Hailey and Paisley rode the bus home with Annie today.  They had lunch, played and then I took them all to dance.

Kris and Spencer were moving into their brand new house today.  I felt like Josh and I needed to go help.  So I met Josh there on his way home from work.  Thank goodness we did.  It was just Kris and Spencer, his sister and two nieces doing everything!!!  Josh came to the rescue and worked way harder than his body should have.  Eddie came later, also thank goodness!

Scriptures in the morning……

After Annie got home from school, we made banana bread.  One of her favorite things to do is make banana bread.  

Ashton and Emmy had yearly check-ups today (first time in about 5 years/7 years).  They seem to be perfectly healthy.  I really have been so blessed with such healthy babies.  

For Mia Maids tonight, we tied blankets together to donate to Primary Children’s Hospital.  It was a fun night.  

FIRST DAY OF KINDERGARTEN!!!! 

This little Annie was so crazy excited!!!  She got right up, dressed, we did her hair and she went running to the bus stop, barely giving me a tiny hug.

I, of course, jumped in the car and video’d her getting off the bus and walking to class.  She was little miss popular and she LOVED every minute of being such a big girl!  Mrs Olsen is THE BEST!  She is in the same class as Paisley, Hailey, Lexie, McKinley and many other friends.  She is going to have a blast!

We babysat McKinley Beck after school so we brought her with us to McDonald’s where they told me how awesome their day was.

Ashton babysat tonight while Josh and I went to Tiffany Ingo’s wedding reception.  We got to see so many Somerset friends and it was sooooo fabulous.  

Today was my last day home with Annie.  I am super excited for her to go to Kindergarten but I will miss my buddy!  We got to have the tandem bike until 5 PM today.  So when Emmy got home from school, she and I went on one last ride.

Melissa was having a rough day so we fed Duke and Nick dinner.  Later, Avery came over and ate with Emmy while Melissa and I talked for a while.  I love her!  I wish we weren’t both so busy so we could actually hang out.

Josh figured out the perfect birthday present for Ash.  His own 22.  Ashton is super stoked!  Josh took the boys shooting with Jesse and his little guys.

Shelly had to go back home this morning.  Josh made pancakes for everyone.  Despite all my calm, fun posts this weekend, I was STRESSING OUT!!!  Josh, Ashton and I had to give talks in Sacrament Meeting this afternoon.  So Ashton and Josh went to the Abbington Care Center to give short versions of their talks to the seniors.  I had a Mia Maid Presidency Meeting, then we had to go to church!  

We were asked to speak on Service, specifically Temple Service and Family History.  I am pretty much the worst at that so when the bishop said the topic, I was not excited.  With Josh’s help, I finally focused on keeping journals and family histories, keeping those who have passed on close.  I started by telling about Grandma Harris.  It was super difficult and I cried a lot and didn’t say all the things I wanted to say, nor the way I wanted to say things, but it was okay.  Ashton and Josh gave INCREDIBLE talks.  After Sacrament Meeting, the bishop came and shook our hands and he was full on crying!  She just kept saying he missed his grandparents.  It was pretty touching.  Then Josh had to teach his class and I taught the Mia Maids.  What a Sunday!!!  We were able to relax at Carr dinner.  We brought the tandem bike to share with everyone and they ALL LOVED IT!  What a great night!!!
