Saturday

 We saw the North light last night.  The kids and Casey stayed up later than me though.  I went to exercise class this morning and then sewed until everyone got up.  Ruth had her last soccer game so me and her rode our bikes to it.  It was fun.  The boys mowed our and Andy's yard.  We cleaned the house when I got home.  Then we needed a new sprinkler head in the front yard for the dry corner so we dug a trench and put on in.  It is really nice.  We also got a new bush for the front yard for mother's day.  We were going to stain the deck but it got too late.  We are headed out to see the northern lights again.

 We had a nice day. We did get up and take my shredding. There was a lot of cars but felt so nice to have that done. We just took it easy the rest of the day. Love mom

Friday

 Robin that makes me sad. I am glad you still have a job. There goes your promotion. Sad. We went up to Logan and did Oliver's party. I dropped a gallon of punch in the hallway and it exploded. What a mess. We got clothes for pictures and then went to dinner. We had a fun time. I was telling Karen about the northern lights so we decided to drive to Kamas to see if we could see them. It was was to cloudy but a fun adventure. No lights. Have a nice saturday. Love mom

Friday

 Robin, that is awful and what a horrible way to handle things.  I would rather they just told me.  I am glad you still have a job.  That sounds so stressful.  Thanks for helping us with outfits for the photographs.  I think they all will look nice.  We had a good day with Mom and Dad.  Thank you so much for coming up, I really appreciate it.  We went to a Star wars party after dinner.  Isaac volunteered and he did a good job.  It was a really fun event and we stayed the whole time.  They had telescopes set up in the back and we looked at the moon mostly.  We are staying up to watch the Aurora borealis.  The kids are super excited.

Friday

Today was stressful. At 11:30 our managers brought us in a meeting and said go to lunch and don't come back for the rest of the day. They were doing a company wide layoff and didn't want it to be awkward for people that were leaving. I picked up Luna and went home. So they sent an email at 12 saying the layoffs we coming with in the hour and to wait for the emails. So for an hour I constantly refreshed my email. I luckily am not laid off and still have a job. I looked it up in the news they laid off 7 percent of the people around 200+. So I was lucky. It made for a stressful day though and I feel bad for everyone that now does not have a job. The Grovers oldest daughter Abby was the lead in a play so we went and saw her. Luna did terrible so I ran outside with her in the hallway for most of it..

Thursday

 I am sorry Luna was sick. Hopefully it is just a 24 hour bug. My day was good. We had a potluck at lunch and people liked the Mac and cheese I made. After work the bishop came over and visited. Then me and mom went to the store. We came home and made jerk chicken. I made it for work one time and it was good so I thought I should make it again. I took tomorrow off because I have a doctor's appointment. At least I get to sleep in. I hope everyone has a great Friday tomorrow. Bye 

Thursday

 Sorry it is late, I had book group tonight.  We read Take what you can carry.  We all really liked the story.  The writing could have been better but I enjoyed reading it.  Today was good.  We did makeup testing for most of the day.  Today was the last day for after school for Oliver.  We got a new toy for the cat and he likes that.  Love you guys
