Life-Changing Events

Two life-changing things happened to me today. First, I stepped on the scales this morning and finally hit 70 lbs down. Most people around me don't seem to notice or they just don’t say anything, but I'm happy. Sorry. No pics here. 

The second thing I did was trade in my 2014 Buick Enclave for a 2012 Lexus. The transmissoon in my car was starting to get a bit dicey and I wanted to trade it while it still had value. Yes, it's just like the white one I wrapped around a tree about 5 years ago. Again, no pics here.

I guess I better take a couple of pics tomorrow. Then you can celebrate with me.🎉🎉

So proud of Burrito! He had his Eagle Board of Review tonight and he passed with flying colors.

Coppelia

On Saturday afternoon, three of my best friends and I drove up to Draper to see South Pointe Ballet's production of Coppelia.

All of the girls knew someone in the cast, but mostly it was just a chance to spend some time together. The show was good and the company better.


Since I wrote the grant, the tickets were free. It doesn't get better than that.

Then on Saturday evening I went with three of my other favorites to do baptisms in the Jordan River temple.


Another great day. Now if I could just get them to wear their coats...

Logistics With the Girl Scouts

Yesterday was our first scout meeting of the new year. We were helping try out a new badge about logistics.


Their favorite activity by far was packing a raw egg and tossing it from my balcony to the concrete below.


Of the four eggs we tossed, three survived!


Great job, Girl Scouts!
