November 2011

Felicity - For Young Women in Excellence our theme was Women of Virtue. Felicity dressed as Emma Smith and shared how she exemplified the value Divine Nature. Then I gave a short thought on what women who exemplify that value look like today. Each of the Young Women presented a different value/woman from scriptures or history and their mother talked about the modern application of that value. Felicity participated in the stake youth choir for our Stake Conference this month.

Lauri - I had to get a couple small cavities filled after my regular dentist appointment :( We hosted dinner group at our house and served the Heavenly Chili. Two other couples plus and extra guest were able to come - the Welkers, the Griggs and their friend. The Welkers stayed to play some Wii RockBand with Shawn and I.

The girls - All the girls went in to the dentist on the same day for their regular cleaning and check up and they were all cavity free! Yay!

Family - We all got to go to Boise for Thanksgiving this year. After a year in Iraq, Brent wanted to have everyone together for Thanksgiving, so we were all at Mom and Dad's house. It was fun to have everyone together! We ate good food, raked Grandpa's leaves, played some games, went bowling, watched football, sang songs, and the "kids" all went for a late night Shari's run. The kids table was set up out in Grandpa's shop for Thanksgiving dinner and it was sweet to hear the kids talking about all the things they are thankful for. We also went out to Caldwell to spend some time with Shawn's family and have pie and Shawn went shooting with his family on Saturday morning before we left.
