Getting old

Over the weekend at my office they did some remodeling. When I came in on Monday morning there were walls missing, furniture rearranged, and dust over everything. The word on the street is we're getting new furniture in the near future. Until then however we've got the old stuff.

So yesterday I was attempting to put my desk back to a state of normalcy and I decided that I would lift heavy things by myself. I had just picked up one piece of furniture about a foot off the ground when my back suddenly disagreed with the action that I was taking. I dropped the now incredibly heavy object and proceeded to walk around like an old man. I ended up going home early yesterday and today I'm laying around thinking that I wished my back would stop hurting. I'm going to the doctor today, maybe he'll give me some magic pills to stop the pain.....we'll see.

JJ's Baptism

Yesterday afternoon I got to be a part of a great milestone for JJ. JJ came to church camp this year and was incredible, especially since it was his first year. Shortly after he told me he wanted to be baptized, but he wanted to wait until his cast came off because he wanted all of him to be baptized. So on Sunday night I saw him and asked if he still wanted to get baptized. He said yes and we decided to do it the next night. JJ's family and some friends came out and it was incredible. The afternoon was perfect. JJ truly is a great person and I'm so excited to see what the future holds for him. Below are a few pictures from the baptism.

Matching Chaco's how cute.
