book of mormon class

wednesday is always a busy day for me.  we usually have our primary presidency meeting wednesday mornings at 9 and then i quickly head off for my weekly book of mormon class that starts at 10.  the class is held at my mom's church in bountiful and is taught by diane hallstrom.  her husband is a member of the seventy.  she's amazing and knows everything about the book of mormon.  i'm amazed every single week at the things she brings out of the pages of the book and how she has taught us an appreciation for what it teaches us.  it is slow going, we started meeting in september and have made it to jacob 5.  so, we'll take the summer off and start up again in the fall until we work our way through. 

doug and linda took craig and me to dinner last night to celebrate craig's birthday, which is saturday.  we had a nice time visiting at a small, warm italian restaurant on 1500 east.  it was fun to catch up with them because we don't get to see them very much.

unfortunately while we were gone, jake fell asleep and slept for 2 1/2 hours, which isn't good when you are as busy as jake.  so he was up late finishing school work that needed to be turned in today before he left for valley forge.  caroline had young women, where she is learning to tie a quilt.  i must say, that is not her favorite thing to do.  sam had a board of review, where he was advanced to a "life" scout, which means he can get his eagle in september!  that we be a new record for our family.  isaac is trying to catch up in school from being gone last week, but he still had time to fit in a long bath and also american idol.
