Sunday- Ammon was baptized 2 weeks ago. It was such a special day for him and we had a wonderful celebration. It was fun preparing for it and the day turned out perfect. I took pictures to document everything. Ammon with his father and grandfathers (before and after baptism), the decorations, food, guests, etc. Do you notice something missing? Yeah, I had the camera in my hand the whole time so there are no pictures of me with Ammon on his special day. For shame! So I handed the camera over to Emilee after church and we reenacted his baptism day. Now I have a picture a few weeks late.
Monday- This diet is starting to drive me crazy. So many foods have been taken from my diet. We are gradually adding foods back in to see how my body reacts to them. Last week we added beef, tomatoes, and eggs back in. The beef and tomatoes went really well. The eggs not so well. I almost cried. Now I’m going to try just egg whites and see if I do okay with them. I’m praying I do. This is my new favorite salad, mixed greens, spinach, red onions, strawberries, blueberries and cucumbers.
Tuesday- We had a Moms and Future Missionaries party at church. We played games, learned about the moms and sons, the boys learned how to sew a button and tie a tie, then we had treats. It was a fun night with the boys. What do you think of Zach’s tie? Hmmm, a little short maybe?
Wednesday- Every morning I exercise with a friend at the high school track. We go early in the morning and leave just as the high school kids start arriving. The mornings are getting colder and darker. I’m not sure how much longer we’ll be able to go to the track. I don’t do well exercising outside once it starts snowing. My lungs don’t love it.
Thursday- Today was Whitney’s birthday. We met at Costa Vida in Murray for a birthday lunch. I’m so glad everyone was able to make it. Hubby came from work, I brought Zach, Ammon, and Emilee since they were out of school for UEA, Chris and Adam came and of course Ty and Maddux. We took over 4 tables in the corner of the restaurant and were probably louder than we should have been. It was fun!
Friday- The boys and their inventions. This one is a lawn chair on top of 2 skate board hooked together with another board. They worked on it for a couple days and have been pulling each other around on it all day today. Zach added a pillow to the seat later. Apparently it was rough on the hiney.
Saturday- I took some family photos of a great family today. They were so fun to take pictures of and did such a great job. I took my boys to the photo spot earlier to get some shots of them and to see how the area would work out. It is a beautiful spot but there are new signs up. Does “no trespassing” signs on the buildings just pertain to the buildings? That’s how I interpreted it.
