Things to celebrate

 

This week has been full of things to celebrate.  Sam was called as a counselor in his quorum. Evelyn finished her rehearsals for the "Princess" ballet. It's an adaptation of A Little Princess.  Ada started her first job at the nearby retirement center.  She serves the meals.  I think she's going to have fun.  She works with two of her YW in her class and she came home telling me about some of the fun conversations she's having with the residents.

My parents took Sam and Seth to Bear Lake with them for the weekend and they're having a blast.  I stayed here to get Evelyn to all her required rehearsals and to chaperone them.   

Red Robyn celebration dinner with the girls.

I don't get to do pictures from backstage very often.  Evelyn's the doll straight in the middle of the picture.

This is Evelyn too.  The one in the dark lighting.

Getting Ada ready for her first shift at work.  We were getting our window shield replaced so we went next door for cheese curds and for Ada to change in the bathroom and be dropped off at work.

I only have three cousins my age. Here's me with two of them.  They're such good people and doing good things.  Tiff loves her two boys with a passion and will do anything for them no matter what physical challenges she has.  Jake is a hard worker and takes care of his brood of 8.  He's a good man and has an amazing wife.  My other cousin is on my Wilcox side.  Conrad.  He's smart and amazing.  He's done everything from owning a pool hall, living on a boat, to working on an oil rig.  It's my pleasure to know these people. (We were at Shelby's reception. I love seeing family.)

My friend/co-worker invited us to go play at Hang time with her and her kids.  It was a lot of fun.  I didn't realized how expensive it is though.  The lady at the desk saw me hesitating and offered me a free half hour for each of the kids so I didn't end up paying a fortune.  It was very kind of her.

Sunday night we watched The Amazing Spider Man.  I'd never seen it and neither had the kids. They love the idea of watching all the spiderman movies after watching the last one with all three spidermen in it.
