just another manic Sunday

I wish I could give this post the time it deserves, but Monday morning is here and I've got other business to attend to.

Saturday-

highlights:
  • soccer practice in the morning
  • crafts at the church in the afternoon
  • Halloween shopping
  • country western dinner in the evening
low points:
  • staying up until 2 am cleaning to get ready for Sunday
Sunday-

low points:
  • not getting enough sleep the night before
  • Simon pooping in the tub (there's a first time for everything)
  • Ben feeling under the weather
  • Luke not being able to find his belt
  • Zack spilling breakfast all over his shirt and tie
  • This ALL before 8 AM church.
  • getting spit up on during Sacrament meeting.. nothing 15 wipes couldn't handle.
  • crying during a special musical number-- "I love to see the Temple" sung by sweet girls from the Primary. I want a daughter!
highlights:
  • uplifting meetings. We have an incredible ward.
  • Simon going to nursery (he's not of legal age, but he LOVED it.)
  • finding out that Whitney's husband (who serves in the bishopric with Aaron) was the one who wrote Whitney's comment on the Houston, we have a problem post. I am still laughing...
  • Aaron calling the police on a man who walked in the church claiming to be Jesus. (He was wearing a tank top and shorts and smelled of alcohol.)
  • eating brunch together as a family... buttermilk french toast and fresh strawberries
  • taking a much needed nap
  • playing cards with the kids (Phase Ten and Skipbo are our faves.)
  • Zack wearing "zip-up feety" pajamas
  • reading scriptures on the trampoline after dark

I thought that comment was a little out of character for Whitney.

that's what made it so funny! I was so confused when I read it.

I'm really excited that I actually made one of your blog posts (and as a highlight of your day, at that)! I guess that's what I get for reading your previous post to Greg.
Ironic that the whole topic was about mixed up messages and then he posts a comment that everyone thinks I wrote. (Trying to be funny and everyone takes seriously).
Thanks for clearing things up!

Ha Ha Ha! I love knowing that Greg posted that in Whitney's name. I remember thinking that was pretty open for such a private lady, but I figure we all crack from our shell once in a while. Now that I know it was Greg, I'm laughing even harder. I went back to read it again, and the whole 50% of the time is hilarious. I didn't catch it the first time!

The comment was the highlight of my week, in fact. When I originally read it, I busted up laughing. And then I told Aaron about it. I never talk to him about my blog and hardly EVER about comments, so that is saying something. After I told him, he said, "She has to be joking" but I just kept laughing because it didn't seem like Whitney to joke around like that. My favorite part was, "Hope this helps." Oh, man. it's just awesome.
