It is a super time to be alive. Tonight the family and
part of the Stubbs get to be in a parade. We will throw candy to all the
people. I made 6 costumes that resemble people from the scriptures.
I am very excited. I love parades and being with my kiddos. It is
such a bonus that the cousins are with us. I love having Amy and Ethan
visit. We make lots of yummy dishes. Last night, Amy made an Oreo
ice cream pie and the night before, I made mint brownies. I think tonight
I will make peanut butter chip cookies. Last night I made some sweet and
sour chicken for Soli because it is her favorite food. Silly me forgot to
turn off the oven and overcooked it by an hour. Yes the chicken and egg
rolls were very crispy.
I have been working for a month now and really enjoy
it. I like all the new things I am learning. I also like my small
office and the people who work with me. I noticed that all the
conversations with Tim regarding Excel and managing fiber operations has paid
off. I have taken that info to help me. Yesterday my boss and I
talked about RFPs. He was about to explain them when I beat him to the
punch because Tim already taught me about them.
Summer is half over. I am trying to get the kids
excited about school but they really like playing their night games and staying
up until 10 pm. I know they will miss that. I am going to have to
make a conscious effort to get them in a routine a week before school starts.
Yesterday, Jacinda, Lance, Soli, Ethan, and Tim went to the
SLC temple and did baptisms for the dead. I am so grateful Tim takes
Jacinda each week to the temple and the cousins got to go with them. I
feel very blessed to live where I do and with such good people.
