Catching Up

I am so sorry I forgot to post last week. The last couple of weeks have been not to bad. Marques has had a few papers and books to keep up on, but nothing overwhelming. I had a few things to do for work, and a few crazy days, but we are doing really well and moving right along. It was wonderful to listen to conference last weekend and hear all the new changes and things we can do to better ourselves. We had a couple from the ward over all day Sunday, it was pretty fun to have them here and be able to share things with them.
This past week Marques won his flag football game!! He had a few good passes, but it was a blast to watch and cheer for him. We went to feed the turtles today, and wow, there were probably twenty of them. It was a feeding freenzy!! Marques took me shopping yesterday and I didn't even know it, we went out for some regular errands and I got two pairs of shoes and some things I'd really wanted to the house. Oh and I must not forget my really late birthday present arrived yesterday. I pooled the money I was given and contacted the author of the books, Rip Squeak, I love, and her and her husband, the illustrator, personally signed my painting!! I love it and it already made it to the wall. I also cut Marques' hair for the first time yesterday. It turned out really well, I am proud, lol. We got the opportunity to take the missionaries out this week, which is always a fun treat to have them around. And last but not least, I made two incredible dinners this week. Marques will even tell you. I made beef taco's like cafe rio with the shells and sauce and all and steak, potatoes, and zucchini. I made dinner every night, but those two were new and very delicious. I was so excited and impressed with myself. Anyways, that seems to sum our week, and I will keep in touch better. Love you all.
