Wedding In The Dining Room AGAIN!

August 16, 2009

Well, somehow the wedding stuff moved back into the dining room while I wasn't looking....I'm not quite sure how that happened, but there has been an explosion! It is further complicated by Cymbre's sewing mess which now that dance is starting for the year, it looks like I will have to finish....in that case, it can move to the sewing room.

My fingers are finally starting to bend again, but everything is still very painful if there is any pressure involved! Dumb school lockers....Cooper is going to have to help Cymbre with her's this week....I refuse!

Dance starts this week, and Cooper is teaching several nights a week...we told her that her homework is first, and if she is feeling rushed, exhausted, or to stressed the teaching is going to get cut down. We will see how things go.

Seminary starts next week with school, so the girls will be really tired. Everyone say your prayers that Cymbre's knee won't give her fits this year. And keep saying them. Guy is going to take Cooper to seminary, and then go on to work. That means he will be home later. Dinner will probably be in the car for the girls and I, or I will take Cooper and drop her off, home for a very quick dinner, and then take Cymbre back. We'll see, but whatever we do, it's not going to be fast food every night. I may be employing my crock pot more this year...which means I have to get it back from the wedding.

The dresses we bought for costumes this year are fine with Andee....thank goodness. That means that I don't have to start from scratch, and can get most of the costumes done pretty quick once the girls go back to school next week. However, I am going to play Grammie first and make a blessing dress. And another little surprise for our Granddaughter to be.

Shyla: I talked to McCall today...she is so excited for the baby....and so is Ms. Christine, and Jeanene Christensen. You would think they are the grandmas!

Cooper caught Rachel's bouquet at the reception, so today at church everyone was teasing her about when her wedding is. Dad kept telling people we have to marry off her older sister first. Britni: I guess that means you!

Cooper had a great time at the youth dance this weekend. Several older guys asked her to dance, and then when it was swing dance time, Cole Gunderson and her did it again....she said they had some problems because they didn't remember every step, but they had fun anyway. That's the second or third time they do the swing dance competition thing at the dances. Se loves the dances, and seems to not lack for guys asking her to dance....gee, could it be they think she can dance? She makes the tall ones dance on their knees so she can reach them...they seem to cooperate. I think I am glad Sister Weinken is there also. Cooper has a fan club you know...and a major youth following! Kind of a Caleb thing you might say. Only LOTS more kids.

Cymbre is getting excited about going to school to look around this week....I hope she can carry all those heavy textbooks! And I hope she gets a bottom locker, otherwise, I will have to go get them to change it....she can't reach the top ones to open them. I told her she may have to hire some of Cooper's groupies to be her body guards and help her get through the halls! Some of Cooper's pals will still be at the middle school this year.

Guess that's about all the news for tonight....I am sad this is the last week to have the girls home...the days get so long and quite when I am home alone all day....

Have a great week, and call your mom....
