Draper Temple

So I finally just spur of the momment decide that Nate and I are going to the temple TODAY. We leave ASAP after work and get to the Draper Temple. They said that you don't need reservations anymore. HOwever when we got there they weren't taking reservations anymore, but they were honoring the people's reservations that had already made them awhile ago. So we decided to do inititories and that would be good. Well of course Nate got right in and out in 30 min. I however waited just 30 min to get in and only did three names and finally had to leave because I knew that Nate was waiting on me So in one hour I only did three names. Our friends went a little later than us and were going to do sealings and didn't get into the 7:00 pm session for that either. It is still WAY buzy there and not enough workers. I'm going to the South Jordan one for a while or I'll go way early in the morning on an off day when no one else is there.
I hadn't been to the temple in a year. ONce I had Connelly I just was so busy and the time flew. I can't let that Happen again. I need to go next week in the middle of the week. THat is my GOAL!!!!
Today our neighborhood was flooded. Our backyard is a mud hole and mud and rocks filled our trench to build the retaining wall in so that has to be re-dug out. Our in laws house was a little flooded but their neighbors house was drenched and Utah Distaster Control has been there cleaning up for hours. I think we might need to build an ARK soon and get two of each living animal together, boy and girl of course, and start praying. What do you think?

oh man that sucks bad! I was wondering if you got flooded when I was watching the news. We didn't get near the amount of rain that you guys did.

Sun Valley, Idaho 2021

We stayed at a cute log cabin by the path that goes from Sun Valley to Hailey. There was a huge open field where we were able to throw the ball and play with the dogs in the snow. We ate lunches out and cooked the other meals in the cabin.  Connelly got  the French dip, Nate got the Pastrami, Kate got Macaroni salad and I got the Acai bowl! This was our fourth year going to SunValley.  We love to shop at the  thrift store, Gold Mine.  We found a lamp, board games, Sorrel snow boots for kate, beanies, and Corral plates for the kitchen!! GOLD MINE! Connelly went to Bald Mountain for the first time.  He was able to ski just as fast if not as fast as me.  The ski runs there are so long.  I never took the kids because they are  so long and I thought they wouldn't last two runs.  Connelly and I did 5 runs!!  It was so fun.  Then we got the souvenir pins for Dolla...

2020 Update on kids and life

This year the kids did home school from March 2020 until the end of the school year. It was crazy. I would have never known the words Pandemic or Social distancing until 2020. We ended up playing games every night for about 4 hours at the beginning of the pandemic. We made it through the school year. Then we started school in the fall with in person class and we have been so lucky to get through to Christmas break with no breaks from school and we even went five days aweek. Connelly is in 7th grade this fall. He is doing good with all A's so far. He thought he had a B in one class the first term and miracle of all miracles somehow it turned to an A- last minute. He was promised a phone if he gets straight A's for the next two years, 7th and 8th grade. He has worked really had on keeping an eye on his grades. He really is a good kid. I love him so much. He loves to Ski, Ninja, and ride my new mountain bike. I will need to get him a mountain bike next year. ...

Random thoughts

So this post is a combination of what I've been thinking the past little bit: First, this morning, I didn't do anything with myself because I was going to wear a hat to class, Anatomy 2320, and so I just picked my zits and got Connelly to go to my mother in laws, and left. Yes left without the freaking hat. I didn't comb my hair, didn't put make up on, and left the house red, picked on ugly zit face. What was I thinking. oh well, it isn't like I even talk to anyone in class or having an affair with my teacher so no biggy. Second, I took a test in my anatomy class Monday, and I thought for sure we would get our tests back today. WE DIDN"T. so I have to anticipate my score another 6 days. HHHHHHHHHHHHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU...... Connelly must be getting more teeth. He is Onery. He will be cute however about 10 minutes before he goes to be. He is really ticklish and giggly late at night. So then it makes it hard to want to put him in bed because he i...
