One of my good friends that I play volleyball with moved to Florida. We had a going away party for her. I miss seeing her at volleyball, but she looks like she is really enjoying their new home.
Alyssa went through all of her school notebooks and threw away a bunch of stuff. She was happy to get rid of all of that.
Ashley went to FSY at BYU with a girl that used to be in our ward. They have kept in contact since she moved and decided to go to FSY together. Ashley regretted this decision as FSY drew closer. They haven't been as close lately and Ashley dreads hanging out with her because she is a bit pushy about making Ashley do things that she doesn't want to do. And the girl won't take no for an answer. So Ashley finds it is easier to just ignore her texts and keep her distance. But she could not do that at FSY. It was a pretty miserable week for her and We thought we would have to pick her up early many times, but she was able to stick it out the whole week. She said her company was not that close and she didn't really make any friends. She said it was that way last time she went to BYU/, too. Next year we will send her somewhere different.
The Knudsen's came into town to drop Connor off at the MTC. It was fun to see them and give Alyssa and Connor a chance to hang out a little bit before not seeing each other for the next 2 years. It was kind of sad to see her say goodbye. He is going to be a great missionary.
We got to have Claire for a day while Becky and Jake went to a work retreat. We took her to Labyrinth and we all had fun trying to find our way through the rooms. I think we only actually got to the end of 3 of the rooms, but we still had fun.
Alyssa helped me organize our pantry. This is the before picture. There was a lot of expired food and it was hard to find things in the chaos. It is nice to have it organized and clean now.
I took the boys to the curiosity museum at thanksgiving point. They have a new room that teaches all about Argentina. It was fun to visit the library, school, grocery store, etc and find out what life is like in Argentina.
The kids have all enjoyed being on summer break. We have also spent a lot of time at the pool and they have played with friends a lot, too.
