my sympathies dave

I can sympathize about Brielle. Katie stated she was going to have sex on the way to her first day at preschool. of course, she meant to say snacks, but regardless, we have video to prove it.
Katie also had her first primary program today, and she went up despite crying for mommy when she had to go sit with her class. She did really well.
we taught our first Sunday school lesson as ward missionaries and it went really well. We had an investigator that has committed to baptism there and another new memeber that has only been to church a couple of times in the year that she has been a member. it went really well.

Just a note

Just a note on our way through St. George to let you know I am reading and will make a new post when we get home and I have a minute. I will have a minute even if I have to make one up! Love you all. I can't believe how fast all the kids are growing up! I am not sure I like it at all!!!
Happy Birthday to the twins. Kylee and Caleb, we love you! Sorry we didn't get you called today. Were away, then Jan & fam got back and we missed our chance. Will try to call tomorrow. I start my training for Reiki tomorrow. That should be interesting! We love you all so much. Mom & Dad
Well, today is a double birthday. Kylee and Caleb are three today. Next year they will officially join the ranks of the primary, part of a group of about 20 new sunbeams. I guess our primary of 120 isn't big enough and they need more kids. Heaven bless the Sunbeam teacher(s). Speaking of primary, we had a primary program today. Jesse, Brielle, and Paige all did very well with their parts.

Yesterday was the last day of fall sports for Jesse and Brielle. Paige finished soccer last Saturday. Jesse played quarterback for his flag football team a little bit yesterday. His first pass was a touchdown pass. Way to go Jesse. Brielle hustled and played really hard. She's really fun to watch because she just doesn't stop. She seems to flow to the ball naturally and she nearly scored yesterday.

Paige had fun and really developed during her soccer season. She went from distracted player doing somersaults while the game happened on other end of the field, to being right in the middle of the mix and even scoring a goal.

We got our first snow of the season today. BOO! I'm not ready to surrender to winter yet. Fortunately, I don't think I have to. Its supposed to warm back up this week, into the 60s anyway. The kids all broke out the winter gear, snow pants, boots, etc. and headed outside. They made snow angels and snowmen. Brielle is all about the details. As I was taking a picture of her snowman, she freely pointed out the details on her snowman. "Those are the breasts," she proudly pointed to the remnants of a carrot broken in two pieces and placed in the figure to represent breasts. Can someone please tell me what I'm going to do with this girl as she gets older.? Just kidding.

Anyway, on the anatomy note, we'll sign off. Love you all and we'll talk to you later.

Dave

Ryan's first tooth

Ryan kept us up all night, the night before last, and today Jenn felt why. Ryan's first tooth is coming in. one of the lower incisors.
