Coming back to Texas

Driving back to the Lone Star State took a while but it was worth it! I was excited to get things set up here. Julie and I got an apartment in Lewisville, Texas, with a sweet girl named Kristy Dodge, who goes to Church with us. We had to make many trips up to the third floor when we moved in, but we had some help and did it pretty quickly. Slowly, we got more and more furniture and set up our utilities. Best of all, we made tons of friends in our Church branch and have had a lot of fun hanging out with them.

Julie and I also got dates to the Tim McGraw and Faith Hill concert. It was an awesome show and a fun night. We've also gone swimming a lot to survive the Texas heat. Things are going well now. We both got callings and were asked to speak in Church. I am the new activities chairperson and Julie is a Sunday School teacher. We're excited about becoming more involved in the branch.

I've also had time to spend time in Cleburne working basketball andolleyball camps, which was fun. The only drawback was that after two weeks of running drills and coaching, I sat up in bed twice calling out "Go over there" and "We need to switch them out." I figured that coaching was not the best career path for me as it disrupts roommates and my sleeping habits. I also have spent time with my parents and Drew, Lindsey and little Dallin, who just celebrated his first birthday. He's a very funny guy!
