does anyone else object to the blog subtitle??

one incredibly hot brother and a bunch of crazy girls?? what's up with that? i object. i am not crazy. and i'm a woman, not a girl!! coleen, i hope you were not a culprit in coming up with that.
:)
so, matthew and i thought we would give you a quick update on our lives. things are going pretty well lately. except that it is sunday afternoon, and matthew is in his giddy mode. i don't know why, but he gets that way every sunday after church. on fast sundays, it only gets worse...
so anyway, back to the update. matthew is liking school- he is doing an illustration of jack and the beanstalk for one of his classes. he is also doing a lot of classroom observation, which he has enjoyed. he is trying to figure out which grade he wants to end up teaching.
matthew got called as the secretary in the elders quorum and has been fairly involved in the ward with visits, moving people, and doing home teaching. our ward is a pretty typical downtown ward- with not too many people and lots of callings for anyone who is interested. its been fun, though.
matthew has been great about cooking meals, which is great because i'm always too tired and too hungry to even think about cooking.
as for me- things are going well. i am really liking the YW. we have had basketball the past few weeks and it has been sooooo funny to watch! (i never knew a person could get all the way down the court while dribbling so high that the ball bounces over the head!) anyway, its been fun. we are planning a new beginnings for the next couple of weeks. hopefully it will turn out nicely.
work is OK. i had a lunch meeting with my boss on friday and, amazingly, i didn't get fired. my boss and i mutually agreed to think about my position, and where it is going, though. i'm not quite sure what that means, but i interpreted it to mean that i will not be getting fired for now. i never quite know with her...my boss can be very scary at times. but otherwise, work is going pretty well. i like immigration a lot. and lately i have been able to leave work quite a bit earlier, which leaves time for other things. matthew and i got climbing passes at a local gym last week, so i've started climbing again, which has made me soooo happy. it is so nice to get out and have something to get my mind off work, etc.
ok. this is getting really long. just wanted to give you an update. loves,
heide and matthew
