I Love Sundays!

I love Sundays, and my new calling as a sunbeam teacher! I love being with the primary, I look forward to it every week! Teaching and preparing my lessons aren't even that bad, in fact not bad at all! I love it, I am learning so much. Its kinda like I am getting the primary experience I never had growing up. The Lord really knows where each of us need to be :]] The primary kids are sooooooo cute and funny! Haha I am going to start keeping track of the funny things they say on this handy dandy blog.

LAST WEEK:

J age 3: "hey, whats your name again?"
"Presley Kofoed" (I am not a fan of sister Kofoed hahaha)
"oh, Presley, thats a great name. . .  I love it"
J also told me that he wrote the scriptures.

J age 3: Sees Garett points to me and asks him "is this your love?"
How cute is that? J and M are twin brothers by the way.

B age 4: Randomly in the middle of the lesson "my mom choked on a vitamin yesterday"

THIS WEEK:

(with the group, talking about modesty)
K age 5: Teacher says, "What do you guys think dressing modestly means?"
K raises hand and says, "It means covering your bum and boobies"

(lesson on forgiveness)
J: I ask "J how do you feel when someone wont share toys with you?"
"Well, I fell like I should put them in jail"

Haha, I love it!
Thats all for now, I am sure there will be more to come next week :]]

For Time And All Eternity

Oh my goodness! So much has happened since my last blog post! Garett's family was here all week with us. They were able to be here for his graduation and our sealing!

Gare graduated with his bachelors degree in behavioral science on Friday April, 29th! I am so proud of him! He also has a job interview on Monday to potentially be a case manager AND he is currently on the wait list for the UofU Masters of Social Work Program! Pray for him! Gare is so funny he wore his graduation gear (cap, gown, tassel, and all) all day haha. I woke up and he was all ready to go in his funny little get up two hours early, and then he wore it after to go out to eat! He said "I had to pay 60 bucks for this thing might as well get my moneys worth!". That boy cracks me up!

haha my silly graduate!
Then on April 30th I received my endowments and Gare and I were sealed for time and all eternity in the Oquirrh Mountain Temple! It was such an amazing day and I am so glad Gare and I were surrounded by family and friends to support us! There is no describing the feeling you have in the temple, I can't wait to go back! I am so glad this amazing and true gospel has found its way into my life, what a blessing it is to have the knowledge that families are FOREVER! The church is true :]]

Lately

So much has been going on lately, but I haven't had much time to blog about it. This new job is keeping me busy. This new job that I love by the way, I am learning so much and the people I work with are awesome.  I love the student I am working with, she always keeps things interesting for me :]] It really is such a rewarding job I can tell that I am a big help to her.  I love it!! I get off of work at 3, but that is when Garett has to be to work so there are some days where I don't even get to see him, because by the time he gets home I am asleep. But we get by, it makes the time we do have together that much more special.  We are both doing well in school, Gare actually graduates this April! I am so proud of him!

While we are on the school subject, I am taking a children's lit. class and I get to read all of these fun kids books, I love it! The latest reads have been. . .


I loved every single one! Mostly the last two! I was a bit worried about "The Watsons go to Birmingham" because it sounds and looks boring, but this book has taught me to not judge a book by its cover! I loved loved loved it! I recommend it to anyone. These books have taken me away from my most recent read "Uglies" I am about half way through and now that I am done with these ones I am excited to get back to reading it :]]

And lastly, wasn't this a great conference weekend?! The church is TRUE, and Thomas S. Monson is a prophet of God.
