Sunday Sunday

Well, today I woke up at 9:00. That's good right? Especially since I was up until 1:00 reading. No more 11:30 for me. Plus it gave me time to finish my book before church started:) My dad called this morning and it was great to hear from him! I've been meaning to call home but I haven't done it. With all the sick germs in our house the last week and a half I was a slacker.
Unfortunately I've had to cross Megan off my favorite kids list. This morning she asked me what year I was born in. I replied '76. She kind of cocked her head to the side and very innocently said, "1876?" I think I will take looking 33 over being 132. She insists she was kidding, but I don't believe her.
So the girls and I went to church today. Besides the fact that the air conditioner was blowing so hard it felt like 12 degrees with wind chill, it was fabulous! Roxanne, Caitlin and Samantha played a violin, violin and piano musical number and they did such a beautiful job. I was very touched. I enjoyed the speakers and whole heartedly listened. After Sacrament Meeting Lori came up to me and asked if I was going to Gospel Doctrine. I have to admit, going home to grab a Dr. Pepper was sounding quite nice, but she put her arm around me and asked me to come with her. Thanks Lori! I'm really glad I stayed. And I have since had my soda, so it's all good. I'm really enjoying my calling with the Beehives. They are very giggly, but they are cute girls with hearts of gold. Courtney gave me the nicest compliment today and it made my whole day. Love moments like that. We had a great lesson on repentance. I think Diane did a great job. Another lesson where I come home and think and ponder. In a good way, not a "I'm a sinner and need to repent" way. I hate those lessons.
So it is shaping up to be quite a great day! The temps are down a little so I shoved the girls out the door. Hopefully we can get some rain! Hope you are having a lovely and relaxing day!

Ahh kids. I swear you must get it when I say I relate to animals eating their young sometimes!
Nice to have a Sunday like that. Helps me to tackle the week and I am a more calm,peaceful mom.
I was bummed and had to get out of Dodge! I made Tony take me up to the mountains! Felt guilty playing hookey, but wanted some cool air and trees. It was Wonderful!

Glad you got some sleep. I hate when I go through times where I can't sleep. I thought Sunday was a good day- Good talks, good lessons, great musical numbers! Thanks for telling Dana about me and my need for clothes- I am super excited!!

Thanks For going with ME to Gospel Doctrine. It's more fun to sit by a friend. Hope you're having fun on your camping trip! If you do, maybe you'll want to go with us camping at the beach next year!!!??
