More Swimming and more fun

Once again, a busy week with work and friends and school and sports.  David is doing swim lessons 2 days a week with his friend Paxton.  They love it and they get to see their friend Anna there too.

On Thursday Aaron and Evelyn had a meet against Aloha, so it was fun to see all the Aloha kids too.  Both kids swam well - though both were tired and Aaron didn't even get to swim one of his events because there was a bit of a situation as the meet was getting going.  One of the girls on the other team fainted after warm-ups.  She didn't hurt herself, but the EMT's were called and the start of the meet was delayed by half an hour or so.  So they ran all the varsity events back to back - which was exhausting for all the swimmers who then had to swim back to back events with no rest and was emotionally difficult for everyone, plus they had to cut most of the JV events.  

Thursday, after school, while I was taking Evelyn to her meet, David went home with his friend Anna and hung out with them and they took him to swim lessons and then he came home with Paxton.  When he got home, he asked if he could have a sleepover, so we said yes since there was no school on Friday.  Then he wanted another sleepover on Friday night.  I caved and said yes, but he was super grumpy by Saturday evening!  


Dan has been working on a game scoring app - it will eventually work for multiple games, but for now,  he is working on getting it to do everything we want it to do for Dominion.  He's really put a lot of thought into it and it's really awesome so far!  He tested it on Thursday when he went to go play Dominion with James and Ben and it worked great - He even won a game and got to show it off to me :) 


Saturday, between the usual crazy - Dan and I met up with John and Melissa at the temple for a session, then after for dinner at Thai Basil.  It was so good to spend time with them and time at the temple! 

Saturday and Sunday have been our usual busy - I let the kids have fun drawing on the chalk board during primary - but with a purpose - they were supposed to listen for important words and then draw pictures of them on the board as we sang - we only had 4 kids in primary today, so I just let them all draw all they wanted and it worked great!
