I have not written on my blog for so long! This is the story of my life so I need to write the news even if it is old. My life has changed so much in the last month. My biggest complaint was the weather. I am so sick of a nice day followed by a snow storm! I want it to stay cold and snowy until it is ready to be sunny and warm. April is a month with many of my loved ones birthdays, this year it is the last month of aprons. Melanie had her baby on March 31st and it was a girl. I just knew it was going to be a boy. As the time grew near she really wondered if she would be born on April Fool and turn out to be a boy. hehehe Jeanene was due on the 27th and she ended up having her baby on Fri. the 17th. This was not a normal delivery to say the least. She went to the hospital and had an emergency c-section. I won't write all the gory details here but we came close to losing her. She had 2 blood transfusions and is not out of the woods yet but doing sooooooooo much better. I am so thankful that Dan can stay home with her for 2 weeks. Danette and I are doing what we can. Oh, that part....Marlin and I were going to come down and see both babies but we had a few things to do to get our mission paper s turned in. We left Utah on Sunday morning and drove straight through to satisfy our need to see Jeanene for ourselves. Marlin called Pres. Walker and told him that we would be in Tuc. and could we volunteer in the mission office until our call came. He was for that and we told him we would call when we were ready. Danette and Kelly invited us to stay for the year that we are in Tuc. They are being so helpful and sacrificing alot! We spent Mon. through Wed. getting settled and visiting. We started in the mission office on Thurs. I had no idea what we were in for. I am over referrals and Marlin finance. We receive referrals from missionaries over the phone, from SL., and other missions. I find out what companionship they belong to and text them. (that is a simple way of saying what I do) I also do anything that comes up like make keys for cars and such. It is way more complicated than I ever thought. Marlin says the same thing about his job. The 2 Elders that are training us are very efficient and helpful but they want to be out of the office. Makes me wonder why, they know something I don't know. Just kidding, they want to teach! Sunday I made green chili burros and had everyone over(Danette has been doing all the cooking and I thought she needed a break. I really miss the Utah kids-that means you to Maryn. Monday as we were driving to the office I had a mini-melt down. I started crying and told Marlin I couldn't do this and I wanted to go home. Today was a better day. I do not like feeling stupid! We went to Snells on our way home because we had a tire that was going flat, Marlin used Dans compressor to pump it up. Caleb wanted me to watch him play hockey. He goes in the alley next to Snells and skates with his stick and puck. I was helping him make a goal and he raised his stick to cheer and wacked me across the nose with the stick. I saw stars and moons ande heard crunching noises. All's well we will see if I have a black eye in the morning. Kelsey and I played Rumicube, I am so tired I only played one game even though she beat me. Good night
