Underfoot participated in the Primary program today. He sang a solo in the microphone
and did a good job. He decided before church that he wasn’t going to do
it. We talked about singing, and he said he would for an orange cupcake
and then added a blue cupcake to the order. He gets shy when asked
about what he did. Hurricane wanted to sit with his Dad who is now a Primary
teacher but alas sat with me for sacrament meeting.
This was the last week of our fall break from Joy School. The boys and I
went on two adventures. We went to an air-conditioned castle full of
taxidermied animals and a fall-esqued you-pick apple orchard and pumpkin
patch. The International Wildlife Museum
was better than the zoo Underfoot and Hurricane said. They liked that they could
look at all the animals and touch some of the displays. I liked it
because we stayed together better, and the boys liked it. Apple Annie’s Orchard
is a fun place to pick apples (but the place had picked most the
apples) and to have a picnic. After visiting the tourist attraction, we
went and bought a 40 pound box for 60 cents cheaper a pound. The boys
liked the hay ride the best.
We went to a cake party. The invitation said something about the cake
party being a warm up to the Locey pie party (btw - November 18th - 6 pm
- 8:30 pm). How exciting to have that coming up around the corner. The
party took an exciting turn when all the children were screaming a death
scream because a rather large rattlesnake wanted to join the children
on the trampoline. The firemen got to come and remove the snake.
Apparently children were thrown from parent to parent to get them
inside. It turned out to be lovely party.
Eleven year old Scouts is now held at our house. Sweetheart is thrilled! He
is so excited to have Scouts “closer” than at the church. He attended
the HOA meeting.
With my new position in church, I worked visiting teaching routes. Visiting teaching
is putting women in a companionship of two so they can bring a
spiritual message and check on the other women’s families that they are
asked to visit. Since we are a new congregation all the women needed to
be given the opportunity to say if they would minister to each other or
not. It is wonderful to have done.
We hope you are well and safe.
