Why I love teaching freshmen.

Students are studying Romeo and Juliet all month. I just quizzed them on the prologue, a quiz that required a rough line by line translation.

"From ancient grudge break to new mutiny." = An old grudge gets more grudgy.

"From both the fatal loins of these two foes." = Both families fight like lions.

Be jealous of my job. It rocks.

Happy Baptism!

Today Cameron West was baptized and he sure had a huge crowd of supportive friends and family. It was pretty neat, and Blaine and I feel blessed to be a part of this fella's life.

I don't have any pictures of today, but I can include a picture of us with Elder Christofferson. Cameron went all the way up to a General Authority to have his baptism approved. Pretty cool, if you ask me.

Sleepy time

Yesterday morning we were supposed to catch the bus to Richfield at 6:15 a.m. for a Speech and Debate meet. We were meant to pick up Jace at 6:00. At 5:55 I woke up to a light turning on, and Cameron standing in the doorway staring at us like we were pathetic. Don't worry. We were still in bed. Neither Blaine's nor my alarm went off.

It was the beginning of a VERY LONG DAY.
