Aahhh........the sound of that word - "break". It could have any other word before it and it sounds like a piece of heaven! Fall break........spring break...........Christmas break.............lunch break..........you name it - it's a slight reprieve from the norm! I'll take it!
HAVE A MARVELOUS WEEK!!!!!
Our fall break is in the form of a 4-day weekend, EXCEPT, we had to attend an inservice Friday so even though the students have 4 days off, teachers have 3 days off. I guess we'll take whatever we can! Don't get me wrong! I love my job, the kids are great, we all have these trials and tribs in our classrooms, but oohhhhh......the breaks are welcome! Especially after a week of getting report cards ready for 33 students - not an easy task but one I like to kick back and say "YES!" when it's done! I still get to stay up late watching a movie or two and sleep in in the morning. (yeah right! My eyes flick open around 6 anyway, even if I don't have to go to work!)
We had stake conference today in which Elder Golden and Elder Leseuer of the Seventys were in attendance to reorganize our stake presidency. What a great meeting! The three brethren who were released have done a phenomenal job at leading the saints in our stake. They will be missed and the three new presidency members, President Williams, President VanWinkle, and President Crandell will be wonderful as well. I know both counselors fairly well but not the new President. He's an attorney in the area and somewhat new to the mountain, been here 4 or 5 years. He's young and has a young family. Seems like the stake presidents are getting younger and younger!
After conference, Duane and I took the teens and drove out to Hawley Lake to view the changing colors brought in by autumn. We were not disappointed! Some areas looked like pictures from Arizona High

Awesome photos, Kim! Fall leaves are wonderful. Either warm temps, or the wrong timings of storms, or who knows, has made this a pretty under-whelming "leaf-watching" month for us. Not many bright reds and yellows right around us. Maybe we need to drive to New Hampshire or Vermont??!
Congratulations on completing all those report cards! Yippee!
Nice pictures - good to get your update sis!
