Spaghetti for Dinner

. . . and a BATH!

Sleepover

Patrick had his first "sleepover" this week with his friend Miles. Miles wasn't really spending the night, but he was at our house until after bedtime. Here is a picture of the boys in their jammies, with a bowl of popcorn and their blankies, ready to watch a movie. We watched Mulan because of the cool dragon, according to Miles.

Before and After

This is what our sweet handsome boy looked like before church . . .

And after . . .

I was spraying off the sidewalk because it rained yesterday after we did yard work and dirt got everywhere. Patrick is not physically capable of staying out of water, so I took off his clothes and let him have some fun.

Freezer

We found a freezer on craigslist this week, and inside there is already . . .

yummy strawberry jam!

. . . and tasty, tasty meat. (We are not vegetarians!)

Our Second Home

As soon as he is done with breakfast, before he is dressed, he brings me his shoes and says, "go, go?"

Another Calling

I got another calling yesterday as Ward Activity Chairperson. My good friend Becky was previously doing this job and then they put her in Primary, so I guess this is what I get for helping out so much at the last activity! I am excited though, because as Reed points out to me often, I have control issues and I love being in charge of things.

I am going to start brain-storming, and if any of you have had a really great ward activity that you would like to tell me about, I would really appreciate the ideas.
