All Caught Up

It is October 27th...and I am finally caught up on this blog. Whew......

In-between these things--

Gary is working like crazy on the yard and in the garage as he tried to get things ready for winter and reorganized for the upcoming remodel.  His ability to keep working on these projects day after day is amazing.  I am so grateful for all of it and for all of his runs to the dump and the DI. The shed is on his list for this week.  He also taught Elder Quorum today and gave a talk at Jensen Park Ward last week (his mom and dad's old ward--which meant that he knew more people than he expected. Some of his parents old friends loved having him talk there.  Sweet moments!).

Ben is keeping busy with Journey House where he helps often in the kitchen to prepare meals and bake different types of bread.

Jena is getting back into some activities--Friend to Friend--her theatre group and Institute down in Bountiful.  She also started a dance class.  She is starting attending her YSA Ward again.

Liam is now a bit taller than Jena, although
different pictures show her still a bit taller.

Me:  Busy trying to figure out the whole remodel thing for our main floor.  Still waiting to get our bids and make a decision.  Probably won't start until January.  I am also planning our Family Reunion which will take place a few days before Thanksgiving.  And planning a trip to New Zealand with Gary next March.  That sums up my life---planning for something in the future.  I have also helped with the yard and read books while waiting for Jena at her activities.  In some ways, I feel like I am in a limbo state, but I am sure I will figure out what the next part of my life should involve at some point.  I got to "babysit" Jessica's and Elessia's kids last night and Ezri told Jessica that she wanted me to come back and babysit again so I guess it was a success.  She liked that grandma read her TWO books before bedtime.
