Seminary and Friday night dinner!

I've had the distinct pleasure of subbing for early morning Seminary the last 3 days. I get to substitute next Monday and Tuesday as well for Carolyn Zauss in the freshmen class. Love these kids. We're studying the period right before the Savior's crucifixion. The kids are wonderful. Today we worked on memorizing a scripture mastery verse and then played a scripture mastery game. We line the chairs up in pairs and the kids scripture chase against the person seated in the chair next to them. Whoever wins that round moves forward one chair and the idea is to get to the head of the class. Whoever's in the first row and wins gets to stay at the head. The kids seemed to enjoy the game.

Tonight we had Wendy, Aaron and the boys over for dinner along with Wendy's sister Jennifer who just moved in to live with Wendy's dad. Jennifer is suffering from MS and has had some major challenges in her life. It was nice to get to meet her. She talked about some of the life changes she's been trying to make, she'd made some pretty bad choices in the past. I invited her to come to church with Wendy and told her that there are some wonderful health professionals in our ward that she could meet and network with who might be able to help her. She's supposed to start drinking more water and then next Tuesday she's going to come over so I can give her a massage with the MagCreator. I hope it will help her feel better.

Speaking of massages, I gave Mason a 'massage' with the MagCreator. It was the cutest thing, he was giggling up a storm. Apparently he's ticklish on his back! lol

Then Aaron and Wendy took turns giving each other massages with the MagCreator while the rest of us played with the boys.

I tried to get the loan application for Texas completed online today, but had some questions and couldn't get the finance guy to call or email me back. Hopefully I'll hear from him tomorrow.

We're still trying to iron out some issues that were brought up in the home inspection. I met with Kimberlee Peterson today and she assured me that there's not anything that they're not willing to work out with us, so it looks like the house sale is a go no matter what!

It's very exciting and nerve wracking at the same time to consider that we'll be moving down to Texas very shortly. The scheduled closing date on our house is March 4th! We're heading to Texas for a pre-planned visit next week and hope to be able to meet with the realtor on Thursday the 17th and then again the following Tuesday. Hopefully we'll be able to find our house if it's out there for sale!
