Needless to say--it's been busy around these parts. With the arrival of our first guests to our humble home (my parents), we greeted a few stragglers inside of Savanna's mouth (her molars), and a mysterious bite ailing Chris's leg. I will refrain myself from posting pictures of this ghastly site for just thinking about it makes me nauseous.
The emergency room drama began before my parents arrived but did not cease until they left. We still are not sure of the type of creature that caused such an uproar, but we did discover Chris's first known allergy to be that of sulfa made drugs. He had such a reaction that his current job training has been postponed until November & my fun-filled, girls only days are no longer...although I do have a girls night up and coming with my very missed Boston Babes! :)
Having my parents here was frantic, but FUN! I loved showing my mom around town and bossing my dad around with various home improvements--thanks again Dad! Savanna LOVED having her "Na" & "Pa" here & they'll be glad to note that all trips in the car are much, much calmer, but end on a shout of "Na, Pa" where ever the arrival may be. Savanna has graduated from eating in her confining high chair to throwing a fit until she's included at the table with us...thanks mom! Luckily I got a bargain on a GREAT booster...Yeah to TAG SALES! As for tag sales, my mom and I took TWO trips to the same estate sale & enjoyed our search for treasures that we surely DID find! (pictures to come later)
Best Friends
This fall we are hoping to finish our basement with the help of many friends & a loyal grandpa who will soon be visiting & hopefully sleeping on our newest arrival...the long awaited couch w/ it's comfy, cozy hide-a-bed! ( I tested it & prefer it over our current mattress)
The biggest and best news is that I've been called as our wards Primary Chorister--not joking. I can't carry a tune, but I'll have the best games, visuals, & props to make it seem like I'm a pro. I am actually relieved because I feared I would be called to be the Primary President since our current one, a dear friend, may be moving soon. Sad, but at least I'm not getting her job :) I know it will be an adjustment, but I find myself getting excited about the challenge because of the joy I'll get in singing my favorite songs EVERY week! Tune in later to see where Chris ends up--I sense a calling here soon....

I can't believe you are making me wait even longer to see the yard sale finds pictures-meanie! :-) I am jealous of your up and comming Boston Girls night out-what do you guys have planned?
Congrats on the new calling, I know you will do great.
You'll have a blast as music director for Primary. Even if you can't carry a tune, the kids won't care. And the church website will play all the music for you if you need to learn a new song. Guess you'll be stuck getting to know only the familys with Primary age kids once again! =)
Sounds like life's been crazy! Congrats on the new calling, I'm still enjoying your previous primary class...Riley gave us a very mild version of the birds and the bees the other day that gave me the silent laughter of death! Thank goodness Dustin was teaching at that moment ;D Can't wait for girls night!
Primary President for you...not a bad idea!!! ;) We're so excited to have you in Primary.
