This past week has been awesome! Our garden is just growing so fast, but so are the weeds. So we spent some time pulling weeds this week. It is so much more fun to do things like pull weeds when you have someone to do it with. :) Rob had to go to the doctor for the first time this week in a looooooong time. He hurt his foot pretty bad we think it was from jumping on the shovel over and over, but luckily it wasn't broken. I guess he had a pretty bad bruise on one of his plantar fascia tendons. Anyway...so he just has to tough it out...which he is pretty good at.
Rob and I are primary teachers and this week we played a fun game that the kids really enjoyed. One of the stories in the manual was about John Widsoe when he was young. To make a long story short, he earned a gold coin worth 5 dollars and wanted to give half of it to his mom, buy a book, and save the rest. (if only 5 dollars could go that far today) Anyway, on his way home, he reached into his pocket to find a hole and his coin was gone! So he looked, couldn't find it, then he prayed, and the Lord helped him find it. So we thought it would be fun to do a penny hunt outside with our primary kids. They loved it! They were running all over the place looking and looking. It was hilarious. So while Rob was outside "hiding" the pennies, a member of the presidency came up and the kids informed her that we were playing the penny game for the 3rd time. She asked what it was, and they just said "its like an easter egg hunt with pennies! It is so fun!" I tried to get them to tell her how it related to the lesson, but they just were ready to go get the pennies. The sister was probably thinking..."Oh boy..." I thought it was funny.
Sadie rolled over for the first time a week ago. She did it three times right in a row, but she must have forgotten how to do it because she hasn't done it since. She is just such a cutie. Here are some pictures of her in some of her cute clothes.

This is an outfit that Ben and Lindsy sent for her. I love it! It was her first pair of jeans, although they were a little big...
First time besides at the hospital that she is wearing a bow in her hair. I love her summery dress!
We are going to Arizona to visit my parents on thursday so we are pretty excited about that!
Hope everyone has a great week!

You both look so cute! I can't wait to see her in real life!
Sadie is so stylish! And I think that your game was right on-if kids are having fun at church, they learn it's a good place to be. :)I hope you have so much fun in Arizona!
a penny hunt sounds like a fun game to me! Sadie is getting cuter and cuter. Will you guys be home next Monday -- we're going to be passing through that day!
Sorry about Rob's foot. I hope it gets better soon. How long are you going to be in Arizona? Sadie is adorable. We all need to hang out again!
