One of THOSE days

Do ever just have one of those days where you just feel miserable...like you just can't do anything right or there is just too many things to worry about? Oh yeah. I feel like I've had one of those days. There's always tomorrow!

Another Semester Down...

I took my last exam today. Hooray! I made it!

LDS Church Catches Fire in Cambridge

We had our stake conference today (it was a broadcast from Salt Lake City) and at the end before the closing prayer, Clayton Christensen stood up and informed the congregation that one of our chapels in Cambridge, the Longfellow Park chapel, had caught on fire and was burning down. The broadcast for our stake conference was taking place there as well. Luckily, it sounds like everyone was able to get out safely. This was a historic chapel for the saints out here. It is so sad. Here's the story off of Boston.com. One of our ward members, Ellen Patton, also has some pictures posted on her blog. Pretty sad...It will be interesting to see what will happen next and where they will have the three wards attend services. Work has started on a new chapel in Cambridge, but it won't be done for quite some time. At least the steeple is still standing.

On a personal note, I have finals this week. I have a French Oral exam and two finals for my other two classes. I'm not planning to cram too hard, I figure I have gone to class the whole semester, participated and done the assignments, I should be okay. But...if you feel like it, an extra prayer in my behalf would be more than welcome.

Zac finally received permission to play volleyball again and around a month later, he went to practice, landed on a kid who had come underneath the net and sprained his ankle. Hmmm...he's not too happy. He's been being super careful and taking care of it pretty well. He has nationals in Minnesota this coming weekend. I'm sure he'll still have fun, I mean it is volleyball afterall!

The kids...they are doing well. They made it through another dentist appointment without cavities. YAY! They are mostly concerned with how much playtime they get, especially with the nicer weather we've been receiving.

So...that is my update...exciting and not so exciting, but there you have it!

My Little Karate Master

Tyson has been loving his karate. He just achieved his yellow belt. Here's a video of him after having just received his yellow belt. He's in the back row (with glasses).

Spring Break?

It's my spring break and I have a load of things to do. Here's a bit of my list:
• Taxes
• FAFSA
• School Financial Aid Forms for next year
• Buy stamps and mail everything that has been sitting around for a week
• Finish up lingering French Homework
• Laundry
• Schedule Dentist Appt
• Visiting Teaching
• Get a head start on School Reading
• Get new backpack for Tim
• Scrapbook (I hope so)
• Music Practice
• Piano Lessons
• YW Meeting
• Clean House

I don't know if one can call this much of a break. It's more of a catch-up session. Also, it still isn't feeling too much like Spring yet. Who came up with the term Spring Break anyway? Well, at least it's a week off of classes. It's nice to be able to focus more on my family again.

Saturday Chores

Tim and Tyson are on bathroom duty for their Saturday chores. After Tim had finished with the cleaning of the royal throne, Tyson went to start on the floor. He directly came back out, hands on hips, looked sternly at Tim and said, "There's still bubbles on the toilet, Tim. Why is that?" It's nice to know I'm not the only one expecting a job well done. Oh yeah, and have I mentioned how much I love my awesome boys? What troopers!

I just wanted to say...

I love my sisters and I miss them like crazy!
