Well the week has turned rather warm here in a big hurry! I swear it was just last Sunday that it was chilly, windy, cool...not it is over 90 and sunny and toasty! Holly went out yesterday for a little while and came back crispy! I was really surprised how quickly she got burnt!
We had a fun day yesterday. The girls had the usual soccer games and Holly's team lost and Katie's won. Katie's team is still undefeated. She keeps managing to get on great teams. She says they aren't even the same girls that were on her undefeated basketball team. So, cool, eh?!
It really was warm yesterday so two different times the hose was turned on and water fights galore. Earlier it was Dallas and the girls. Later me and Dad joined in. Bryce stayed dry. Old man. Not sure why he didn't wanna play.
After a fantastic BBQ dinner we headed over to the kite festival. The girls each got a book or a kite and then sang with their choir. After their performance they played the free games, took a ride on the train, walked through the booths and then enjoyed a snow cone. It was seriously warm. We were all ready to go home and relax after that!
Dallas is going to have his tonsils and adenoids out. Surgery scheduled 2 days after school lets out. Thursday, May 24th. Poor kid. I hear a humidifier works wonders so we'll have to find one before then to use. Do you remember getting yours out? I don't remember it fondly but dad says it wasn't so bad...what's your memory? No biggie or biggie? They say to allow 7 days with no commitments AT ALL and up to 10 days before you really feel better. Hope it's not that long!
He is also going to start the Diesel Mechanic program June 4. He is pretty excited about it.
He has been applying for some jobs and hopes to be pretty busy with work and school before long. He always seems to have a cash flow problem. Dave doesn't keep him quite busy enough!
Rachel Riley just got put in as Primary President today. Big job. I'm sure she'll be great at it. Just hope it doesn't kill her scouting. She is our g.s. leader and that takes a lot of time and effort too!
Can't think of anything else exciting to tell you. Life is good here and between work and YW and kids and hubby don't really have time to do much but enjoy it all! This warm weather has made me tired but I'm sure I'll get used to it really soon and be full of spit and vinegar again!
Oh yeah, did dad tell you my diamond fell out of my ring? After about 25 years (with the engagement) of wearing that thing I just looked down and there was no diamond to be found. I have no idea when/where/how I lost it. So Dad being as thoughtful as he is took the initiative and went and found a jeweler to replace the diamond. He got a bigger, better more beautiful diamond and had it back on my hand within about a week. Pretty amazing, huh?! AND he didn't spend too much (which would have made me not too happy, ya know!?) So, like my ring, my marriage is better and more beautiful than it was all those years ago! We are lucky to have such a great relationship and wonderful children.
Keep working hard and doing what's right. You have made an impact on your brothers. They are preparing to get their patriarchal blessings here soon. They got their recommends today and we'll go meet with the patriarch soon. Just gotta make the call, I guess.
Love you lots! Mom.
