Connor is 2!!!

Monday I went and helped in Lauren's class and just did other Monday clean up.

Tuesday we cleaned up more around home.  Alan decided to work on the brakes on the car some.  He didn't get much chance to start them very early and stayed up late working on them.  I was too tired and went to bed.

Alan tells me this is really the suspension, but you get the idea...

Wednesday morning he told me they weren't finished and we couldn't drive the car.  We called some friends and they were able to take Jared and Lauren to school.  I tried to help Alan with the car a little bit before he went to work, but didn't get it done. We just stayed home again that day and played around here.  After work a guy from our ward that Alan works with came over and helped Alan.  He had worked on brakes some before.  They got them back to working.

Thursday was Connor's Birthday!!  We had to go to the store for a few things we needed and couldn't get earlier in the week.  Jared had cub scouts.  We made a frog cake for Connor.  In the evening we had a fun family party for him.  I also baked some cakes for a cake I was making for a friend.

Best Buddies

Connor made a similar face for all his presents.  His surprised look is great!

Friday I spent most of the morning working on a cake for a friend.  She was throwing a bridal shower for her sister.  We went to story time at the library.  After picking up Jared and Lauren we dropped the cake off.  Then we went to Frazier Farms and some other shopping we had to get done.

Decorating their own cupcakes with left over fondant and gum paste...and just being silly!

Saturday I went to a visiting teaching drive thru.  It's how they did Visiting Teaching Interviews.  We just pulled up on the back side of the church and we were given a paper to fill out about visiting teaching and breakfast (banana and muffin and water) by our visiting teaching district supervisor.  Then we just waited until a member of the Relief Society Presidency was able to climb in our car and see how our visiting teaching was going.  It was pretty fast and a fun way to do it.  They sent around sign-up for time slots so everyone didn't show up all at once.  We went to a builder workshop at Lowes.  That afternoon we were able to get some work around here done.

Sunday we went to choir practice before church.  After church Alan and I had to go to a teacher training meeting.  Alan has the responsibility to train all the teachers in the ward, so he had to present at the meeting.  I just had to go listen.  Our kids just went and played in the nursery with some other kids whose parents both also had to be there.
