Back to the Old Grind Stone

We have had a fairly low-key weekend. As I type this the boys are playing Mario-Kart and Laughing non-stop at each other. (It is really cute!) This weekend we watched the NFL Wild-Card games, with great disappointment. My Colts wont be going any further, but on the upside, Joe's Eagles are movin' on up!!

Today we got a brand new class in Primary. We not only got new kids, but an entirely different age group as well (they will all be turning 5 this year). We were kind of worried about teaching the younger ones, but things went really well (sigh). We had a few minutes to kill at the end of class so we asked the children if there were any songs they would like to sing. Apparently we needed to be more specific and ask for "church" songs. One little fella hollered out that he wanted to sing "Shot through the Heart", well at least Brad and this kid both like Bon Jovi, at least they have that in common! :)

Myles had his first Jr. Jazz game yesterday. I think Myles is the tallest on this team (not usually the case). They actually played fairly well. Myles has improved his basketball skills considerably. The other team however was a full head about all of our team members. Needless to say we lost, but it was close, the score was only 57-14!!!! At least Myles just laughed this loss off.

I hope this week goes smoothly. I don't think I worked a complete week the entire month of December. I was either using up vacation days or off for the holidays. So getting back into the whole 5 day work week seems a bit daunting. So good luck to all you fellow worker bees out there!!

Bon JOVI! That makes me laugh! I hope it all went well, in asking kids how their days went, several from your class jumped up and down and said they loved you. It just doesn't get better than that!
