name change


Superman will now be known as Indiana. He still claims that:"when I grow up I will be a superhero and fly", but since he hasn't taken the Indiana hat off in almost a week, I'm switching his name for the blog. It's funny since he refuses ANY nickname in real life.
Mimi will keep her nickname, though, because it's fun to type. But she also refuses any nickname. How hilarious is it that Mimi sits in this basket and reads?

This next story is about me, so don't read if you're not interested in a good NJ story...

In our new church congregation I was asked to help out in the Relief Society (women's group). The president of the group is a woman that I knew in high school in NEW JERSEY, she's very cool and, in my mind, not a typical LDS woman.

She feels like she is not gentle enough to handle some situations that may come up. I told Greg that I feel like telling her that perhaps not all situations need to be handled gently. Greg just laughed and said :"this will be a new era of 'tough love' for the Relief Society".

I heart NJ!

I didn't think it was possible but there are crazier sports fans than those in Boston! Ohio State fans are NUTS! One new comer commented that it's like everyday is a pep rally. Really, it's so crazy here! So, at church a bunch of men were talking about the "big game" from Saturday and I curiously asked what the score of the world series game was--blank stares.

  4. I can't stand it, how cute this is. Look at Thomas standing like a poster, and Maureen running around. Typical? The red hat I sent was used by Greg and I'm glad he used it. The adorable hat Maureen had on is of course Sonya's, which I couldn't throw away all these years.
