I took the day off of work. It was good to get things done in the house. I finished preparing the food for the smoker. So far it is three turkeys and two small pork shoulders. I spent some time with Claire today taking her to school and picking her up. It was so cute. She was wearing a little pilgrim's hat made of construction paper when school let out. She loved that thing and was so cute wearing it. I was able to spend some time with the kids when they got home from school as well. That was good.
So - every day I prepare to do a brain dump of all I did for the day. I will do and go and experience things and say "oh yeah.. I need to write about that" but then I get here in the evening and forget. :-(
Samantha and I were in Provo today and there is a Czech bakery called Hruskas. It is a taste of home. When I walk in there it smells like my grandmother's kitchen. We picked up a couple of kolaches. I think I'm eating more carbs than I should but I hardly ever get to Hruskas so I gave myself a break and allowed me to savor the moment. It was so good.
Tomorrow I am hanging out with Ammon and Claire as the older kids take a trip up to Bountiful UT. I am looking forward to just some time with them. They are good kids.
