Not much has changed since last month, so this will be a short letter. Becky and I just sold our car yesterday. We sold it for less than we wanted to, but enough to cover our needs. We will use the money to commit to the West Virginia school. They require a substiantial amount of money in order to hold a seat. Luckily the money counts towards the first year's tuition, so I guess it's not quite highway robbery. They will come pick up the car Friday evening and then we will be a one car family. It will be tough for us, but I suppose that if generations of our ancestors could survive without cell phones or cars we can get by with just one car.
Becky and I have been called as ward missionaries in our married ward. The ward mission wants to meet with every family in the ward by the end of the year and encourage them in their missionary work. Becky and I have been assigned 7 or 8 families. We have had great experiences so far. It's fun teaching with Becky. She and I have never had that opportunity before. She must have been a great missionary, because she is still a good teacher after 3 or 4 years. I think the Lord is giving us a chance to work together in a calling, because up until now He's had us work separately. I am grateful for the opportunity.
We hope that you all have a great holiday season and that you have plenty of things to be thankful for this Thanksgiving.
Stewart and Becky

WV eh? I see you just had to out-do Derik for farthest freak of the 4!
That's fun that you get to teach with Becky. Tamara and I have only done so as primary substitutes a couple times.
Yep, that's why I chose WV, I wanted to be the farthest away. :) I passed up a full-ride scholarship to Best-Med-School-on-the-Planet because it wasn't far enough away from home. Don't tell Becky or she'll kill me, she's not too excited about moving to WV.
Do you all remember Bill Weed from Rigby High? He is from WV and said that they used to make fun of the kids at WVSOM and called them nerds. I guess it's the perfect place for me. :)
WV is opening its arms for you. I was just looking at the Lewisburg Chamber of Commerce and found a link to "The North House." I really wish that Winona would have built a house just for us when it learned that we were coming...
