WENDY HAUER
My husband, Allan, and I have two grown children living in Montana and New Mexico. I am the middle child of five and Allan is an only child so he had a rude awakening when we married. I have a degree in Home Economics Education from BYU. We have been in the ward for six years. I was born into the church. For most of the six years I have been in an Arlington ward I have had the most fun calling ever. I am a visiting teacher to the inactive sisters. I started out with 64 but now am down to 24 sisters. I also write an original poem each month to make a birthday card for Relief Society sisters. I love to read and am in the middle of eighteen books (including the Book of Mormon!) I love to quilt and am now working on numbers 155,156, and 157. Most of them I give away. I love to write and write at least one poem a month and am planning on writing one short short story a month. I have a compelling urge to paint, and am working on finishing a painting each month for the coming year. I enjoy long stitch needle point crochet ,cross stitch, cooking and making up recipes.1.
