Holy Moly...

It's been kind of a whirlwind 2 weeks here. Lemme break it down..

1) I have a 10 year old! Lil' Girl had a great birthday! We picked up Uncle from the airport on Saturday, spent the day hanging out and visiting. Sunday we went to church and her primary class sang to her and wished her a happy day. We went out to lunch afterwards with all of us, plus Great Auntie and Uncle. Papa showed up (he was still working Ground Support for the fires that were here) and gave us money to pay for lunch... even though he couldn't stay! Lil' Girl got a REALLY cool book from Great Auntie, we gave her my old IPod, a case and a radio docking station for her room, brother gave her a movie and book. She was thrilled to death!

2) We were all baptized that night! SO many people came and it was awesome! The majority of our friends and family (save one who didn't approve) were there and supportive and everyone had a good time. Lil' Girl was SOOO excited and couldn't sit still. Lil' Boy kept telling everyone that he can't wait until he can be Babitized... lol All in all, a whirlwind evening!

Of course I immediately started my Thank You cards... there were soo many people there that I hardly knew where to start! But of course, there were 3 people who made it all possible... The Ryans and Sarah. I don't know how we can thank them enough. Seriously.

On Monday we took Uncle back to the airport and sent him home... Lil' Girl cried and cried. She misses her Uncle bunches. He is a wild and crazy guy! LOL

The following weekend we were welcomed into the Church and hubby was given the priesthood. That was super awesome! We have been talking a lot lately and really enjoying the community part thus far.

Hubby just signed up to be Cubmaster of Lil' Boy's new Cubscout pack and has been meeting with the rest of that crew recently. So much going on. He also applied for CDF. He plans to apply for Riverside CDF as well.

All in all we have been busy busy. Today is the first day I haven't had a ton of stuff to do.. so what am I doing? Laundry. Organizing kid drawers and closets. Cleaning up trash. etc etc.. figures eh?

Peace!
