So Sam and I started "our" blog, but the site is confusing for me, and I can't change borders and fonts to make it look like I want, so I am going to keep posting on here...and I still feel a lot like "Miss Hall" anyway. I don't always answer when my students call me Mrs. Blackham. I'm working on that. It's been so long that I don't know if anyone still checks my blog, but this way I can at least pretend that I am keeping a journal. I know there was some doubt as to whether Sam and I would actually go through with the wedding...(I am mostly kidding)...but yes, we tied the knot. We have been happily married now for 5 whole weeks. It has flown by, and married life is better than I thought it could be. I started school about 2 weeks after the wedding, and it has kept me busy. I seem to have great students this year and am enjoying school so far (though I would have been happy to wait until at least he MIDDLE of August to start school.)
We went to our new ward for the second time today, and it was weird. They are nice, but after 12 years in a single's ward, it is so different. I think we're both having to adjust to not having callings and being just one of the 300 new people. We had been in the same ward for quite awhile and both had plenty to keep us busy. And did you know they don't call themselves a "family" ward? The best part just might be the kids though. They are loud, but they are way more fun to watch than a bunch of single adults. I'm sure that with a bit more time we will grow to love our ward and feel a bit more a part of it, but for now I will settle for sitting beside a family with lots of little kids.
I can't think of much else to say...the highlight of my week just might have been when I tried to talk to Tallin, my 5-year old nephew, yesterday. He wouldn't talk to me on the phone because he was only in his skivs and couldn't talk to me "naked". What a funny kid. Anyway, I hope my posting will become much more regular now that life has settled down a bit.

I still check it! That's the beauty of google reader. It just tells you when people make new posts--so this way I don't have to scroll through all of my friends to see if there are any updates. It's the best. Well, welcome back to the blogging world! PS I like your background...it's very cute!

The pictures are cute! I will add you to my blog. I am glad all is going great. It took me about a year to get adjusted to the family ward but I love it. It is fun watching all the cute kids during sacrament meeting. Our ward is very loud and we atleast one baby born a month. Pretty crazy.
