My boss and many of my supervisors are gone for this entire week due to training conferences, girls camps, and scout camps. I guess this what happens when you work in the summer. However, the lack of people has made my days go by very, very slow. But I made it through the work day and left to venture into the 90 degree Utah weather!
With the temperature being so hot lately, Kaleb and I have been furiously watering our little plants on our porch. Our poor bean plants caught a little disease, so those are on their way out, but we are excited about all the other little sprouting flowers that we are able to see growing :)
After spending the weekend in Idaho with family, it was time to restock the kitchen with food. So off to Costco and Walmart we went! We have both determined that shopping is one of our very favorite things to do together. In fact, I consider it a major stress reliever, and also great exercise! Of course, we do get treats whenever we go to Costco and check out the food sample tables ;)There is nothing better than opening the fridge or pantry and actually seeing food inside! Overall, lots of joy in our little home :)
For family home evening we talked about the scripture Enos 1:27 and contemplating meeting the Savior for the first time. Then, in remembrance of our dear, recently passed Apostle, Elder L. Tom Perry, we learned a little bit more about his life and watched a brief video biography called, Remembering the Life of Elder L. Tom Perry. I highly recommend it! It is such a great summary of his life and the lessons and themes that he lived by.
After this sweet lesson, we made a Kjar family recipe of Chocolate Oat Chip Cookies. To die for! I admit that I ate about 5 cookies before going to bed...
Although the day started begrudgingly, I am so glad that I was able live the day as I did and spend my time with my sweet husband :)
