So Monday for our F.H.E. activity (Being the huge Tolken fans that we are) we have a yearly tradition of watching "The Lord of the Rings"
We have been watching a little each night this week after everyone gets all of their other stuff done. We are up to the middle of the last movie now and will hopefully finish it for Tomorrows F.H.E. :-)
Amanda is involved in competition soccer and had a game in Roy Wednesday night which happened to also be Mikes Birthday so we celebrated by going out to dinner as a family after the game.
This was a big treat because we have not gone out to dinner as a family for months due to finances and probebly we still can't afford it, but I guess we did not care it was Mikes Birthday so there!
Amanda was selected to be a part of a regional charter school honor band. They had to learn 5 musical pieces in 2 days (Friday and Saturday at Jordon High school)
Then they had their performance Saturday Afternoon. While she was practicing Saturday morning we went over to Ikea and dreamed a little and also purchased some new cups and glasses so that we can get rid of our mis matched cups we have now. After that we went back to watch
Amandas Honor Band performance. (she plays the trumpet by the way). She is the only girl who plays trumpet in her band. She was also the only girl trumpet player in this Honor band and she is proud of that :-) I can't believe how good they sounded for only learning the songs in two days!
After her performance we went over to Wheeler farm and fed ducks and geese and looked at all the farm animals. It was Danielles first time there and she loved it! Especially the ducks :-) So it was a fun filled weekend and now that it is Sunday we are ready for a nice day of rest and spiritual rejuvination!
I am impressed that you remembered to take pictures through all of that! As you might have already figured out, I remember the camera, but forget to use it!
