Reno, Scouts, and goals:)

Nathan went to Reno, on the first day he hung out and possibly went to Circus Circus or hung out he can't remember, but Circus Circus was fun. While there they played games and won tickets, getting stuffed starfish and a dog (No he didn't' ask if he could have another dog). Went to dinner the next day at the Peppermill and someone thought that Liz was his wife and Wajay and Curtis were there children..lol. Following day he was off to Lake Tahoe and rode the godala, which was way cool and then dinner at Azteca (yummy Mexican) followed by Cold Stone for ice cream

Christian had his board of review for his 1at class Scout and got it YES, other than that I haven't heard how the rest of his week was as he was with his Mom this weekend, I am sure he will have a lot to say next week.

Zach worked some more on his Bear, and made somethings in cubs, as he always had a great week I'm sure he will also have a lot to say.

I talked with Liz this week, she said she dropped her AP Biology class and replaced it with a per tutor class. She is in AP Spanish and is playing tennis. She sounds quiet busy making it to seminary before school and practice after. Liz would also like for every one to know that she rode a camel while Down Under.

Alice reported that school is easy which makes homework easy, tonight she is working on a paper for her chemistry lab. doing drivers ed, and that she takes care of her little brothers a lot. I am sure all of her help is greatly welcomed, and that knowing Alice she is looking at the boys and doing a lot with her friends. but I could be wrong.

I ended up going to the dentist this week, and it made me think of Liz, when she got her wisdom teeth out, she came home, took some pain pills and watched the food net work. I found myself doing the same thing, thanks for introducing me to Ace of Cakes Liz. Justin finds it interesting that we both watch food TV when we can't eat because of having dental work.

I did okay on my exercise program, I got 4 days in this week I was hoping for at least 5. I will do better this week, I also need to work on my diet more. I will get on the scales in the morning and see if I lost any thing.

We got a lot done in Primary Pres. meeting getting things decided for next year and organized, and making plans for next year, we are going to work on the children learning the 13 Articles of Faith, and helping the children learn that they are part of eternal families.

I didn't get to go to church this week, as I was not feeling well so I read the Friend and New Era for Oct. They were full of great ideas and I am thinking we may need to develop a way to make sure that the boys are learning what is in both, so I am hoping the we can start having more family time where we are discussing church ideals. While helping the boys work on different things they need for scours, and learning that the Lord loves them.

It was great spending time with Justin as always, I was sad that we didn't' get to go to the temple as I was not feeling well, but look forward to going with him in the near future. We are working on our food storage, and getting out of debt I'm so happy to have someone to work on these things with. Other goals that I am working on is writing my Grandma Mecham each week, and starting Christmas things. So far so good, I'll mail the letter in the morning and did some crocheting...can't say what on though...:)
