     We took the school to West Castle to go Skiing. I really only ski about once a year because it is so much money to get into. Haydn and Brody keep bugging us to take them skiing, and we really should sometime because they really want to try it. I would like Haydn to ski at least once before he goes on the ski trip with the junior high next year. I am sure we will take them at least once this year. Hopefully they can get the hang of it quick and not get hurt hahaha.

     Haydn has been playing the Rocksmith Guitar game a lot  and he is getting better everyday. He knows how to play a lot of songs now. He is in love with the band Avenged Sevenfold right now and will listen to his headphones while he is eating breakfast. I brought the Bass guitar home from the school a few times and he is learning to play that as well. He has a good ear for the music and will be a great musician if he keeps with it.

     I was called into the "Young Mens" a couple of weeks ago. I am the 1st councilor in the Young Mens presidency. This is a big change for me because I have been so used to just teaching in the Elders Quorum once a month. I have not been involved in the Young Mens since I was young enough to be in the Young Mens. It has been a good experience so far. We went to the Temple to do Baptisms last week and that was a great experience for me. It had been a long time since I had done that, and it was great feeling. It will be good to be in the Young Mens because Haydn is close to being in there with me and I will be able to keep an eye on him haha.

     Reggie and AJ were sealed in the Temple last weekend. It was great to be in the Temple with them and share that important day. Everybody who was there had a great time hanging out and celebrating this day with them.
