Sunday

It's been a good Sunday being together... We said goodbye to two friends that are going on LDS missions. Jillian Christensen is going to Thailand and Courtney Cosgrove is going to Tuscan AZ. They will be a blessing to those they serve for the next 18 months.

Brittany Lewis and Miranda came over for dinner. We had my sister Becky's recipe of country cube steak & mashed potatoes... no leftovers. Then we headed outside and played four square in the chilly night. We have great hopes that spring is on it's way, but hear a snowstorm is on it's way tomorrow. Conrad had a HUGE tantrum when he had to come inside for dinner. He wants to live outside. After dinner, he played in the sink water and bubbles. He is also waving bye bye, and blowing & giving kisses... you would think he is a puppy as we teach him new tricks. Ransom blind sided Josh into a wrestling match. I kept thinking 'Is this when my sister Becky would throw water on her boys to break them up?' Boys are so different then girls, but I am learning... built up testosterone = male bonding :)

Rummikub

Play Rummikub once and you will see why it's one of the BEST games in the world! I can't play it without thinking of my sister Becky who is queen of the game and finds extreme joy in annihilating anyone that stands in her way... heaven help them! You see, there is a pecking order in Rummikub. I can generally make toast of anyone in my family and then Becky can kick my trash!
