Biology, berries and babies

I subbed 9th grade biology today. High School is super easy. You bring a book and keep an eye on things while the kids work independently. Teachers don’t trust subs to teach anything at that level.  

When I came home I made a berry fruit pizza. It’s Ethan’s favorite and he requested it after we made two yesterday and he didn’t get any.

These two babies looked so cute in their all black work uniforms. They both had good days and were lively and silly tonight. 

YWIE

Tonight was Young Women in Excellence. It was super nice. The girls planned it and each shared something they had been working on. 

Grace and Sage sang a really pretty duet. I’m very excited to start working with them!


Other than that I took Luka to the vet for some shots and went and bought a chainsaw for Rob to take with him to hurricane clean up this weekend. 

Hannah and Bub and I went for sushi after school. Those two were cracking me up. We had a very laughter filled lunch!

Oh and Grace and I took dinner to the Clark’s. 

So it was a good day!

You know you live in Florida when...

Today I subbed a 3rd grade class. They were designated “gifted” and it was a delightful day. They were quiet and interactive and attentive. 

One assignment they had was to read an article about autumn and then to write a paragraph about it. We brainstormed first so I asked them what they liked to do in autumn. 

The first kid raised her hand and said “fall is nice because you can take a walk at night and it’s not too hot”.

The next child raised his hand and said “fall is the best time to go to Animal Kingdom because it’s not too hot for the animals”.

I laughed. Only in Orlando!

Tonight Rob and I went to the temple and chipotle with our friends Jon and Jennifer. 

And in the end

Lol! In the end it all went fine. Prep day was icky. The actual procedure went smoothly. Hannah drove me there and back. I woke up easily. We stopped at the Waffle House on the way home and then I napped. 

I felt kind of meh all day but  was able to rest and that was that.
Hopefully a non-event.

Prep day stinks

Update: this stinks. 

I texted the girls and told them to send me cheer me up photos. This is what I got:





















It’s almost worth it for those cute faces smiling at me!


Every time I leave the bathroom these two are waiting.

Sabbath

Ziva and I saw some friends on our walk this morning. She is not very observant and will walk by snakes, alligators and giant birds without seeming to see them. 

She would never survive in the wild!

Church was very nice. The talks were good and my presidency and I were called and set apart. I am looking forward to getting to know them and the girls! I don’t know how glad Grace is to have me back in YW though.


Tomorrow is my colonoscopy so today is prep day. Yuck!

Rob had a veil assignement all day today.

Hannah worked.

Grace and I went to the store.

Tonight Tom and Diana, Isaiah and Jess and Mac came over. Makayla had her first swim and looked so cute in her little swimsuit. We had dinner, the men watched football and the women sat around the table and chatted. It’s fun living near family.
