I will begin.
I am up to my nose in the 'highlands of Scotland' producing this years musical, "Brigadoon" and am having a great, albeit stressful time. It is great being home every other morning with my little family but that doesn't give me much time to prepare for my classes. I know Russ is a bit frustrated because even when I'm home I'm not altogether there. We open in like 4 weeks and we are not close to ready! But the kids have been working hard and I have no doubt they will pull it together.
Little Sarah took her first steps last Saturday. What have we gotten ourselves into?! She is constantly smiling and coming into her own little personality. She and Abi have a great time playing together and will one day be great friends (as soon as they both realize their own strength).
Abi is so much fun to talk to and can carry on quite the conversation. She loves to tell me, "Mama, let's talk a little" when I get home from work and always says "Memember?" regarding anything and everything. It's so fun. Potty training on the other hand, is not. She does really well about 2/3 of the time, it's the remaining 1/3 that is keeping us up to our elbows in disinfectant wipes. Good times.
Russ is doing well and coming up with all sorts of great ideas for RB Studios and our family. He was just called to be the deacons adviser in our ward and has jumped into it with both feet. When asked about his first camp out he responded it was "cold" and that he's not looking forward to the one they have planned for this winter. :) I'm so glad I'm not a scout :). Although we did have a great time camping in Grandma Lisa's backyard last week. We really know how to 'rough it'. He is a wonderful father and caring husband and we couldn't ask for anything more.
We all enjoyed hearing the council given at General Conference last weekend and hope everyone had the opportunity to do the same. I especially liked Elder Christoferson's talk.
Anyway, love you all and can't wait to see you soon!
