Lesson #11

So, I realized last night that I taught Relief Society last week and didn't post about it. Here we go...

My lesson was about The Restoration of All Things: The Dispensation of the Fulness of Times. I started with talking about a few of the points that hit me most when I was preparing... Ummm, since it's been a week I'm having remember-y problems ;) Well, however I started it we ended up focusing on visiting teaching. We discussed reasons why we don't do our visiting teaching and how if we each start with ourselves, then eventually the church as a whole will be more ready and prepared for the Second Coming.
I tied everything back in to the topic at hand, ended with my testimony, and added that I was glad this was my last lesson of the year. With that comment, some of the girls asked if I was moving or something. I laughed and said "No. I'm not moving. It's December, so I don't have to teach anymore this year."

I can't believe I've taught 11 times now! I don't feel any better about this last lesson than I did with the first one. I still get so super nervous, but I think maybe it's not nearly as bad as I thought it would have been. 2010 will bring new adventures...

'Tis the Season

I'm glad the Christmas season only comes once a year. I love this season, but it is also one of the most stressful times for me! I am helping with our school play this year (being head accompanist and assistant musical director), I accompany our school choir, I am helping our 3rd grade for their Christmas program (I'm accompanying almost half of the songs they're singing this year), and every year we have a school Christmas sing; all the kids get together in the gym and each grade level sings a couple songs for everyone. I have been asked to play songs for three grade levels this year. I have already recorded songs for some of the other grade levels, so I don't have to do that every year and that's good ;)

I have taken pictures and been to fun things but I don't have time yet to post them... it stresses me out, but what can you do?

Hopefully either this weekend or next week after Wed. I'll be able to update and get on the ball again. Haha
