A whole year, wow!

Shane and I haven't blogged of over a year. I am sad to report that I am not that great at keeping a a journal, why should and electronic one be any different? Shane and I have a had a great and interesting year. We will start with Shane- Shane is attending Capella University where he taking classes in Psychology. He enjoys his classes, but I think he is going to switch his major from Psychology to I.T. and work with computers. He has been toying around with computers and has been staying busy fixing his grandmother and his mothers computer. Did you know that there is a program out there that allows someone to log on and take over your computer as if they were sitting in the same room with you? I did not know this. This has been a great help with Shane's mom living in Idaho, and his grandmother on a mission in Salt Lake City. It's been a real convenience for him to be able to help them with us not living near them. Shane is also very busy with his calling. He is serving as the Sunday School President in our ward. He stays very busy because he has had to reorganize the entire Sunday school. Shane has some amazing counselors now, and they have been a huge blessing to him. Shane is also very dedicated to strengthening his back. He goes on walks daily to improve his back muscles and strengthen his legs. He is still having some pain, but we are hoping with a lot of Physical therapy he will be able to get back to normal. His doctor did some more testing on him and we might be looking at another back surgery in our future, we don't know for sure when it will be, but we are hoping that the physical therapy will work, and surgery won't be an option. Keep your fingers crossed on that one.
Wendy- I have been going to school full time at UVU. I enrolled earlier this year (2011) in the Elementary Education program. I did one semester, and realized that elementary education probably wouldn't be my strong suite. I am thinking I need to work with the older children, and switched over to Secondary Education. I will continue to pursue this field at UVU this fall. I am also been busy with church callings. I currently serve as the Beehive Adviser and moonlight on the side as the Camp director. We went to girls camp July 2011 and had an enjoyable time because it was on a ward level this year. We stayed 4 days and 3 nights up Payson canyon at Black Hawk. We heard lots of reports of bears being spotted in that area, and I think I scared the girl badly enough that they didn't keep any food in their tents. I also have been busy actively by playing on a city league volleyball team, and softball team. We've had some enjoyable experiences, and even won a game or two.
