Monday, November 5 - After bowling this morning, mom and I went to Ikea for lunch and to look at their cube storage systems. Mom has been asking me to help her organize her scrapbook room/office and I think Ikea can help. We didn't purchase anything but just looked at the options of what we could maybe do.
Tuesday, November 6 - Mom's friend and vinyl lady, Dawni, has an amazing craft room so when I was over helping mom in her office again, she called Dawni and asked if I could come see it. It ended up being way successful because at Presidency Meeting on Sunday, our girls decided to do the theme "Wizard of Oz" for New Beginnings in February. Jackpot, Dawni has everything we could ever need to pull it off! Bonus, she said I can borrow all of her stuff to do it! I couldn't wait to get home and tell Tammy everything I had discovered over there!
Wednesday, November 7 - We chose a 70's theme for our Young Women in Excellence night. The theme for the year was "Peace in Christ" so they took the "peace" part of that and ran with it! This may have been one of our most successful nights so far! We started out playing Book of Mormon Pictionary, watched a video of the girls (they each submitted a 20-30 minute video of themselves and Tammy compiled it all into one), handed out Personal Progress awards, then Bishop gave a short message. After the program, Andrea and I were in charge of salt and cinnamon/sugar pretzels and it all went very well! I love my calling!!!
Thursday, November 8 - Mom texted me this picture and said that our little Kam Kam broke his leg yesterday! He and Katie were going down a slide together and his leg got caught underneath her and broke his leg. :( The worst part is that they have to keep it immobilized, meaning he can't walk on it at all until they get the cast on Monday. Poor little guy!
Friday, November 9 - This was not Zack's best day ever. :( He had to get a lower tooth pulled to allow space for his permanent teeth to come in. He has never been numbed before so he was super unhappy when the numbness began to wear off. He handled it all like a champ though and once the numbness was gone, he was his normal happy self!
Saturday, November 10 - Happy birthday Dave! It's becoming an annual tradition that on Dave's birthday, we all go out to dinner. I'm lame and only got pictures of sticking cute Finn and Ruby but you can see Dave's shoulder in Rube's picture. :)
Sunday, November 11 - We are having such a hard time picking colors for the basement! We did finally agree on the darker floor but now, we're in debate on the hearth color. I like the dark, he likes the light. White on white on white is super popular right now, for some reason, so I guess we decided on the white. However, I think the charcoal would have made it feel more warm and cozy down by the fireplace. I hope this all turns out well. It is scary when you're picking huge amounts of colors based on a teeny tiny little sample!
