Almost there almost done...

I really have nothing to say really.  I was going to launch into what's been happening at school but it's the same old same old stuff that goes on.  Kids school, my school, sports, life and more.   Everyone is doing great.   We are just living life.   

Then I thought about big changes happening....

And I realized there will be and have been major changes happen in not only our family but with what will happen in the next 2 years.   If you have not already heard, the missionary age was recently reduced from 19 to 18 years old for boys and 21 to 19 for the girls.   That means instead of EJ waiting around for a year, getting bad grades in college, etc, he can now go on his mission as soon as he finishes high school.  This is MAJOR and I LOVE it.  It means he will have a nice 2 year break from school, grow up on a mission and get back to life sooner then expected.  It also means that Rae will have the chance to go on a mission sooner also which is awesome.   

Another major change... church membership in the Seattle area is growing so fast the congregations can't keep up.    Three weeks ago, a reorganization was announced in our Stake with the addition of 2 new wards for a total of 8 wards.   The congregation boundaries changed and we were moved to a new congregation.   Today was our first week in the new ward.  We went from a ward of 1000 people to a ward of 400.   It was SO easy to go under the radar in a ward as huge as 1000 but I am grateful for the opportunity to be in a smaller ward and giving more of my time to this congregation.    

As you are aware in a previous post, EJ and TJ made the Seattle Starz Elite Team.   They have flown back with James to Maryland (Baltimore) this weekend to participate in the Navy Nationals Lacrosse Tournament and the Crab Feast.  The house has been quiet, but miss them.

Not much happening more...except this semester will be done in 3 weeks and I start on my last semester at BYU Idaho.   It's already gone by fast!!  

Anyways good night!!...
