Logan to Rigby

Stockton drove his jeep back to Logan today. I drove my dad's in Maysen's car and met him at the Bungalow. (Stockton's new house with his buddies.) We met Jorja at Morty's and had dinner. That was really good. My dad, Stockton and I then drove to Matt and Sam's house. We got there late, but we made it. We watched the Jazz game, where most of their starters and some backups were out. They almost pulled it off, but ran out of steam. I also spent forever trying to get Maysen a covid booster appointment. She wants to get the booster before she goes to Rachel's house next week. It took forever but we finally got an appointment for Sunday at midnight. We are sleeping at Matt and Sam's because Anne gets baptized tomorrow! Stockton and I are sleeping in Jeff and Greg's beds. My dad is sleeping in Anne's bed. All of Matt's kids are sleeping in Amy and Kaylee's room, which they do almost every weekend.

My favorite skirt is unraveling. Boo 

Jorja Went Home

Today was Jorja's last day here. Preston is going to miss her so much. He has loved having Stockton and Jorja home. I'll miss her too. Bear was mopey after she left as well. Jorja picked up Beth and Kinley at the airport and brought them home. She took the pilot so she could fit everything. We will be in Logan on Saturday and will be able to trade cars. Alyssa was over listening to Stockton read his plates. He really wanted to finish them today. He has them mostly done. Alyssa ended up sleeping in Stockton's bed and Stockton slept in Jorja's. I hope the kids have a great semester. Sad to have them leave after having them home for so long, but I'm so proud in all they are accomplishing!

I had a dentist appointment this morning. I got a temporary crown on. My first ever. Hopefully my last. Becky and Camee took me out to lunch for my birthday. I changed the plan on them and asked to go to Zupas. I could tell that isn't Becky's favorite place, but I was having a hard time opening my mouth. Soup was perfect. We had a great time. Becky and Camee are so nice to me.

Who Knew?

Jorja took a friend out to lunch today and then hurried to Provo to sign papers for FSY. Although she accidentally took her covid booster card instead of her social security card. Whoops. (Turned out it was okay because she had her passport.) Jorja has felt pretty well after her booster. Hasn't really been sick at all. That's nice. This is her last day here. We went shopping one more time for a few things and then brought Habbit Burger home for everyone. I had never been there before, but it was pretty good. Also...

These are surprisingly delicious! 

Weird Art

Preston had a dentist appointment early this morning. I really wish I scheduled this for next Tuesday instead. Then I could have let him stay up later last night with Stockton and Jorja here. Oh well. Jorja and I went shopping today. We have been on the hunt for some khaki pants. She needs those for the ambassador program. We found something that might work, but it wasn't our favorite. We also saw the weirdest art! I'll put those pictures at the end. We met Mike, Stockton and Preston at a Japanese restaurant today. It was delicious and fun.

Jorja wanted a covid booster shot before she went back up to Logan. She said she didn't want to take the chance of having to miss out on anything after what she dealt with last year. Jorja is leaving in a few days. The only place we could find was CVS in Taylorsville at midnight. Well, they had appointments all day tomorrow, but if we went at midnight she could sleep it off. That is what we did. When we got there the pharmacy was closed. The worker told us to just knock on the window. We did, but no one answered. We tried for awhile and finally went and got the worker again. They went back and got someone to help us. They had earlier told us that the window was never down. Sounds like there was only one person back there and they were super busy. They were nice when they came out to give Jorja her booster shot though. Glad to have that done.

Dentist, Haircuts and an Interview

Maysen and I started the day really early. She had a 6:30 dentist appointment. I went with her and waited in the lobby. The sunrise was so beautiful. Hard to capture it though.

Stockton had a busy day. First he got a haircut. He spent a long time late last night shaving off his beard. He looks great though! I love seeing my boy under all that hair. Haha

Stockton after

The reason he shaved his beard is because he has a FSY interview today up at BYU. Before the interview Stockton and I met up with Alyssa and her mom at JCWs in Provo. It was pretty quick before Stockton and I left to go to his interview. I waited for him like I did Jorja. He said it went really well. I then dropped him off at Alyssa's house in Mapleton. Alyssa's mom had to take someone to the airport later today so she brought Stockton back home.

Preston also got a haircut today. We went to Wild Boar Barbers and had Dylan cut his hair. He cut Stockton's too this morning. I really like going to him.

Preston the Priest

Today was a great day. We now have 11:00 church, so that was nice. Alyssa left this morning to make it to church at her home ward. Preston was ordained a priest after church. Stockton performed the ordination, which was so great. My dad came over to our house after and made the kids milkshakes, per tradition. Haha. The kids found a new game to play with Bear dog. They would throw a ball down the hall for him to chase. He would and would go flying over the stairs. Balls are important. Worth risking your life. He never got hurt and the kids had so much fun playing with him.

Bear dog loves the balls 

We played You Don't Know Jack and I actually won! That is a rare occurrence, so I had to document it. I was Bear Dog. (The kids make fun of me because my name is the first thing I see when we are signing in. Purple pencil. Red Balloon. Etc.) Preston was Gex and Mike was Five Finger.

Jorja & Stockton ~ Love having these two home!

Brookers New Year

 We had a lot of fun playing games today. I also was able to get everyone to go to Brookers Founding Flavors with me. So yummy! Everyone loved it. Nice. Enjoy the pictures that came in backwards again. I tried to take a selfie, but Jorja had to show me how it is done. She's much better at it than me. Haha

Alyssa stayed over again and helped Stockton work on his plates. We played more games tonight. Jorja cleaned the entire kitchen. I am loving this Christmas break!
