We finally made it back home at 10am unloaded the King's stuff and we just relaxed for a couple of hours until the next activity for the day. BYUH Grad and 50th birthday party at 1-4pm, Warrior 3 had a Kiddie birthday party to go to... and a 60th birthday party 4-8pm! We ended up not going to the last party... we stayed home and did some chores instead. I also baked a cake for Warrior 1. Priesthood meeting 4-6 pm. Adult Meeting 7-9:15 pm. Warrior 4 was fighting his nap. He was up for 6 hours straight. He and I finally made it to the meeting with the King looking kind of disappointed that we were a little late. We made it in time for the opening song!
The King was not able to attend any of the parties because he was busy setting up the mics, projector and he had to practice the organ. He was playing during the Priesthood meeting.
Anyway.... after the Adult Meeting we were able to sing Happy Birthday to Warrior 1 at 9:30pm ate cake and ice cream. Yum. Warrior 1 got clothes from Gramma and Grampa Goo, he got an assortment of Reese's peanut butter/chocolate. Not too long after that...we went to bed. Or I went to bed because I don't remember anything else after I put Warrior 4 down to sleep. I don't remember being or doing our family prayer.
I was awakened by Warrior 4 this morning at 2 and then took him out in the living room...gave him a bottle and we crashed on the floor. He woke me up again at 6 and at 7 the King is all suited up to go the the conference. Hello! Early! He had to set up ....was in charged of putting the hymns on the BIG screen ..I didn't know that of course until we were singing the hymns and there he was sitting next to me with his iPhone flipping/changing/sliding (whatever you want to call it) the slide for each verse of the songs. Pretty cool for me since I'm not tech savvy like him.
Oh, this was the very first time that we got good seats! We left to go to the CAC at 9:30 am. I guess we kind of surprised the King. He reminded me that conference starts at 10 not 10:05 am. He didn't want a repeat of what happened last night's Adult meeting. he he he. Yes, that is a big moment being half an hour early.
Well, great conference talks. We need to serve, share the gospel, show affection, tell them you love them, be the parent, make the kids earn things, don't just hand it to them (the King says this a lot so when the speaker was sharing this...the King was like "YUP!")
After the conference at 12:30 we finally made it home...the King made lunch using all the leftovers in the fridge. YIppee! It was delish!
After lunch we took our much needed naps. I crashed first, and then the King and Warrior 4 followed. The King put Warrior 4 to sleep. King didn't wake up until almost 8 o'clock. Poor thing..he works so hard and doesn't get much shut eye.
Anyway, I had a lot of help making dinner.. just shoyu chicken and lumpia. While the chicken was cooking Warrior 3 first offered to help in grating the potatoes and carrots, while Warrior 1 chopped the water chestnuts. Warrior 2 and Princess were playing with Warrior 4. Warrior 2 washed the green leaf lettuce to eat with the lumpia. Princess fed Warrior 4 some baby cereal while I rolled the lumpia.
Dishes are done. I am craving for something sweet. Read the BoM. I'm on my 17th day. Reading assignment for today is Mosiah 4- 8.
I should be sleeping because it is now morning. 12:08 am to be exact. I have to post pictures. I know I've rambled on. But just another day with the Gooey Goos. Nothing special or extra ordinary. Just things that we have to do.
