Last weekend Scott and Noah went to Idaho together. It was (I think) the first time they'd taken a trip, just the two of them. Noah was so excited! Scott had a water board meeting in Albion (we own a little bit of farmland there) and so this was a good excuse to go. They flew into Boise and visited Jeff and Marla, then spent time in Pocatello with Scott's sister Cindy and her family (including granddaughter Abby - - she's 3). Scott's parents were there as well and they went to church there. Scott's parents have been working in the Twin Falls temple since it opened, and Scott's dad is now a sealer. They keep very busy! Noah had a very fun time playing with Abby and took about a thousand pictures (Scott weeded through them and picked a few good ones, see www.gallery.mac.com/scottegarner) They finally got back Tuesday afternoon. Noah was so excited to be home and to see Ethan and me. We really missed him and Scott. Ethan and I just had a quiet weekend at home, doing some furniture rearranging and hanging out with friends.
Tuesday night I was in charge of homemade face masks for YW beauty night. We used up some of my food storage oatmeal. Recipe: 1/4 cup oatmeal, 2 tbsp egg white, 1 tbsp orange juice. The girls were so fun, we took fun of their leprous looking faces and had a great time. The scouts did a huge food drive for the pantry here in Crystal Lake. And Noah had a good time with the cubs, getting ready for this weekend's Blue & Gold Banquet.
Today Ethan and Noah had dental appointments. Arby's was the bribe, and it worked. Ethan went first and was a great example, and Noah followed and was wonderful. Whew! I was a real cheerleader through the whole process, glad that's over with for 6 months. Now I just have to keep up the nagging to brush and floss . . .
