Adventures in Relief Society...

Yeah, Megnog and Merry had their baby! Finally little Tom is here, only his name is Logan!

In a lot less exciting news, I did promise stories about Relief Society. So on Thursday there was a massive issue of callings, seriously over half the ward showed up in 15 minute intervals to recieve callings from the bishopric (one of the crazies of student wards, and the council stake in particular). I of course already had my calling, but they encouraged us to be there so that we could greet people after they got their calling and just get to know people generally. I was chatting with one girl, Christy, and the exec. sec, Jarron. They were discussing how Christy was supposed to have gone next but another girl had taken her turn. I comforted her by saying, "Don't worry you can just beat her up when she gets out." This seemed to make her feel better. (See why I got this calling, it's my nurturing nature!). I think it shocked the exec. sec. though, he was all, "What kind of Relief Society President are you?" THE WOFYB KIND!!! yeah!

In hindsight, I don't know why I bothered to post this, since Megan is the only one who comments and she is obviously indisposed. Since it will take a while for her to read this I will tell a story about her. We hung out last (I know you're all super jealous) and as we sat on the coach she spread out some towels and explain it was in case her water broke. Is it appropriate to say she's Watching Out For Her Uterus? I thought it was a nice variation. Not as catchy though, and definetly harder to say in an outrageous Austrailian accent. Trust me. I've tried.

Unityads

Okay, so Annie's last post is hard to follow, so I'm warning you now that this post is no where near as awesome as her's.

One of my first duties as relief society president was to give a talk in church with the other presidents. My topic was Unity! And yes, I totally quoted a unity ad. I said, "whenever I think of unity i think of a sign my roommates and I had in our apartment, it said, 'unity exclude everyone else." It got the biggest laugh of my talk (which is quite an accomplishment, when I'm the one that's speaking). Of course I went on from their to talk about how the world's idea of unity is based on exclusion, rivalry, and competition, but that the Savior's is about seeking out the lost sheep. Many people told me I did a great job on my talk (and most of them even sounded sincere), so I count the talk a success, and of course credit my awesome roommates and our awesome unity for giving me so much inspiration.

Also, I officially have a spanish minor, will do my student teacher next semester, and graduate at the latest August 2010!
love you,
