April 3rd through 6th, 2011 - 114 through 117 Days

Ah, Sunday was nice.  I got to sleep in until 8:30, then I woke up, ate some Marshmellow Matties, and watched conference until 12:00.   How does it get much better than that.    I then watched another conference session from 2:00 to 4:00, and the prohet and others talked about marriage, and how we should treat our spouses.  Elder Scott gave a great talk on how much he loved his wife, and how she had died in 2005, and he missed her, but he was glad for all the times they had.  It was really sweet.  After conference, I got to go do a little service for a half hour or so, then, Mike Anderson called and asked if we wanted to come over and have dinner and make cookies. We had already made Chicken noodle soup, and chocolate cookies, so we just took our dinner and cookies, and traveled up to Kelly and Mike's house.   Kelly had made salad, and it was really nice to just sit, relax, and eat.  So, we ate, and talked, and then ate cookies, and then more cookies, etc., until I officially now look exactly like a cookie.  I guess it's true, you are what you eat.   Good thing I wasn't eating pumpkins.

On Monday, we did yard work for Family Home Evening, and the boys were awesome!  They worked like Spartacus (I'm assuming, of course, that Spartacus was a very hard worker).   We then went to In and Out (as you can tell, I like In and Out) and had a double/double!  Woo Hoo!  How's that for fighting the fluff Debbie?.   Speaking of Debbie, she called at about 7:30 and asked the boys if they wanted to earn some money.  Of course, my boys said, "No, we're loaded".   Yeah, right, my boys jumped all over that, and they went and stuffed envelopes for a few hours.  Like most things Kimzey's do, they made it into a competition.  They said they stuffed 600 envelopes in 2 1/2 hours, so I'll have to confirm that with Debbie, that seems like a lot, even for my super boys.  While I was dropping off Hunter at Debbie's she gave me 5 biking jerseys!  I was so excited.  I have such great friends.  I challenge anybody who has ever read this blog to have better friends than I do.   I didn't think so! 

On Tuesday Kerry and I got to ride our bikes to and from work.  It was a beautiful day, and I wanted to ride the entire day, but no such luck.   However, we were looking good in our Orange, Blue, and green jerseys that Debbie gave us!  Life is good, life is very good!  Please, no comments about how the orange jerseys must have made me look like a pumpkin.  To that I say, "Yeah, right, when have you ever seen an Orange and Blue pumpkin?"  I definitely looked more like a Boise State Football Player (or maybe a mascot, but definitely Boise State).

Wednesday was the middle of the week, and not too exciting.  We stayed up late helping Hunter with his skit for student council.  I hope he does well, we'll see.  He's pretty funny, so he can probably pull it off.  Talked with Kaylee for a while on Skype today, I can't believe she's coming home in a week!
