Rain, Rain Go Away

Well, it seemed like it rained constantly this week and I was going stir crazy by the end of it. However, when I look back, we did some fun things. On Tuesday night, we tried to go to a Chukar's game, but got rained out on the second inning. I also took the kids to get school supplies that day and laughed when Chloe arranged her items on the conveyor belt very precisely....just like her dad with groceries. I laughed and took a picture to text to him.




 On Wednesday we packed up and went to Rigby Lake and played for three or four hours. It was actually a great day. A little cooler than usual, but still comfortable. Kristi brought her kids and we chatted while the kids played.














On Thursday and Friday I tried to take the kids to the park to break them away from video games and TV. When there was a break in the rain we'd head to the park.

Saturday we went skating at Starlite skating, ate lunch at Scotty's drive-in, and then went to the movies. We couldn't all agree on movies, so Isaac and Phoebe went to The Giver, Kory and Caleb went to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Chloe and I went to Maleficent.

So, it was a pretty good week, in spite of the weather.

    That teenage mutant ninja turtles sounds painful! Now I am convinced that Kory truly is amazing!!

Chloe had her tenth birthday and she asked for the game Pie Face. Yep, you've seen it. The one where everyone takes turns getting whipped cream in the face. Here are some precious moments. Chloe also got a little fort-making kit for her birthday, so we've had these structures in the family room for a few weeks now.

Kory's Story

I just wanted to record this for our family history. When Kory and I were engaged, we went to Salt Lake to talk with someone at CES to see about re-applying to teach seminary. At the time, they indicated that he could re-apply, but they didn't seem positive about the likelihood of him getting re-hired. At that time, we decided not to pursue teaching again. Later that year, CES announced that there was no longer any block on people who had been divorced teaching seminary. Again, we talked with some people, but still felt that the chances of him getting hired were not good, because he would not be able to move if necessary, which is usually the case with new hires.  In Fall of 2015, Kory had a strong impression to check with the pre-service director and see what he would need to do to try teaching again. We still knew that the chances were not great, but he felt that he should pursue it. He began attending the class for pre-service seminary teachers, and was assigned to student te...

April 2023

  April 2023 On April 1 and 2 we chilled and watched General Conference. On the first, we got a new cat to replace Todd. This cat’s name is Taco, she is a girl, and she’s a tortoiseshell calico. She and Binx have taken quite a while to warm up to each other, but I think we’ll get there. She is cuddly like Todd, so we all like that.  On April 4 I watched Season 3 of The Mandalorian with my dad. On the 5 th , Kory and I took Austin and Leah to the Bee’s Knees for a birthday dinner. They have really great food there and it was fun to visit.  On April 6, we had BYUI Graduation. It was fun to be there, since I’ve missed the past year due to my cancer. On the 7 th , Kory, me, and Caleb babysat for Austin and Leah. It was fun putting the kids to bed and singing with them. Stevie loves the song “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,” so we sang that a bunch. On April 8, Kory and I went on a little date. We drove up to Driggs and had dinner at O’ Rourkes and then stopped and visited with m...
