New Bishop

Those of you who used to live near me may be interested that yesterday we got a new bishop in our ward. I dont like to use last names in my blog but if you look in my Night in Paris post the our new leader is pictured with the bunny ears over his head! He will be great. This is the first time that Todd and I have been really good friends personally with the our ward bishop and his wife. Andrea was primary pres and I was her counsellor. Brandon was excited because he may get to babysit for the bishop's boys again! The counsellors are fairly new to the ward. - I guess compared to us at least. If you want more info email me at toddlisaellis@msn.com. I dont check the gmail one connected to the blog too much.

I just got a note that they are doing a surprise bishops book for our previous bishop --- so those of you who are interested in doing a little page or memory send me an email and I will get you the info ASAP.

We also will be getting a brand new chapel next year and we can walk to it from our house!!!!

Christen's First Grade class

Christen's first grade teacher is having a baby very soon and the class has a baby shower for her . She would not tell us the sex of the baby until that party so we gave her casseroles. (always useful) She had all of the kids around her and had her little girl tell us all they were having a sister. Later Christen was being so cute and silly with a few of her classmates!!

Blue and Gold and Bear award for Trevor!

We recently had our Blue and Gold Dinner for cubs. It was fun and went well. We did a taco bar and desserts. Trevor earned his Bear award and one gold and 2 silver arrows. Yeah for Trevor!
