Now that Ryan is serving as 1st counselor in the Bishopric of a college ward, we as a family get the chance to go to a lot of actives the college ward does. The girls love being with the college kids, as they make them feel so special and some of them enjoy playing games with our girls. One girl even bought the girls a Christmas present this year. So sweet of her to do that.
Along with his calling however, are a lot of responsibilities and he is gone more often with callings. We are so proud of him though and I love to see him serve where he can make such a big impact in these college kids' lives for the better.
Doesn't he look so dashing in his homemade sweater!? haha. I think he won the ugliest sweater award for the bishopric!
Here's the ward clerk, Chris and his wife, Sydney. They are newlyweds. They are an awesome couple. We had them come and babysit our kids one night so we could go to Boise to see Boise State beat BYU. Chris made the girls balloons shaped into anything they wanted! Quite a talent to have especially with kids.
Then of course there is 2nd counselor, Jared Heward, and his wife, Rachel. We were married around the same time they were back at BYU-Idaho. They were in our ward when we were all first married and Jared was assigned to be our Home Teacher. Now Twelve years later and we both have 4 kids and our husbands our serving together. Small world! It's good to see both of them after so long.
There is a house just about a mile from us that goes crazy with Christmas Lights every year. So this year we decided to head over there and check them out. They let anyone and everyone walk around their 2-acre lot looking at the lights. It was very pretty.
