Stake Conference

Today was our Stake Conference. Mom worked so hard to get another packet done in our reverence books & the kids actually did pretty good during the meeting. Two hours is a long time for anyone & we didn't get their early enough for the soft seats. There was some great talks. When we got home Dad got ready to leave. He had to go to Boise. Xander said, "How come he gets to got." Everyone said their goodbyes and then we all had quiet time. When we woke up the kids played outside for a little while. For dinner Mom made something so perfect. She made a pork roast & the kids ate it up like candy. Xander said it was the bestest thing he ever had in the whole world. Kaitlyn said it was her bestest thing and Staci said it was the best meat she has ever had. Mom asked, "Better than Dad's. The kids response was funny. They just smiled and didn't say a word. Mom will never be as good of a cook as Dad but she was very happy with the way this turned out. It was so tender & we also had asparagus & fresh tomatoes. For family home evening we learned about the prophets & the kids rememberd things we had talked about before. That just makes Mom smile because she wonders at times if anything gets through.

Learning to Hula

Today was a big day for Kaitlyn. We registered her for Kindergarten. It didn't quite go as planned for Mom though. We all got up early with Staci and took her to school. Then we got in line for the registration. Mom was feeling pretty good because we were like 12th one there. But as we waited for 45 minutes and got up to the front of the line they wouldn't put Kaitlyn's name on the list because we didn't have prove of our address. Mom wasn't aware that we needed it since we already have one child at the school and they should have this on file. They said they could give her the paperwork but that she couldn't be added to the list until they can verify where we live. Mom had to go home. She was furious and hoped that we could still get Kaitlyn into this school. Here in Pocatello they have open enrollment so you can take your kids where ever you want. This doesn't make any sense why it matters where you live then anyways but Mom hurried as quickly as she could...

This morning the kids all slept in but we had to get them going since today was going to be a busy day. We made pancakes & eggs for breakfast. After we ate it was time for Staci to say good bye to Cami & take her home. They had a fun sleepover although Staci has been one onwry girl every since. So it will be a few weeks before she can have another sleep over, that is for sure. We left to go and get Dad's new toy, a new BBQ grill. We got it at Costco for a little more money than Mom had originally thought when Dad started searching a few months ago. But this grill has everything; an oven, ice box, a searing station, griddle and more. It is everything Dad wants in a BBQ. But now Dad can do all the big cooking outside and not use up the kitchen for the big dinners that he puts on for people. Dad is a great cook and Mom's know this will get plenty of use. Well we got home and then had to get Xander changed to be ready for his big game. It was his first t-ball game today and...
