Quick Update
Sterling and I are going to be spending this week finishing up our classes and taking finals. It will be nice to have a couple weeks off, then on to summer semester. As for the new stuff, Sterling and I have been called as primary teachers. We are teaching the 4 year olds turning 5. Today was our first day and they are so cute, we are very excited. Not much else is going on. We just spent the weekend celebrating a wedding and a baby shower. The only thing left to say is that I am so ready and excited for the snow to melt on the mountains so we can go on hikes and go to Timpanogos cave.

Mission reunion
We went to another mission reunion on friday. It was a lot of fun seeing people we haven't seen for awhile. We didn't take nearly as many pictures as we would have liked to, but here are a few

This is Devin and his wife Melissa. It was so much fun to see them again and to see missy's baby bump. Congrats!
Sterling's mission president talked about Detroit a little bit. He told us some interesting facts. In the 1950's Detroit's population was 2.5 million and today it is at 900,000. When Sterling was on his mission the members of the church didn't have any ward buildings, they had just been renting different places to hold church in. Today they have 2 brand new ward buildings. Detroit is continueing to grow as far as the church goes. These missionaries have made such an impact and I am so proud of all of them. I believe that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is what is going to help that city.
This is Sean Kelly and his girlfriend Alena. This was one of Sterling's great mission companions

Update
I look at the blogs everyday and I get so bored when no one has anything new. Well look at me I haven't had anything new for ages.
First of all we are pleased to announce that we won the chili and chocolate cook off! Our ward has this event every year and this year we decided to participate. It was so much fun to taste all of the different chillis and chocolate desserts that people made. It's also fun to get more into the ward. We love it! It was fun that my mom went too.
Sterling made his spicy mexican soup and won "hottest chilli award" I made a rocky road pie and won "chocolateliest chocolate award". Sterling is trying to make a "this chili is spicy" face and I am trying to make a "mmm this is good chocolate face" hehe
As for the holidays, Sterling brought home some beautiful flowers for me for valentines day. I am a flower fanatic I LOVED THEM. Thanks Sterling!
For St. Patties day sterling made a shepherds pie. It was wonderful and he just made it up. Man I want to learn how to just make things up like he does.
It was also Sterling's mom's birthday in March. We went out to the cheescake factory and then the next day we went out again to celebrate her birthday and our brother in laws birthday. Unfortunately we didn't take any pictures so here is an older picture of Sterling's parents. I like them a lot and appreciate all they do for us. Susan is such a great mom with all of the kids.
Again I have to add another flower picture. These are the flowers I arranged for Susan's birthday gift.
As for everything else, we've been keeping busy. Sterling has been doing a bunch of maintenance on our cars such as changing oil, changing our fuel filters etc. Sterling was doing some things on my car and found this:
The exhaust manifold cracked on my car. I think I've been driving with it cracked for a long time. We decided that we are just going to leave it because it doesn't cause any problems for the car. LUCKY. phewph
This is my first baby papoose. It is soooo soft! Now that I have learned how to do it I am going to make more out of cuter colors.
So that's a summary of what we've been doing lately. It's been nice to relax a little bit this weekend. Hope you all had a great weekend.

Frogurt
I love this new frozen yogurt place in Draper at12300 and 260 east called Frogurt. I guess it is part of a chain store called Yozen Frogurt, but in Utah it's called Frogurt. It is so yummy. They have a ton of different flavors to choose from and it's all self serve. They also have a lot of different toppings you can put on it from candy bars and fruit to cereal and nuts. They charge you .35 cents an ounce and me sterling filled a huge bowl for 5 bucks. So anyway this is my new favorite treat. I highly recommend this place.

The past couple of weeks have been really busy that I haven't even taken time to post much. I wish I could get pictures of everything, but here are highlights of what I did get. My brother Teag got married on the 6th. It was a nice ceremony.
This is a picture of him and his wife Kiah 

These are all of the girls in the family now. It's nice to get the number of girls up
This is the bouquet that I made for Kiah. I made my brother's boutaniere too.
