We had few normal busy family weekends which included lots of craziness and fun. We got new appliances-fridge, microwave and dishwasher and Greg spent quite a few hours trying to install them. He did a fabulous job, and we need lots of help from our little Callie to reach around the back cupboards with her skinny arms. After quite a lot of work, we got it all solved and I LOVE my kitchen. The appliances look and work wonderfully and I am so thankful we were able to get them.
Annabelle and I had an activity day dinner. We had yummy soups and then did a few activities. This one was a blast. Annabelle had to try and throw cheeseballs on the shaving cream on my head. She got 1! So fun!
Greg and I cam home from a date the other night to this. It was repcious. They were all talking and getting along and playing and I loved just watching and listening for a bit. I got really sick afterwards for a couple days so this was a great memory.
I taught a bread class for relief society. Always lots of fun and I LOVE the smell of bread. I need to make this wheat bread more often, everyone loves it and it tastes amazing. I can hardly eat white bread because of it.
There is a lot of wrestling that goes on in my home and I don't love it, but I know it is good for the kids. Since the boys are getting so big, it is a little scary and probably too rough for the girls to join in.
We hosted 2 thanksgivings in a row (Sunday and Sunday). Luckily I only had to make the turkey once. The top pictures is with Greg's family. We had about 30 people and lots of fun playing games outside and chatting inside. That amazing turkey was for my cousins last night and it was DIVINE. It tasted amazing and smelled amazing and I was sad that my stomach has shrunk some and I can't eat as much. I love family and I love good food. I am thankful that we are surrounded but wonderful family and I am REALLY excited to see my parents and two of my sister's families this week for yet another thanksgiving.
The girls and I went to the high School performance of The Little Mermaid. It was fantastic and I am so glad that we have so many wonderful performances we can see. Earlier in the week we saw the middle school's performance of Peter Pan. These kids are so talented and i look forward to seeing my kiddos on the stage some day.
Greg spent a bunch of hours fixing his car again. That truck!!! This time was the biggest and craziest fix. When I saw a giant black pipe that he had taken out I was a little worried. But so far, so good. This truck keeps going. I would love for it to hold out for the boys to drive but I am not sure that is possible.
Nathan had his first climbing competition and he did AWESOME! There were a bunch of schools there but he got first place for Lehi and he had some fantastic climbs. It is so fun to hear Nathan talk about climbing, he loves it and loves improving. So proud of this kid!
