Joseph's Baptism, Visitors

We had quite the busy week! I have notes this time so I can remember it all.

Thu.: Heads arrived, pizza for dinner, games.

Fri.: Doctor's appointment, prepped food for the baptism, Phenix parents arrived in afternoon, kids swam at hotel pool with the Heads, family dinner, games at the hotel (James), Phenix siblings arrived.

Sat.: The baptism! family lunch afterward, naps and games, dinner, hanging out and talking.

Sun.: Church with the family, lunch, naps and hanging out, dinner, Phenix siblings left, episode of When Calls the Heart.

Mon.: Weekly deep cleaning, lunch with parents, naps and hanging out, anniversary dinner with James while Phenix grandparents babysat, ice cream at Coldstone with surprise song and a dozen roses, episodes of When Calls the Heart.

Tue.: Dad replaced 6 outlets while we were at the park, stopped at neighbor's house and parents bought us some beef, lunch, naps, dinner, temple with Mom, no Internet.

Wed.: James and kids went to the parade, Dad replaced 2 doorknobs and checked out the Highlander for problems, lunch, naps, big 4th of July dinner with all the good stuff, parents left for Salt Lake, put the house back together, still no Internet.

Thu.: Back to the usual.

Two things I am especially grateful for:

1. All the events leading up to, during, and after the baptism went very smoothly. Joseph looked very peaceful when he came out of the water. It was perfect in so many ways.

2. Lewis finally recovered from his nasty virus. He was sick for a whole week! I really love that little boy and am so glad to have him back even though it means huge messes and lots of mischief.

I think the next week will be a little calmer.
