Revolving door
We've had a bit of a whirlwind weekend, a revolving door of comings and goings. And emotions.
G's parents arrived on Thursday for a quick visit.
Lauren arrived home at 6 Sunday morning, happy and exhausted.
Maddy left last night to stay with a good friend for a day before camp.
Then, lots of packing and laundry and a flurry of departures this morning to airport, train station, girls' camp.
{Ready, break!}
Oh, and quietly at the center of all this revolving...G was sustained as bishop of our ward yesterday.
{Speechless}
Good thing I have long stretches of hours ahead of me to slow down, take a breath, and ponder things.
Happy Monday!

my heart both rejoices and breaks for the new calling... it will change your life.
enjoy your trip! i'm totally fascinated by it and looking forward to hearing your reviews.
Wow! That's a big weekend. Enjoy your trip (the train ride...and the next five years)!
OH. MY. GOODNESS! You might need another blog. " The Bishops Wife". I can't wait for all the new and exciting posts.
I selfishly dread a big responsibility calling for my husband, especially with his work responsibilities. That is why since the onset of our marriage I have always accepted big responsibility callings which automatically relinquish him.
What about you? Were you released?
As much as I wouldn't want it, I know that the consecration of time while a family supports a bishop is also a time of great blessings. Good luck Annie!
NO. FREAKING. WAY.
That is awesome! G will be fantastic! Sad for you all to not seem him for the next 5-7 years, but he will be an amazing bishop.
So did they release you or are they going to leave you in YW? Guess you can just ask Greg!
You will be the perfect Bishop's wife and he will be a perfect Bishop. Can't wait to hear all about your train trip. Don't leave out any details.
holy moly.
That's a LOT. He'll be fabulous-- he is fabulous. As are you.
Oh my goodness. Bishop! Wow. That's something!
Congratulations! He'll make a great Bishop! Our prayers are with you both! J & K
