Super Saturday

Greetings! It is Saturday. We got to go out on a date last night. We went out with Tammy and Troy. We went to Texas Rhodehouse (yum) and then we went to "Baby Mama". It was interesting. It was really funny, but I wouldn't recommend it to my bishop if you know what I mean. It was so fun going on a double date. It keeps the conversation off of bills and kids, and lets you be yourself and enjoy your husband.

Today we went back to the Central Stake center for a babtism. Taylor Beerey was babtized by her dad Wade. We knew then from our last ward. Her mom (Audrey) was my scout den leader partner. They have had a lot of various struggles in their lives, so it is so thrilling to see the change. I think that sometimes the biggest struggles make for the sweetest successes. Cami-sorry to miss Kymballs babtism. I did try to stop by the church on the way home, but it was over. Anne- Becca said we need to come back to enrichment to visit sometime.

Today is also Jarons last soccer game. It is so windy, so I politely volunteered to stay home with Nate (he has a headache and still needs to do his chores), and there is no need for Emily to be out in the cold.

Yesterday my neighbor gave me a few more flower starts. It was windy and rainy yesterday, so I better get out and get them planted before the roots dry out. I do have leaves on three of my raspeberries (out of 10). I guess these aren't the best odds, however I am thrilled. I was talking to my cousin Jen last night, and I was bragging to her about my berries, when she informed me that they draw BEES! AAAAAUGH! I told her that I planted most of them around my DECK! We had a good laugh about that. (Of course I didn't tell her that my 3 living plants are ALL around the deck.) That still makes me chuckle.

Our house is running a lot smoother. I have worked up a daily chore chart, so while not all chores are done daily, most are, and all are done weekly. Plus if there is fighting I always have jobs lined out for them. Plus there are always opportunities for them to earn priveledges. All is well at the Gordon's house. We would love to have people over for dessert tomorrow early evening. Any takers?
