New Stake
...but we're not in it. My parents and my brother Brent are, though. Yup, my parents jumped from the stake north of us to the stake south of us. Ah the joys of ambiguous geography. Our ward does pick up a few families that are close enough to our building that no one wanted to make them drive all the way to Kyle (just as my parents lost a few, for similar reasons). Strangely enough, we could have sworn that that strip of land was already in our ward. Ah, well. Hopefully it'll make up for the dozen+ families that have/will move to Parkwood since last summer. Anyway, there's two wards from New Braunfels, plus Seguin, San Marcos (family & university), Plum Creek, Parkwood and Bastrop. We'll miss you, Brent and Regan. It was nice to have the option of sitting with family at Stake Conferences. Good luck with the new stake, and we hope the transition goes smoothly for everyone.

Wow, that makes 4 stakes in the Austin area (to which I include Bastrop & San Marcos). That's really amamzing! Remember when there was only one? What's the new stake's name?
There are people in our ward who live in Mt. Horeb that are lobbing for a ward split, but they'd have to include a stake split w/ it since there are so many units already, and I don't thing they're ready to do that...
Brent just thinks it's so funny that there's going to be a Kyle Stake. Out of all the random towns they could've named it after. We're really excited about not having to drive so far (once they build our new building) and being able to do more ward activities once we're not so spread out. And a few other exciting benefits. Pres. Palmer mentioned our ward being renamed, so we'll see what happens! Only a month left to stew about it all!
