Another week, another blog

Another busy week; I have resorted to using bullets because I am tired.

Tritan's class had a Book Buffet. Each kid picked a book to read with another family member and then we made food that went with the book for a buffet. Like for Charlie and the Chocoloate Factory the girl brought Wonka candy. Tritan and I read The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman. It was a really great book--you can read my review here. We made a cupcake cake decorated like a graveyard with white ghosts. This had to be my favorite family project ever--books and food!

• Athena had her ballet recital. She looked like a fairy in her costumes and did a great job. I was really pleased with the whole school. The high school dancers were beautiful. She is going to start pointe this fall so I am glad to have found a good ballet school.


• Donna and Phil were sealed this weekend in the Twin Falls temple. We are so excited for them. Brian was able to attend, and I know he was happy to see so much family.




• We had our Visiting Teaching Conference on Sunday. I decided to go for a labor intesive handout, which I instantly regretted. I blame it on the internet. I would never have gotten the idea for these on my own. I asked several sisters to share their thoughts on VT and they did a great job. My secretary put on a skit and our choristor sang a beautiful song, so all in all it was a success.


• Our nephew Garrett got baptized this weekend, too. Congratulations, Garrett.
