Today in church was ward conference. We had the stake leaders there from early morning meetings to afternoon conferences. Your father was busy. The ward supported him in many ways. I had all of my piano students sit up with me and play a song or two each, for prelude. It's always nice to involve the youth. They did a wonderful job.
Breyer going to church today
Our stake president, instead of choosing whether it's a Sunday School week or not, he combined them. He taught Sunday School with the Relief Society President introducing the class. Your father met with the young men. We had a lunch afterwards.
President Harmer and his presidency came up with an acronym for their year's theme: TEMPLE. Trust in God, Endow, Minister, Press Forward, Love and Endure. Good stuff.
Sawyer on the mound
Sawyer probably won the March Madness tournament this year. Luke was his closest competitor. He also came in second in the Granbury High School tournament.
Miller had a game Saturday in freezing arctic northern wind. I sat in the car, facing the field, and did not feel guilty.
Miller was invited to a birthday party at a ninja warrior type obstacle course facility. He had a ball but was annoyed by little boys in the way. Rolling my eyes.
Cooper had a big tennis meet Friday in Granbury. Your father was finally able to go. He got a lot of good clips, and came home again with the first place trophy. The final match was the game to see. The players were the most competitive and it was a fierce battle. Cooper played spectacularly, covering for his partner who apparently was having an off game. Cooper had Gammons show up to watch the final battle. He had also stopped by first thing in the morning but Cooper wasn't playing then.
Cooper's piano skills have improved greatly. Something about the Senior year when piano playing becomes more enjoying than a burden.
Cooper and his two amigos were asked to work on a yard in Bentwater, and made serious moola yesterday. He might need a bit to cover the cost of him backing my 4 Runner into the neighbor's car inconveniently parked at the end of the driveway. He suctioned the dent out of the pick up truck, but has yet to reattach the corner piece that Hunter also dented and was just repaired. Twice. Rolling my eyes again.
We played Apple to Apples tonight. Sawyer was the clear winner, but we might have a new twist. Playing the audio of the card in question. Back Street Boys? Demi Moore? Audio added a new dimension to the game, beginning when Breyer had no clue.
Then, we played "What-song-would-Mom-and-Dad-add-to-their-playlist game. They each picked a song to play, and we had to decide which one we liked the best. We all have such eclectic taste it was funny.
I'm spending the next three days in Fort Worth at a tactical SWAT training class. Too much fun. Less of a drive, and a few more hours to sleep. It's a win-win.
Sweet dreams -
Love,
Mom
