Memories

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember! 2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.EVERYBODY PLAY! I want to see what memories are out there!!

Ok I stole this from a friend. I am just not that creative. But it could be fun.

Greg's back

Greg was in Angola for two weeks and I was left all alone to do Youth Conference. So I kept working on my quilt. Made 250 YC schedules(laminated, punched, etc). And partied hard with people half my age. I was pretty exhausted when it was all over. I danced and the next day I felt it.
The Fourth of July was so exciting! We did absolutely nothing. Ok, Greg got home from Africa and I was just glad to get him back in one piece without leprosy or any other crazy diseases. He was pretty jet-lagged and slept most of the day away. We finally went out to watch some fireworks, at my insistence, but we left too late. The program finished right when we got there and so we just got left with trafic.

Playing games with my family on-line and my nephew goes to make a sandwich. We all thought it was pretty disgusting sounding, but he ate it. We decided that whoever lost the game had to make and eat the nasty sandwich. I was fairly confident in my gaming skills, but I did lose, by one point. So I did my duty.

MY QUILT

so far.

It's been a while. We've lived in Houston now for just under a year. I have been a nanny for two kids. But I have the summer off(The family already promised the nanny from last summer the position for this summer. I will be going back in the fall when she goes back to BYU. The summer will be crazy for her because she'll have all four kids, now that school is out. So I don't mind very much.
I have been keeping occupied reading, making a quilt and teaching piano lessons. Greg and I are also helping plan Youth Conference in our stake, which is sadly at the same time as the Darger Family Reunion.
Greg is getting ready to go to Angola with Exxon. He and his friend, Scott, will be watching them open a new pipeline that goes to a huge oil tanker. Hopefully he won't be gone much longer than a week and will get back in time for Youth Conference.
Today we had a class party with our primary kids. We had them over to swim in our apartment's pool. We had water guns, food, and floaty toys. It was a success. We have ten kids and more than half came. We give them stars during class, when they are good, that go to a party and they just earned it. We'll see if it takes them another six months to earn the next party.
That's pretty much what's going on around here.

Greg and I are in Houston, Tx. Greg works for Exxon Mobil. It is currently pouring rain outside. But it is really nice. Greg is taking the FE test for Engineers this Saturday. We are planning on carving pumpkins today.

I like to play World of Warcraft and Carcasonne online. I also play Settlers of Catan and
Aquire online. So fun times. The best part playing games online is that you can talk if you have skype (free web phone) while playing and hear and interact with other people like they're there.

I play Carcassonne with America, my sister, online and then make sounds at her daughter, Julia, in the background. Julia then repeats. She is just learning to talk. She will say, "hear", because she can hear me talking. It's a fun game.
