Just a note

It has been another busy week and Sunday. The weather has warmed up this week and we enjoyed going to a couple of parks on Saturday to play - without jackets even. Shawn and I got the girls a Little Caesar's pizza for dinner Saturday and then I took him out to dinner to celebrate his new position at work - he was elected and voted in as President of the Board of Directors of their company. He was also asked awhile ago to be a board member of the Idaho Association of Marriage and Family Therapists. I am so proud of him! He is a great worker and really does well when there is a problem that needs to be solved.

Today our choir sang (Peace Like a River) and Shawn had to give a talk in sacrament meeting on abuse. We also had our "fifth Sunday" combined meeting which also covered abuse. He did a great job on his talk and the choir number and the other speaker complemented the theme also. Our family and another family were asked to sing one of the songs for the Primary program, so we also went into primary to practice that.

After church Shawn and I played games while the girls had some quiet time and then our new home teacher came with his wife. Then we had our family home evening and Felicity prepared the lesson on Queen Esther all by herself. She did a great job researching her story in the scripture readers, a Bible Q&A coloring book we have and of course the scriptures. She even found a coloring page online for her sisters to color and made a Power Point presentation for us. She is a smart little cookie and loves to put things like this together.

Hope you are all enjoying autumn!
