En Espanish, por favor

Today was our first day in the 5th Branch here in Visalia. Our family was called by the stake president to go on a "mission" to the 5th branch for at least a year. I am now the Executive Secretary to the branch president, my first administrative calling in the church. I went to Office Depot yesterday thinking about what kind of supplies I needed. And now that I've been through my first set of early morning 3 hour meetings (7 am every Sunday), I have a better idea what I need. I have so much to learn in this calling, all while trying to remember Spanish from my mission. It's been 16 years since I returned from my mission.

WOW. Is that right? Ay Caramba!

It will be a challenge for our whole family. I really hope we don't lose our 3rd ward friends. Maybe we should start a dinner club or something. Hmmm...

Our Newest Family Addition

A Piano! We have a piano! Krista is breaking it in as I type this. I guess I'm going to have to take up piano again.

I Finished It!

So I finally finished Breaking Dawn yesterday! I didn't think it would take me 2 days to finish about 50 pages. It ended as I thought it would end. Can't wait for the movie!

Mystery Car


So heading out of Arizona (just miles from Mike's mom's house), in Surprise, AZ we saw this car. Do you know what kind it is? It is a test car that has been masked so as to not reveal the make of it. Mike and I think it is either a Ford, Honda, or Kia. It had Michigan plates and we think it was headed to a test track. We passed a Hyundai/Kia test track on the way home. What's your guess?
