps me busy during church but everyone around us always bobs their heads. Not yesterday, after the teacher was finished setting everything up, he only had about ten minutes to teach. It was great! Not that gospel doctrine isn't enjoyable, its just hard when the teacher reads the whole time without getting any comments or involving people. Anyway, Relief Society only lasted for about fifteen minutes, which meant that I only had to lead one verse of the opening and closing song. I'm the Music Coordinator for Relief Society. Its great. I love music and it has made me appreciate the hymns and the Spirit they bring into the lessons.

This last week Brian actually had to do his calling. Are you ready for this? He's the Class Advisor for Enrichment. He basically has to babysit four times a year. He was called to do this about six months ago and has only done it twice now. He loves it because 1. He loves kids and 2. Its a really easy calling. A lady sets up all the activities and treats and all he has to do it put it in motion. So he basically just has to show up. And yes, this is his only calling. Our ward is huge and has needed to split for the last two years and it finally will sometime soon we're hoping. We have been in the ward for over a year and are now finally not being asked if we're new every week. Its a huge ward and we have only met a handful of people. Its sad so we're really excited for it to be split so we can get to know more people.

Brian's been really busy with work lately. Him and his brother. Jared, are getting really busy with QPC and they are also working for Scentinel candle. Both jobs keep them super busy. We feel very blessed to have them busy, especially at this time when so many people are out of work.

I've been up to absolutely nothing. I am just enjoying being at home with my little one and taking care of him. I actually left for a few hours on Saturday to go to lunch with most my sisters and my brother for my dad's birthday. We went to Sizzler and had so much fun. I left Ethan home with Brian and it was great but I also felt good coming home.

Ethan is being so stubborn. He rolled over a few weeks ago but now will not do it. Its almost like he forgot how, which is weird because I was having him do it at least three times a day and he was a pro. Then one day, he decided he no longer wanted to and now he is back to screaming and shoving his face in the floor when on his belly. So stubborn! Love him anyway though.

Friday was a great day. After Brian got off work, we went straight to his parents' house so he could help set up their tramp. I can't wait for Ethan to try it out. I am sure he will love it because he loves to be bounced. After, Lorie fixed us wonderful hamburgers on the grill and it was so fun because it was like summer. Such nice weather, grill going, and wonderful company. It was a blast. Saturday night, we went over to Brad and Missy's and played a very fun game named Bohnanza. It was super fun and we couldn't get enough so they are coming over tonight, along with Traci and Brody, to play again. We're really excited. It was so funny on Saturday night because Ethan was super tired and usually he whines and cries until he falls asleep but I was holding him, playing the game, and he just started to nod off. It was so funny. I have never seen him do that and I couldn't stop laughing. Missy took some super cute pictures of it and a really funny video but the video was too big to email so the pictures will have to do for now.

I know I'm biased but he has got to be the cutest little baby ever!

This is him nodding off. He kept hitting my arm with his head. So funny!
