Well, it's the start of a new week, and all I want is a day to recover from the weekend. I worked hard all week last week, so we decided that the weekend was for playing, especially since Derek was going to be gone. Friday the boys all got to play with friends, and new friends at that, so they were excited. Then after dinner we went to Carl's Jr. and got chocolate chip cookies (.89) and a fry to share. The boys played on the playground and had a lovely time. Next time we'll get two chocolate chip cookies to split and a drink since they were so thirsty.
Saturday we intended to go to the Bean Museum. We drove up to BYU and were stopped by the hordes of people going into the Marriot Center for a basketball game. Apparently during games, they take over all the close parking lots for special clubs and such. The thoughts of parking in the conference center or law parking lot and hauling to the museum was just too much. So we went home and played video games and got the boys haircuts and got ice cream instead. They all look so cute! Especially Ian, who has now grown up at least six months.
Yesterday was my first choir rehearsal for stake conference. I was so pleased with the songs and how willing everybody there (57!) was to figure out the songs, especially the one actually written for SSAA! It is already sounding beautiful, and next week we'll pound some more parts and get some more phrasing in. Even if no one else comes, it will be a beautiful choir.
Today is clean out the toys day. The boys haven't really picked up toys for about three days, and then they got up this morning apparently trying to find something and their room is a complete disaster. It was heading that way anyway, and today it just reached the breaking point. So hopefully I'll get my regular work done quickly and tackle those bedrooms!
Last week was pack night, and Evin got his Bobcat. First award for cub scouts!
