A Great Day

Yesterday was a really great day! We had to jump a few hurdles in the take-off, but once we cleared them...smooth sailing! The girls had a Primary Activity Day yesterday morning. They went on missions! Jade went to Mexico and Amber went to Japan. They both learned how to sew buttons onto a piece of cloth and all about what missionaries do all day. Jade learned how to say "Buenos Diaz!" and Amber practiced using chopsticks. She said there was sushi, but she told the teacher she doesn't eat that. What a wimp! They even got hot dogs, chips, and brownies for lunch! While they were there, I ran my normal errands. We had to rush a rescue David right after the activity because his Harley ran out of gas and he was stranded on the freeway. That was a pain! Almost started WW3! Hahahaha! When we all got home, David and I hadn't eaten yet, so we decided to take the girls to Chuck-E-Cheese's! The girls had a lot of fun and Jade won a ton of tickets from the lottery thingy. She pushed the button at just exactly the right time! Wow! I was impressed!

We also had the opportunity to watch an advanced screening of "Get Smart" for free! It was showing at the Pearl Harbor theater to the first 450 people there. We waited from just after 3 until 5 when they started issuing tickets. We ended up being 3rd in line and got great seats! There's a grassy field in front of the theater that was very pleasant to wait in. The girls had fun trying to fly their gliders they got at Chuck-E's, David had fun watching a movie on his laptop, and I just relaxed on the grass. The movie was totally worth the wait! It was sooo funny! I highly recomend watching it when it comes out. The girls, of course, fell asleep midway through it. I don't really blame them, they had way too much fun for a day without naps!

Today is Father's Day and Amber and David are still sleeping (it's 8:30am!). We are cleaning out the backyard today. Gotta pull up the posts from Milo's yard, scrub the walls and get as many muddy pawprints off as we can, mow the grass, scoop the poop, and set out the sprinkler. Then I have to clean out the playroom so I can have two jobs done and out of the way to move out. And the missionaries are eating with us again. Cinnamon Rolls!!! Yea! Happy Father's Day! =)
