Scott went to Washington

Scott went to Washington this past week. I am sure he had a great time but I have not heard much yet. I know that there are a lot of pictures to share of the beautiful place he was at. I was really nervous as to how things would go at home. It has been a while since Scott has been away for such a long time. KC generally gets really sick(not sleeping and throwing up the whole time. Its just nerves). He did really well this time. We all did. I was a grump towards the end of the day but that is normal. I do not enjoy bedtime.

We had many things to do to keep us busy. We also have had Grandpa Knight here. The kids love that. However he is sick with a cold or flu and I have tried to keep him in one room(everyone knows how I am with sharing sick germs) so the kids have not had their normal visit with him.

Wednesday night we had Pack Meeting.

Thursday Zoe, Sam and I helped at the school and Thursday night is our long night filled with homework and studying before Friday tests.

Friday Zoe and I helped at the school we took over lunch and recess for third grade. We spent the night Christmas shopping and Eating dinner in the mall food court.

Saturday was filled with Birthday Parties, Cub Scout outings, Stake Christmas Concerts, friends and family and fun. We also shopped for a Christmas tree to put in the playroom/Grandpas room. We have yet to decorate due to Grandpa being sick.

Sunday was fun. KC learned how to text and spent some time talking with Scott it made the morning fun and pleasant. I have also been very hard on the kids about their Sunday activities and today they thought they were doing great. I always play BYU instrumental Radio on Sunday and the kids tried to exercise and do gymnastics to it. It was quite funny as they tried to move to the very slow and relaxing beat. I watched from the kitchen and prepared dinner and laughed the whole time. KC also learned how to braid hair and is anxious to do Samanthas hair for school tomorrow(I am sure everyone at this point is thinking that I do not do boy stuff with KC but that is soooooo not true). We went to church and we finsished this evening with the wonderful Christmas devotional given to us from Our loving Prophet and his counselors. I loved their messages and the songs that were song. I am so excited to celebrate this season.

I am so happy that Scott is returning home shortly and am so gald that he had the opportunity to go. I am grateful for my kids to have been well behaved while he was gone. I owe them big time this week.

Sounds like you have been working overtime, thank goodness your kids are a little older and can help a little. What was Scott doing in Wash? I am going to guess something with his Mom or you guys are making plans to move? I say you get the next vacation to come and see us and have a sister weekend getaway. Anyways, loved browsing on your blog had some time tonight Brandon and I too watched the Devotional tonight the littles were in bed by the time it came on but Loved every minute of it. Super inspirational for me and my plans for this Holiday season, by the way I did not send the email to you but I am doing Christmas cards for Family and close friends as a gift this season so if you are interested send some pics my way and I will design you something. Let me know. Love you
