HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!

For Valentines Day, Tim got me roses and I made him breakfast in bed.  We were planning on going to a Valentines Dance, but got tuckered out by the end of the day and went to bed early.  It was glorious, we both slept in until 7:00 am which rarely happens. We didn't have to attend 7:00 am meetings like we usually do on Sundays :)

Our old dishwasher broke and it had a layer of gross film in it so we decided it was time to buy a new one.  Tim found a good one at RC Willy and it was installed on Monday.  The man who installed it also has a boy with autism who is about the same age as Luke and we had fun sharing stories about our cute kids.

 Friday night your dad, Luke and I went to put Grandma Stout and Grandma Shaffer to bed.  Aunt Barbara was there.  She came to Utah to attend the Roots Tech Convention (Family History) with Aunt Shauna.  They were telling us all about it.  This year they had 22,000 people attend.  I would love to go some time when things settle down.

I went to take care of Grandma Stout on Thursday.  Wendy was there and we all had a nice visit.  Grandma Shaffer put some exfoliate soap on her face and left it overnight thinking that it was moisturizing cream and it burned her skin.  We figured out what it was and it is starting to heal now.  Todd went to the dentist and he has no cavities!  That was the last step he had to do for his mission application so it should be sent in soon and we will know where he is going in a couple of weeks!  He is so excited!

I thought this was a cute picture of Todd carrying his sister's backpack.  

They have become good friends this year!

Wednesday was Father's Day at Waterford and Tim took Todd and Amy out to eat at the Training Table restaurant.  They had onion rings, fries and chicken sandwiches there.

Saturday I went to get Grandma Shaffer and Grandma Stout up.  The door was locked and I couldn't get in.  Wendy and Allen came and I went to Lowes and made three copies of the key.  Cousins Jill and Kim came to see Grandma Stout from Boise.  They will be here until Monday.  We had a nice visit.  Grandma Stout is starting to give away some of her things which is rather sad for all of us.  She is doing pretty well right now.  Her oxygen is a little low so she wears oxygen tubes throughout the day now, but her blood pressure etc.. look great.

Amy and I went shopping for several big events that are coming up.  Amy is going to a birthday party for Tiffany Xu, so we got her a birthday gift, Megan is having a shower at Grandma Stout's on Friday so we got some cute outfits for her baby boy, Alyssa is turning sweet 16 so we got her a necklace, and Kelsee is having a shower on Saturday at Grandma Stout's so we got several fun things for Kelsee, and the baby.  They don't know if the baby is a boy or a girl yet.  We will let you know when we find out. 

We are also going to Bryce Canyon, so we got some snacks to take for the trip.

I took Luke to the Special Needs Valentines Dance in Saratoga Springs, but he was having a hard time and wouldn't even get out of the car.  We will try again another time.
