Dear Elder Schenewark,
The fact that you were able to wake up and go on an early morning sunrise hike this morning made my mother heart happy. I know you have wanted to do something like this on your preparation day for a long time. I hope your entire day was wonderful. I'm sorry we missed your phone call, but I am glad Breyer was able to talk with you again, as she is on spring break, and show you her frogs, Humphrey and Harold.
We have no plans for spring break. Tarleton State University decided there would only be a half week, so there are classes through Wednesday, and I'm back to work. So we went hard and heavy today. Miller and a friend hit the frisbee golf course when Dad was heading to work. Sawyer had track practice. I went to the laundromat with the wash, and picked the frisbee boys up when I finished. When we got home, we had three more friends over for Miller. Sawyer went with his friend Matthew to his church to work in the food pantry for National Honor Society service hours. Miller spent most of the time on Bentwater's sport court. Monte burritos for brunch and Papa John's pizza for supper. Miller went bowling, and Sawyer hit with Matthew at the Edge, and met a girl friend for ice cream.
We purchased a washer and dryer last weekend, and it wasn't being delivered until next Monday. Instead of having them take the machines away, we asked on the church Facebook group if anyone was interested, and Matt and Brittany Gammons took them away. Hence, the laundromat. It's soooooo creepy there. Frequent flyers typically have no teeth, no belts, no socks, no shower. So glad it's only for one week.
Sawyer played in his second baseball tournament Thursday through Saturday. The second game started at 5 and I pull into town just as the game is ending. Unbeknownst to all of the baseball coaches, Sawyer had arranged to also participate in the track meet at the high school in pole vaulting. He had one hour between the games and spent it qualifying in a 12 foot jump, hooking a second place result out of four schools. He's been able to sneak in a track practice here and there, so he's pleased with 2nd place.
Miller has begun baseball but his team has practiced without him for two weeks due to school conflicts, including track tryouts. The coach scheduled an extra practice Friday just to get him on the field with the team. He was chosen to run the 4x400, 4x100, and the 200. His field events are high jump and running long jump.
That's about the scoop for the week. Dog training consisted of the yearly physical fitness exam - five miles full packs, under 90 minutes. We fed the missionaries on Tuesday - all three. It's been a while since we've had them eat inside the home.
Send us a quick update! We'd love to receive a letter or even a note from you!
Love,
Mom
