Things are going good here in the Eastern side of the state. Mitch and I have new callings in our ward. He is the webelos leader and I'm the Scout Committee Chairman (whatever that is?). These are both new callings for us, but Im reassured that with my ward planning parties, that i'll be doing the same thing but just for the Pack meeting each month. It'll be great. At least i'll have something to do.
We've enjoyed getting to know one of Mitch's younger cousins lately too. She is in her 2nd year up here and is one of the coolest girls I know. She babysits in exchange for food too (what a good deal for us!). Tiff and I even walk in the mornings for an hour together.
The boys are doing good. Cam talks about kids that are his "friends" at school, so I know he is liking it. He rides the bus home after school and has made friends with a special needs boy 2 houses down. He has a social worker who comes over everyday to work with him and I ended up in a conversation with him. He is from Mozambique AND went to BYU in provo. He is a member of the church? crazy small world. He said that Braxton has been taking leaps and bounds socially since Cam and him hang. Camden doesn't even know he is doing his missionary work. Jack and Brady are still my buddies at home. Since my life has slowed down, we take naps every afternoon and love it. We went to the park today and Camden met a Russian family. And its funny how camden always convinces the kids to play "chase" and Camden is never it.
I sent the signed papers in to close on the sale of our house. Bittersweet.
Things are good!

so much good news nan, i'm happy to hear it. loved seeing you and way to go with the walking. sounds like cam is an ace at making friends and being one, just like the iron cowgirl :)
Sounds like you guys are making lots of interesting friends. Cam is a friendle and easy going guy, I can totally picture him playing chase with the Russians. Ha! Glad you have a walking buddy and are getting some afternoon naps. Yay for you!
I meant friendly, not friendle. Ha.
So this update makes my email seem like I'm a total loser. You are such a good example to me Nan. You are making the best of your situation. I love that your kids are doing great, and hooray for naps! Since we've gotten here, I've don't take mine regularly. Shocking I know. I really don't know what changed either. You are awesome with your friends and I love that you have a walking buddy.
Oh and Cam making friends is just like Sydnee. So awesome. I know the feelings of signing those papers.....it's hard but a blessing. Oh and those boys will have the BEST Pack Meetings evahh! Love you girl. You think I should've just written an email to you, Kim, Sarah, Rach and Nat instead of this long comment???? :)
Nan, I love reading your updates, but it tugs at my heart a little, cuz we miss you guys. It's weird that I can't just drop by, you know?
So you should ask that Mozambiqan kid if he knows Taylor. He served his mission there and has a lot of contact with people from there. It is a small world after all, right :) ?
Oh, and I love your blog redesign. Did Mitch do that?
um, i forgot to leave my second comment! :) how funny is it that you and kristen switched places on nap time? next time i see you...bring on the skinny's!
