A Cool Start to the Week

Weekly Happenings: This past week was pretty average. I had a doctor’s appointment on Monday, so Paul stayed home for half the day in order to be able to drop Joseph off at school. I’m so grateful his job allows him to do stuff like that on occasion! On Tuesday, our AC guy came and installed the new part into our system. It’s so nice having a fully functioning air conditioner! Wednesday, I was able to go hang out with some of my girlfriends (which is always fun). Yesterday we had a relaxing day at home, watching conference (and we’re planning on doing the same today…in addition toย having some friends over for dinner). It’s kind of nice being an hour ahead of Salt Lake because that means we getย to sleep in before conference starts. ๐Ÿ˜‰

The Weekly Weather: The first part of the week was glorious! It was rainy and cool…really fall-like. It warmed up a little bit after a few days, but it has still been quite pleasant. I’m not holding my breath, though. It’s supposed to be back up in the high 80s this upcoming week. :/

What Paul’s Been Up To: Pretty much just work, school, and Scouts. He also spends quite a bit of his free time playing with Joseph, which Joseph loves.

What Sarah’s Been Up To: Pretty much just being a school-shuttling, baby-cooking, piano-teaching, momma. Life is pretty good right now. ๐Ÿ™‚

What Joseph’s Been Up To: He has been having fun at school. The highlights of this week: getting to go to the book fair with me, getting to go to the computer lab with his class, getting to go to music time with his class (where they got to play with wood blocks and mallets), and getting to choose out of the treasure box for good behavior. He chose a pair of bright green vampire teeth. His latest scheme is to add them to his Halloween costume. He’s going to be Link again this year, so he said that he could wear his vampire teeth and be “dark Link”. ๐Ÿ˜€ He finds a new way to entertain me every day. ๐Ÿ™‚

This Week in Pictures:

A favorite evening activity: watching the latest Peanuts movie while munching on popcorn. This time, he needed all his “buddies” with him. ๐Ÿ˜€

I couldn’t help but turn on the fireplace on Monday, when the weather was all rainy. I was practical and didn’t turn on the heat feature. I love the ambiance it creates, though!

This little boy loves drawing pictures! He was really concentrating on something he was drawing when I snapped this one.

A family picture Joseph drew in school. I love that he now includes Abigail in all the pictures he draws of our family, even though she isn’t officially here yet.

Doughnuts for breakfast on Conference Sunday. I’m totally on board with this new-to-us tradition! Joseph loves to dunk his doughnuts in milk. ๐Ÿ™‚
