28 August 2016 - It has been a typical week with the exception of some rain. It has kept things a bit cooler which is really nice.
Our garden is doing really well. Last night we had a meal which included potatoes, broccoli and corn from our garden! Yum!!! We are almost finished eating our corn and were able to freeze a little bit. The zucchini seem to be slowing down a little and the tomatoes are just getting ready to pink up. Hopefully we'll have a bunch of them to can when we get back from the gathering.
I attended a 2 day training on medical countermeasure distribution which was very interesting. Basically it is the process of mass prophylaxis and how to get medicine to an entire community in the case of a pandemic or chemical release. The training was in Show Low so I got to come home every night which was very nice.
We are still working on the house. The wires are all run for the basement, the dryer plug is in a new location (on the same wall as the gas and washer drain instead of all the way across the room), and most of the drywall patches have been cut. The laundry room is nearly ready for drywall which should be the start of the big push to get things back together.
Our primary program was today and it was great, as you can imagine. One little girl, on the very front row, knew some of the words and would sing them as loudly as she could. The little sunbeams said their parts perfectly, much to my delight. "Who am I?", "Why am I here?", "Where am I going?"
There was only one small altercation in front of the microphone ("It's MY turn next") and the rest went off without a hitch.
We are getting very excited to see all of you this weekend. We are planning to leave on Friday and get up there as fast as we can. Yay for Family Gatherings!!!
