Sunday

So today was an eventful Sunday.



Forgot I was supposed to play for Choir practice. (winslow reminded me and I made a mad dash for the shower and went to church with my hair in a pony tail!) Ended up not knowing the song, so they had me sing soprano instead of playing the piano. (It's been years since I sang soprano.) We had 1 soprano (me), 1 alto, 2 bass and 2 tenors. It was an interesting practice!


Then I got to sub for the organist. I haven't played regularly in 7 years and last time I played at all was over 3 years ago! This organ was way fancier than I have ever played. Never did figure out how to turn the light on. The old organs have # buttons that you push to make the organ play louder. Well i pushed the button to make it louder (I thought) and it changed the WHOLE SOUND! Sounded like Phantom of the Opera. The chorister had me stop after the first verse and change it back. HA! that made church a little more interesting!


David decided to wear his lion costume to nap. He's so cute. Whenever he sees or talks about a lion he says "roar." When he woke up we heard him talking in his room. Winslow and I went in to investigate and found him STANDING ON HIS DRESSER! looking out the window~ Crazy kid.


Made homemade WHOLE wheat bread. Yummy. Winslow made peanut butter cookies that were to die for! Had to heat the house up like an oven so the bread would raise. Worked on a cookbook for a friend getting married.


And I got to take a nap today.


Church was lots of fun. We are learning about prophets in Primary and I am so enjoying teaching the songs about the prophets. I have asked the Sr. Primary to write down questions they want anwswered and I have challenged them to pray about them and to read their scriptures. I have testified that their prayers will be answered if they prepare for conference. We've had a neat experience. We are learning a new song called, When I Hear The Prophet's Voice. I love it. Our Jr primary has been really small lately, so today I had them Sing Follow the Prophet and clap their hands on their legs, first soft and then loud. They loved it! And even thou we only had 8 kids they did so good and got really into it all.

Abby had her school program this week. She had a singing part and did so well. I love to watch my kids in their programs. I get all teary eyed and proud of my kids. She was so excited to have us there.

Jacob got strep this week, Yuck! But so far no one else has come down with it. Hurray! He did get to spend some fun time at home though. He played his final basketball game and they won, making it an undefeated season. What a guy. He was so proud of himself and had to call both sets of grandparents to let them know.
