We are taking off this afternoon to go camping with Chad and Amber and who knows how much of Amber's family will be there! It will be fun to just relax and enjoy the beautiful weather!
Just to update everyone. . . We still do enjoy school! Homework is getting repetitive so that isn't as much fun, but so far I am doing well in all of my classes. Tests are turning out well!
All of our sports are doing alright. Our two Frisbee teams are winning, the ward soccer team is struggling pretty bad, and my competitive girls soccer team is doing really well. We scrimmaged against the boys team and only lost 2-1 which they were probably a little embarrassed about. It was fun and we were able to work on positioning a little more.
Our sports classes are still fun. David is learning all about volleyball and his teacher coached some for the Olympic girls and so she is pretty tough on his class. It sounds like she has a hard time a little with David's beginning class since she isn't entirely sure how to work with the beginners, but David is learning a lot still and only has two more weeks of it before it is over and he starts up a soccer class in the morning.
I love having my basketball class. It is a much needed break from the lectures of my other classes. It is just a girls class so we have fun playing with each other. My shooting has been on fire lately and it makes me look pretty good!! It has been pretty surprising to me since I haven't really ever been a strong shooter from the far shots, but I got it now! I have also been known for my rebounding and I love to just run in there when someone shoots and fight for the ball. It catches people off guard because it is usually just the big tall girls standing under the basket waiting for it to fall into their arms. . .but then I come flying in and snatch it away and smile as I run away with it!
So needless to say, we have been just playing every night. There is always a game for one team or another. It is nice to play with our ward and get to know some people that way. We will also get to know our ward a little better because David and I just got called to be Gospel Doctrine teachers. We hope that it all goes well and that we can teach them something about church history that they can learn something new each week. I have only taught first graders, so this could be fun!
We have been hanging out with our neighbors a lot. They have only been married for a month, so they think that David and I have been married for forever already and have all the married stuff worked out!!! It is funny that here in Rexburg, being married for nearly a year is like eternity, but anywhere else, people still congratulate us on getting married since we are still newlyweds! We just laugh at it as people ask us, "How do you like being married for so long?" Some people here are so ignorant . . . and it is too much fun!
Our neighbors are related to all the Blodgetts in the tri-cities and we have game nights with them all the time. They play on our Frisbee team with us and we invite each other over all the time too. David has fun helping with beginning accounting homework and teaching the basic concepts to them.
So all in all, we are just plugging along and enjoying all that we can!
