School has started at BYU-I again. Only this time I'm part of the student body up there. Weird. No only because it has been a whole year since going to school, but I have to do homework again. I'm just used to doing what I want when I want (only if Jacob allows, of course). It's going good. I only go Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. And surprisingly I'm really liking my classes. They are going to be hard and lot of work...A LOT of work but what's school for anyway right?
Enough of that...on to a calling. I was just called to be one of the ward organists!!! Yes, you read that right. I'm the youngest one by 25 years (there are 4 of us). Yesterday was my first sunday playing. I play ever third week. So that isn't bad at all...except I'd never played the organ in front of a congregation...ever. I have played pre- and postlude but not while anyone was singing. And to make things better it was ward conference. So the whole stake presidency and the high council were there. A little nerve racking but not too bad. Once I got past the first line of the first song, I was back in the swing of playing in front of people. I don't think I've played for people since high school. That is sad, but the Lord knows best so hopefully this will be a strengthening experience. Hopefully.
On to the cute kid. Cute and mischievieous. Whenever there is a quiet moment when he is playing in his room, I know that nothing good is going on.

Exhibit 1:
It was quiet, a little too quiet, so I went to go see what Jacob was doing. This is what I found. And those are the good wipes that smell like cucumbers. Thank goodness I could same them in a separate container. He thought he was hilarious.
Exhibit 2:
We were eating dinner. Joe and I were just talking and I look over as Jacob turns his bowl upside down on his head. I don't know why he did it but it was pretty funny.
Our little dancer. He LOVES to dance. When any music is playing this is what he does!
And lastly, I hardly have any picture of me and Jacob. It's just because I hate being in pictures. I just don't like to see myself. Yesterday Joe forced me to be in a picture. I know I'll be glad later for it. But here it is.
