Max Powers Update-
I have had many of you asking to know how my new nephew Max is doing. First of all, thank you very much for your concerns and prayers. I have no doubt that they are being answered. Max is doing awesome.
As I previously noted, he was born at 3 pounds and 3 ounces. The latest update is that he is now 4 pounds 1 ounce. (I just realized that I ate the same weight in burritos over the last two days...Go Del Taco!)

On a personal note...for those who might not have heard...I can no longer stay up late during the week. I have been asked to teach Seminary every morning at 6 AM to the Sophomores in our stake. For those of my friends who are not Mormon, Seminary is a weekday class that high school students take to study the scriptures and the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I have to say that on the one hand I am very excited about this new opportunity, and on the other hand, I am scared spit-less.

Funny...I always thought you had to be married to teach Seminary. I asked the Stake President twice if he knew that I was single. He said that it was ok, they just won't be calling me as a bishop any time soon. I didn't think that was very funny.

Finally...in honor of the Simpsons and Max:
