Super Saturday



Aiden and I played a little UNO in the morning as well as Guitar Hero. It is kinda interesting to try to teach an 8 year old how to play Guitar Hero. He did get the hang of it and we eventually rocked Michael Jackson's Beat It!

I then took him to McDonald's for lunch. I had a Shamrock Shake. Not sure if it was worth the 11 Weight Watchers Point Plus Values, but it was okay and needed to be drank. I have to have at least one a day.

Later, I met up with my other Dad, Josh the other brother, and Isaac the brother-in-law at the Mt. Timpanogos Temple and was able to do some baptisms for the dead for some of my deceased ancestors. It really was a spiritual experience and I feel so honored to have done this work. To learn more about baptisms for the dead, click HERE. And another link about temples is HERE!

After being in the temple, we met up with Erin and Anne and had dinner at Su Casa and then ate yogurt at Frogurt. It was fabulous and I have been eating way to much lately.

Fries Friday.


Burger Friday at Red Robin was fabulous. The small fry who stayed at my house was  very entertaining. We watched a movie. Okay, Aiden watched a movie. I fell asleep! It was fun to have him! He loved sleeping in my tent in my front room. Yay for sleepovers!

Thoughtless Thursday


You can just call me Sue, from Glee! Thursday was dress as your future career day as part of our career week at school. I think I look quite professional in my new workout suits!

The other pic has to do with the milk I bought my Leadership class for the Valentines extravaganza. Well, to save it from the faculty room beast, who often eats other people's food, I wrote all over the jug. My favorite bit was "Do not drink, Poison!" Anyway, I declared it not poison this week and a few of my co-workers have been drinking it. My favorite thing is that they kind of have had the competition where one person feels the others need more milk and keep sneaking in refills, even when the person drinking doesn't want anymore. It makes me laugh. Another thing that makes me laugh from the lunchroom is the idea that a co-worker came up with. He thinks that all of our drains should be connected to Africa. That way, when we dispose of food down the drain, we will be helping the world hunger problem. Another co-worker said that they would use their disposal to make baby food for African babies. They make me laugh!

It helps the days go by pleasantly to work with funny people! Love it!!

Want of Words Wednesday.


Great day! Gmail makes me laugh. Silly spam folder! My co-workers never cease to humor me at lunch either! Indian food rocks. I tried a new naan bread and it was life changing. I like weigh in wednesdays! The End!

Temple Tuesday

Have you noticed the clever titles lately? Ok, so maybe they aren't always cleaver because I am usually posting right before I go to sleep and the brain isn't so sharp. Of course, my memory is never the sharpest. I feel like a geriatric sometimes and it makes me feel frustrated sometimes, but in many ways forgetting stuff can be a blessing. Like when I forget the silly things I have said or the stupid things I have done!

My friend, Kerri, and I went to the temple today. The temple is one of my favorite places on the planet. My day felt pretty crappy and dark and those feelings all left and were replaced by peace and calm as soon as I walked into the temple. I am always in awe of the power that surrounds me there.

Great day!
