Long Weekend

It's been a fun week for us! Last Friday we got to go to the temple. It was our first temple date since Dustin was born. Logan and Dustin got to have fun with Grandma Linda and Papa Bill. We did sealings and Dave was asked to witness a live sealing afterwords. It was in spanish, so I only caught some of what was being said, but it didn't matter. The spirit was so strong and I was glad we got to help out.

Saturday we did some work around the house. I cleaned and prepped the house for Sunday while Dave petered around in the basement. He removed the basement bathroom's shower doors. He said it was easier than he thought it would be, and after installing a new curtain rod, he called it a day.

Sunday night we had a family from the ward over for dinner. They moved in a street down from us, and have a son Dustin's age. It was fun to get to know them better and was nice to have an excuse to make a fancy dinner. I love to cook, but with the two boys haven't had a lot of time for extensive cooking. We spend more of our time playing and making a mess of the house.

Monday Dave had off of work so we got to spend more time together. I woke up early to get our Walmart shopping done before the boys woke up. When I got back we enjoyed breakfast together and some play time. That night we made some orange chicken and broccoli over rice noodles for dinner. Logan has been far more brave about trying new foods lately, so he ate this with us! Well, not the noodles, but the chicken and broccoli. It was tasty and I look forward to the leftovers tonight.

We ventured out to Barnes and Noble for FHE. Logan loves to go to "the train store" and play with the Thomas trains while Dave and I take turns browsing the books. We had tons of fun and I have a list of books I now want to read.
