Busy Weekend

Last Wednesday for mutual I put together a Life-Size "LIFE" game for my Laurels and the Mia Maids. It was a lot of fun. The girls all realized by the second game, they wanted to be sealed in the Temple and go that route. It didn't send them into outer darkness. We laughed a lot and had a blast.
Friday after Carl got off work we headed to Pueblo so I could decorate my friends house. See Photography & Decor Blog. Kya loves to wear her sunglasses, only she calls them "hangasses". We thought this was a cute shot of her chillin' in her seat, reading a book for the drive (of course).
And this is what we do with a potty trainee, when there are no stops nearby. She did not go, maybe she got road fright. But then 15 minutes up the road when there was a truck stop, she went on the potty. I am not a crazy mom, she has gone by the side of the road before. When you got to go...you got to go. Carl thought he needed to get a picture of this, and of course I had to blog it.
Friday night while I was working on stuff with my friend, the boys took the little girls fishing to a pond up the street. Kya was so excited to do this with daddy. They even went again on Saturday while again I was at the house decorating. I told Carl, "take the camera and get a picture of Kya holding the fishing rod". Silly Carl, he forgot. Sorry no pics of Kya fishing. While decorating we had conference on the internet in the background so we could hear.
Sunday we watched the morning session of conference on the internet (outside of Idaho or Utah we have to improvise a bit to get conference). Then for lunch we went over to our friends house and made breakfast. I love breakfast foods. Our friends have the "mountain" channel so we got to watch the last session of conference on their TV. They were so nice to let us come over. This was our first conference where we had to really pay attention, with four little ones playing and needing parents for one thing or another. Good times! What a great weekend.
Feel free to take a look at my Photography Blog to see the decor results.

You are brave for keeping her in panties for the trip. We still put a pull up on the wee one for the long trips. She doesn't usually go in them anyway, but it makes me feel safer. :0) Great idae though. :0) Love the picture.

You did such a fantastic job on that house! Especially considering you couldn't paint. What a talented woman you are!

Clancey loved to see all the pics of Kya potty training. I think it's helping motivate him. He wants me to tell her she should brush her teeth while sitting on the potty for entertainment. That's what he does. :-)

Very cute! We totally understand the along the road potty break. We have had to do it with colvert. However, it is slightly easier with a little boy. We are glad that she is doing so well at potty training. Kya keep up the good work.
