FAST FEBRUARY

Primary had a Valentines activity. As kids arrived they teamed up to play a get to know you game.  Then we split off into groups for rotations.    #1 cookie decorating, #2 do you love your neighbor game, #3 Card for someone special.  Then we watched part of a friend2friend and played a string game that to shows we were all tied together in love and unity.   The elders quorum had a Valentines social.  It was a very small gathering but quite enjoyable.  The boys had a bird house activity to show love for Gods creations. They have awesome leaders.  Katana made a video about magic quick changes.  Her brothers let her dress them up and take pictures.  That is true love now. 

I was able to join Katana on her first temple trip. That was super special for me.  She is enjoying Clarinet lessons and has really improved.  We do every other Thursday to coincide with boys activity days. I love the 30 min. we spend together waiting for the boys to finish.  Axel's narrative writing paper got sent up to the middle school as an example of good writing. He's Improving. Mace let me shape his long hair.  Improvement. I reworked our budget and learned a few new tricks like a drop down menu and auto categorical add ups.  Improvement.  Preston redid the floor in the laundry room, put new to us carpet in the hallway so its all one color. He got a little breathing nose thing to IMPROVE his snoring. Zara needs no improvement she's perfect. Just ask her.  ;) wink
