Happy Birthday Arek!

So, I'm a few days late in posting, but Sunday was Arek's birthday. Hooray! He is now 26 years old... wowzers, time goes by fast. He was only 22 when we met and that seems like it was just yesterday! His birthday was a busy day (both of us started new callings: him as 2nd counsellor/scout master in young mens, and me as primary chorister. We are both super excited but will miss teaching our sunbeams, which we taught for about 20 months! Then, I also had visit teaching appointments and choir practice) but he seemed to enjoy it. I gave him a handbook about reloading bullets, which is something he really wants to learn about. So he read that most of the afternoon. In the evening Tiffer and Jared came over and had dinner (homemade focaccia bread and chicken cordon bleu sandwiches) and cake and ice cream. It is always a lot of fun when they come visit... the boys never tire of reminiscing about their funny childhood. So all in all it wasn't the most exciting birthday for Arek but it was good. I am so grateful to be married to such a great man. Love you, Arek and Happy Birthday!
My family came up on Saturday to give Arek his gifts (a new hoodie and a movie) and snapped this family photo

  2. Looks like you had a great day. I like your haircut, couldn't really tell from the Conference picture. Ethan loves butternut squash and sweet potatoes too, he also has a thing for carrots, don't know what it is about the orange foods! You guys look good. Can't wait to see you in August!
