New calling for me

A few weeks ago while we were at the temple as a Presidency, the Stake RS president told us that she was moving to Tampa.  We were all in shock!! I loved serving with these women.  I learned so much from them and this calling came at a time when I needed it so much.  My mom had just passed away and having these three ladies in my life to help me grow and teach me was what I needed.  They truly loved me, and they showed their love for me all the time.

Last Sunday the Stake president met with Brent and I and I was released and called as the Stake Relief Society 1st counselor.  I am excited to work with my dear friend Johanna Lopez who is now the Stake Relief Society president and Peggy Snow who is also an awesome lady!

A trip to the ER

These pictures make me sad.  We had to take Conner to the ER early Saturday, at 4:00 AM and then again Sunday morning at 6:00AM.  The poor kid has the croup and could not breathe.  It is so sad to see him struggle to be able to breathe. Kids this age normally don't get the croup, they are too old to get it, even the doctors said it.  But because he had asthma as an infant he is prone to get these coughs.

Fun Zumba Class

We had a fun Zumba class last night for the Windy Ridge and Lake Reams Ward additional RS meeting.  There were 5 instructors and we each taught 3 songs.  We had so much fun!! I was very tired by the time I was finished, I took an hour Zumba class in the morning and then practiced my songs during the afternoon and then we had our one hour class that night.

Happy Father's Day to our dad!!

Parker

I can't believe he is going to be in eleventh grade this year!!  On Tuesday he starts Pre-calculus at Valencia College here in Orlando, through the dual enrollment program at OCPS.  We took him over to the campus so that he would know where the building and the classroom were.

My Surgery

My surgery went well on Wednesday.  Today I feel pretty good.  I feel so good, I forget that I have to be careful and not lift anything over 10 pounds for two weeks.  The sisters in the Ward have been wonderful and have brought me lots of wonderful meals.

My Zumba friends

This picture was taken at the Windy Ridge Spanish Ward activity.  The sister next to me in the black shirt is the RS president in the Ward (Johanna) and she invited Natty and I and our families to come to the activity.  Johanna's husband was the DJ and he played our Zumba songs and we got to dance a couple of the routines, it was funny!!!

Here we are at Brother Ordinola's 50th birthday party.

Sister Ordinola is standing next to me in the blue dress.  They had reserved seats for us and we were seated at the YMCA table.  These are the ladies from the YMCA/Zumba.
