The Saturday Situation

Bri is off helping the rest of the Davis clan make funeral arrangements for Nanni that passed away last Wednesday. It is amazing how time flies. I am happy for the good memories of her.  In the meantime we are keeping ourselves busy.  We took Emmy to piano this morning and went to the park while she played. Emmy is finally learning to curve her fingers just right while playing. Her nails are usually too long so she lays her fingers flat.  I guess there can be cons to having healthy nails!
Celia was so cute at the park. She would close her eyes and tell me she was flying. She has such a great imagination, I'm sure she was! We went school shopping at Target and Office Max. Joseph needed a backpack with wheels since they don't have lockers in Jr. High anymore. The lists of supplies they needed went on and on. Prepping for the first day of school times four really feels like getting ready for Christmas to some long awaited event. So much needs to be done and all the kids are someone what ready now.

Patty and I got to go to Mimi's cafe and shopping yesterday to celebrate our birthdays. It was great to see her at the fourth ward party we crashed tonight. Emmy wanted a ride to the Mormon Center youth Dance and she needed to meet Paige there.  I feel a little bit like people wonder if I just don't like our new ward because we visit a lot. It is not true, we love our new ward. We have the best of both worlds!  Spencer loved the Luau decorations, the rice and the drink with cute bendy straws. He started to sing loudly to the music so we left early.  We're making it, but will be happy and excited to have Brian back asap. I'm also excited for Spencer to start school and get tired out at night for a good bedtime routine. He hasn't been sleeping well at all for a few weeks and I'm starting to really value, hunger and thirst after, a full night's rest.  This too shall pass and I'm sure I will be more grateful for sleep when it comes again.:)
