Thank Goodness It's Friday!

I love Friday's!

After dropping the big kids off at their schools, we went shopping (a typical Friday activity).

We did Walmart Pick-up instead of going into Walmart.  Walmart Pick-up is a lifesaver!  I shop online and as long as I spend over $30 a Walmart worker does my shopping for me and brings my groceries out to my car!  It's fantastic.  I don't use it all the time though because there are some things that I have to actually go inside of the store for.  But when I use it...I love it!

After Walmart we went to Sam's Club and loaded up the cart.  Then had one more stop at Winco.  There is a type of frozen chicken that we like to buy at Winco and I also like to buy their bagels.  I can get a dozen bagels for under $5.  They are really good bagels.  I cut the bagels in half, put cream cheese in the middle, put them each in individual sandwich bags and then put them in the freezer.  It makes for very easy lunches to pack the kids for school.  I just pull a bagel straight out of the freezer and it thaws out by lunch time.

After putting all of the groceries away and doing a quick tidy of the house, the kids and I soaked our feet in a hot tub.  My feet are always hurting and the hot tub always feels so nice!



I didn't want the kids to get wet...just their feet.  But of course William jumped in the water, diaper and all. 



Caitlyn asked me to take a picture of her because I said that she looked extra beautiful today.  Bunny had to be in the picture, of course.


I made homemade pizza for dinner.  It's supposed to be raining all day tomorrow.  I am supposed to go on a 7 mile run tomorrow...so I decided to go tonight instead.  While the kids were watching their Friday Family Movie, I hit the gym and ran 7 miles on the treadmill.  Not my favorite thing to do, but at least it's done and over with and I can enjoy tomorrow without having to worry about squeezing a run in.

Tomorrow will be busy!  We are looking at a house that we are thinking of buying!  I haven't mentioned it on here...I will post pictures tomorrow.  It is our dream home.

Mason has his first basketball game tomorrow.

Mason also has a birthday party at Rock-n-Jump to go to tomorrow.

And we are feeding dinner to the Elders and a new couple from our ward.

Also, someone is stopping by to look at our home to see if they want to buy it (if we end up selling and moving to our dream home).  Somehow we have to find the time to clean and make the house look decent amidst all of the business...it'll happen!

2021 Summary

 2021...What a year! Some Highlights: I read the Book of Mormon 4 times this year (one time I finished in 29 days!) We studied the Doctrine and Covenants for Come follow Me! Lizzie Started Highschool (and seminary)! William started Kindergarten! I got depressed being home without the kids...so I got my first job in 14 years! I was called to be the ward Young Women President in January. Jon is still serving in the Bishopric, this year as the 2nd Counselor. Bryce was ordained to the office of a Deacon and serves as the Deacon Quorum President. Jon broke his foot in March and had to have surgery. Our fruit trees produced no fruit this year, which was sad. Lizzie was extremely sick for about 2 months.  She had ovarian cysts, major constipation, and valley fever! We had the opportunity to listen to two General Conferences, which are my favorite holiday's. We went to Last Vegas after Christmas 2020, we went to Utah for Kynzlee's baptism, we went to Utah for the 4th of July holiday, ...

Feeling Awful

 I feel awful about something that I did today.  Well, something that I DIDN'T do.  I feel like the worst person in the world.  I feel like horrible.  I was prompted to do something and I ignored the prompting.  It's eating me up. It's short, so I'll explain it here. I went to Relief Society today.  The first time in about three years.  I sat with Jon's Mom.  I noticed a girl sitting in front of me who was sitting alone.  I chatted with her.  I had the thought to sit next to her so she wouldn't have to sit alone, but I didn't feel like I could leave Sandy.  I didn't want to make Sandy feel bad by leaving her so I ignored the prompting.  Then I went and accompanied a song on the piano.  While I was playing I had the thought, again, that I needed to sit next to this girl.  I decided that I would sit next to her on my way back instead of sitting next to Sandy.  However, as I walked back, someone else was sittin...

The Last of the Spring Break, 2019 Posts

It's been a long 2 weeks!  It's been so wonderful though and I am really not ready for the kids to go back to school tomorrow.  I love having them home and I love having our freedom and no real responsibilities.  Summer couldn't come soon enough! We found out this week that Grandpa Duncan had a stroke.  We were all so sad.  We all fasted for him and have been praying every day for his recovery.  Even 7-year-old Mason, who has never fasted before, wanted to fast for Grandpa.  He dd so well and I was so proud of him!  We can hardly wait until June when we can visit Nana and Grandpa in person. I didn't realize it, but one of the days this week I did Walmart Pick-up (where I order things on-line and then the worker brings the groceries out to my car) and accidentally ordered A TON of these chocolate eggs!  They truly are the best chocolate egg in the world, so I'm not really complaining...but what in the world are we going to do with the...
