Last Week of January

Hola my son!  Hooray, P-day again and time for another letter from my favorite missionary.   I love Mondays!

Here are the highlights from our week

*Friday night Dad and I went out to dinner with the Glassetts, it was fun. They are really nice people, very warm and friendly, we had such an enjoyable evening with them! We talked and talked about everything under the sun, but especially our missionaries. Dad and Brother Glassett got along great, he is an assistant soccer coach at Jordan High School so they talked sports a lot of the time. Also, he is a dentist and does humanitarian dental work in third world countries, that was really interesting.  We were so happy to meet them, and glad our missionary sons were able to serve together in Honduras.

*Stefanie is getting braces!  We had our first orthodontist appointment on Thursday, they put spacers between a few of her back teeth so her mouth has been sore for a few days.  The doctor estimated it will take 18 months to get it all done, so she is hopeful she will get them off before you get home. 

*Saturday night the three of us went to a Vocal Point concert at Thanksgiving Point. Those guys are amazing, they put on a great show.  Stefanie said they did a couple of the same songs they had sung at Willowcreek last year when the two of you snuck in (haha) but most of it was original stuff.  So good!
 
*Dad's team lost to Herriman last week, both the JV and Varsity. neither team played well.  Dad is losing hope for them to make it to state.  Two games coming up this week, Tuesday at home against AF, Friday at Lone Peak.  Tough week!  Dad says it is a long shot that we will beat either of them.  

*We are excited for the Super Bowl next Sunday, Rachel and George are hosting the party at their place.  They are funny, Rachel is a big Broncos fan and George likes the Seahawks so it is rivalry week for them.  They each have their team jerseys, hats and jackets they have been wearing all week.  Should be a fun game! Dad is not a Broncos fan, and I was born in Seattle, so we will be cheering with George for the Seahawks!  Does anyone care about the Super Bowl in Honduras?

Spiritual thought of the week from Stefanie:  "Never postpone a prompting."  ~Thomas S. Monson

That is all our news!  We love you!  Work hard this week!  Love, Mom
