First week of September

Monday: There was no school. So, it was almost so boring because of kid's homework...yet turned out terrific because we decided to go to Red Butte Gardens and it was FREE!!  Oh yes, I was happy. There were legos to look at, lots of pretty plants and it was nice to get out of the house.

Tuesday: School....Helped out at Heartland with the fundraiser also helped translate the school newsletter for Spanish. Soccer practice for William.

Wednesday: School. Soccer practice for Caleb.  Went to the AP European History meeting for kids who are interested in going to New York in March.  Sounds fun and expensive.

Thursday: Made lots of freezer meals.  Soccer practice for Peter.  Then I started to freak out after practice when Peter told me that sometimes his vision blacks out.  Only for a few seconds, like he is blinking, no fainting or anything, but it does black out!  WHAT!

Friday: Made lots more freezer meals.  Took Peter to the eye doctor after school.  Doctor pronounced that Peter has healthy eyes.  Not sure why his vision blacks out.  Could be dehydration, migraine, low blood sugar...but it is not his eyes.  That was terrific news!  It was seriously such an answer to fervent praying on my part all day long!  Now, on Tuesday, we go to the regular doctor to see if he has anything to say.

 Saturday: Rob headed to the cabin to get some painting done.  So, I was solo-mom at soccer.  Watching 3 games at the same time meant I hardly watched anyone but walked from field to field trying to watch.  After soccer we headed down to the Payson Temple.  While Caleb and Peter did baptisms...

William walked around with me and we took Haley's baptism pictures.  William is a little stud and so sweet to just chill while Haley and I walked around, and around, and around, getting the photos she wanted.  I think they will turn out great.

Aug 26-Sept 2

Always going. So, I will try to remember the important stuff.
Monday: School
Tuesday: School, soccer practice
Wednesday: Rolled my ankle before school!  You do not need to see the picture.  Suffice it to say, I immediately being icing it and being gentle, Friends of Scouting was that night and I had to be able to walk!  By 6pm my ankle seemed fine,  a small bump but I was able to run around just fine.  Yeah! Also on Wednesday, Peter is moving on up in scouts, whether he enjoys it all or not, he is getting there.  Caleb also received 2 more merit badges and his Silver Palm!

Thursday: Finished a terrific table runner after many hours of sewing. Phew! 2 soccer practices
Friday: School, Caleb came home so excited from work.  He was "promoted" from a sub at Heartland to a more permanent position!  He was very excited.  Plus - mowing lawns and some homework
Saturday: Soccer Saturday.  3 games for the boys- a win, a tie and a loss. Got our last snowie of the year and it was tasty! Then watched more soccer that night by Real.

Sunday: Taught Haley's primary class.  Family Home Evening for Haley's baptism countdown - 6 weeks to go and we talked about repentance.  She loved the activity of trying to clean the egg off (dirty egg representing our sins or mistakes making our spirit unclean, when we repent we are washing those sins away but we cannot do it all without Jesus Christ, then the clean egg represents us clean and prefect - ready for Heaven).
