Shopping Day

Finally!! It’s the last day of school tomorrow! I still have to work Tuesday and Wednesday but I will finally get a small break. We have still been busy and we look forward to the break. This week in a nutshell…

~Marisa earned the “Stake Presidents Award” in seminary by memorizing the scripture mastery, reading the New Testament, learning the apostles, etc. She is the only one in her seminary that received it.

~I took Marisa, Kayla, and their friends shopping last Saturday. They all got some adorable clothes. (I have decided that the mirrors in the dressing rooms add 40 pounds). They all had fun and took lots of pictures for Marisa’s modesty collage she is doing for personal progress.

~Yesterday, I dropped Marisa and several friends off at the mall to do more “shopping”. They were there for 5 hours.

~Yesterday Kayla attended a pageant her friend was in. Her friend ended up being runner up for the Miss Iowa Pre-teen Pageant.

~Both Kayla and Tyler had sleepovers at their friends houses this weekend.

~Marisa and Kayla helped run the Daddy-daughter dance for Activity Days at church. They helped girls with crafts and helped with refreshments.

~Tyler had a “Survivor Day” at school this week. Hopefully he can tell you all about it in his blog.

~Marisa is done with school and is now officially a sophomore.

~Marisa and I helped walk all the 1st graders down to Dairy Queen to buy ice cream. Sheesh! It was quite a hike and a bird pooped on Alaynas head while we were walking.

~At my school, I helped run “Latin America Culture Day”. Then I had a slight emergency on Friday when I promised my students a pizza party for staying off the homework lunch list all year, but the pizza place didn’t open by the time the party started. Long story short it became a walking taco day.

Happy 15th birthday Marisa!!!!

Even though we didnt have an official party, we still had her special bday dinner and then she requested peanut butter rice krispie treats for dessert! Then we watched the premiere of So You Think You Can Dance! Hopefully it was a perfect birthday!!

It's FINALLY summer!!!!!
