Well first of all - I am excited to announce that I received a new calling, I am now the 2nd Counselor in the Young Women's Presidency! I was a little shocked/nervous at first and felt guilty for somewhat "abandoning" my sweet lil' nursery kids that I've grown to love, but I am so stoked to be working with the YW! I've only known the other women in the Pres. for a short time but they are amazing!! Rod and I haven't been released from Nursery yet so I am doing both for a few more weeks which is kinda nice b/c it'll be easier for me to phase out. The kids will mostly miss Rod tho, I can admit he's the obvious favorite! (I think b/c he'll sit at the table and eat snacks with them, they must think he's just one of the kiddos) :~)
Rod and I hit up Six Flags over Georgia a few weeks ago and it was FABULOUS! I think the longest we waited was 45 mins for a ride and all the rest of em were 15 mins or walk-ons! It was beautiful weather outside and we had a blast! And it was by far the cleanest amusement park I've ever been to! (Always a PLUS in my book! )
Last week for Columbus Day we decided to take a lil' trip on the MARTA. It's basically Atlanta's metro transit system and it seems to come in very handy - especially for us "tourists" who still have a little trouble navigating around downtown! We visited underground Atlanta, took a stop to Little Five Points and checked out some random shops that you def. don't see in the mall. We ate at this place called the VORTEX and they had some amazing hamburgers - Rod ordered one called the Coronary Bypass...sounds healthy right? We walked a few miles from the MARTA station and back so it may have burned off a few of the 2 million calories...ok- who am I kiddin?
Waiting for the train - doesn't look too dirty from this view...
And then you look near the tracks...a freakin rat. Sick.
Today we went to the Tanger Outlets and did some winter shopping - the weather was perfect so we had to get outta the apt.! My fave item was my new Matix jacket/hoodie that was marked down from 70 to 20 bucks!! Suhweet! We ate Outback for dinner and now we're watching the TX Longhorns WAIL on Mizzou...(sigh)....today was a GOOD day.
Just so grateful.

And Your girls will love you (just as long as you are cool!) and FORGET ever coming to church with no make up on, or a mis-matched outfit, or heaven forbid just a ponytail in your hair??!!! And its a good thing you are a master Texter, cause let me tell ya...thats the only way to reach em! Things have changed since we once ruled the hallways of The Mesa East Stake Center (forever the best). Im glad you are now a fellow leader! You'll love it! p.s Rats in subways dont bother me. As long as they are alive. Dead ones freak me out. But when I see em in NY they make me feel like my whole subway experience is complete. :) So be nice to them. ok babe now that I have written a whole Novel for you to read, have a good day! Love you! xoxo
Good Luck in YW! It can be very nerve racking at times but you will fall in love with your girls! That is one calling I really miss! I really miss hearing them say the theme, I cried the last time I heard them say it before we moved!! And I am jelous you went to six flags, I so want to take another trip there! And I agree with Carrie, at least the rat wasn't dead, that would be even more gross!!
Fun calling! I love nursery and YW the best, which is probably why they put me in primary! That's so fun that you guys got to go to six flags:) And the rat is disgusting, I would throw up I hate rats and, well basically any bugs, or rodents!
Six flags sweet! Sounds like fun. I haven't been on rides like that is a while. See you guys soon.
Sister Crumpet--we are so glad to have you in YW! I found your blog today and it is so cute. You guys are an adorable couple.
hahaaaahahahah. Sister Crumpet.
I can't wait for you to get here and help change poopy diapers. Not a big deal compared to the dead rat you were sharing the same air with!!!
BTW - Sis. Crumpet is a joke...one of the Laurels thought that's what my name was so I told em they could call me that if they wanted to.
So now I'm Sis. Tea and Sis. Crumpet. Durney is starting to not look so bad...
