DS had his interview with the YP and an elder to join the church and take communion. It went well and they will recommend him for membership at the session meeting next week.

Even if he was going it would probably be one closer around here. I know there are some in Md only about an hr or so away. I don't hear about it though so I am not sure our church participates.

I don't expect a problem with his third book. He get done his books so early. I think he's usually done the first time by Halloween. He's always had about 6 weeks to spare after finishing everything.
My kids also buy the CD's with the songs for the verses which helps. DD2 had no problem with T&T book 1 and she was actually the age DS will be next year. The books are easier now so I don't foresee a problem there.

Busy weekend here! Ds1 and I rode up to Grandma's yesterday and back home today. 85miles each way. We had a blast!!!
My aunt was there yesterday. I got the "full report" on when my parents were there. They were there for about a week, and I guess my dad was a jerk the whole time. Why my aunt is mad at me, I'll never understand. Hey--I KNOW my dad can be a jerk. Nothing I can do about it!
Grandma is doing GREAT! Only problem is she "forgets" (ie refuses to use) her walker. She's nearly blind due to cateracts, which really affects her balance. Plus she's really hunched over which doesn't help either... Every time we catch her without her walker, she sheepishly says "Oh, I forgot..." Yah, right Grandma.

Congratulations to all of the AWANA award winners!
This is the first year that my church has used a different program and it feels really strange. My group will only have one award winner. It is going to be a very different program this Wednesday.

Well, the power steering fluid (I think that's what it was) was leaking and made everything really greasy. My dad got some stuff to seal the leak but I think it was just still greasy enough that it slipped off again. He fixed it in about 10 mins. this time I think.

Why, oh why can't I have a normal life??? Saturday night at church ds4 got into a fight with another kid. Punches were exchanged. Dh saw it and handled it. Once home, ds4 complained that his hand hurt. Sure enough, there's swelling. Dh didn't do anything Saturday. We got home early Sunday afternoon, and I didn't hear anything about it until dinner time. Yep, there's a lump. There's swelling. But, ds4 had no trouble manipulating his new transformer toy. He seemed a bit cranky but I figured dh had just let him stay up too late Saturday. Usually happens when I'm gone. THis morning we sit down to do testing. Ds4 can't hold a pencil... Not a problem, I can mark answers for him. So, ds4 now has a doctor's appt this afternoon.
Doctor won't be surprised to see us. I found out from another friend that he ran Flying Pig marathon yesterday, so I emailed him to congratulate him. Told him I'd most likely see him today...
I had hoped to get caught up on folding laundry while ds4 tested. Guess that's not gonna happen.

I hope it doesn't become too much stress for him. I'd rather have him there and learning than focus on how much he can memorize when he seems to really struggle with that, KWIM? Our boys' TnT leaders are great though and I'm sure he'll be fine. 
Dh & I took a nap after church & I just can't seem to get moving. Maybe I'll go through a load of laundry in (at least that would be productive)! We stopped by the Russell Stover outlet last night, so I may get a piece of fudge on the way to the laundry room! I'm sure the chocolate would help me have more energy - right? 
Some things I just wish my kids wouldn't share.
I am glad David won't be dating.
