Sink Fix, Parent teacher, and Abi visits Grace

One of my faucets in my bathroom is leaking around the bottom.  I know the problem because I had to fix the other one.  It just took me a while to do it, because I have to figure it out, and then do it. And if it doesn't work, then what.  I decided to do it.  I took it apart, and took a picture of what it looks like so I can put it back together again.  It looks kind of yuck  I had to much hard water and stuff deposited that i had to spray it with Lime Away and let it sit before I could get that part out. 

Here's all the equipment.  I have found it is best to keep the tools on a towel so you know where they are.  That is the new part in the middle.  

Take that part out, put the new one in, and replace the faucet.  That is it.  Oh and I cleaned it up a a bit.  AND now no leaks.  I should order like 10 of those parts so when my other faucets leak, I have them.  They are all the same. 

I had parent teacher conferences this week.  THE worst. 

They bring drinks around about half way, and this is the water I got.  

AND the Diet Coke.  So funny.  It made my whole day. Someone just put eyes on them and no one knows who.  I have a whole bag of eyes from a costume I had to make that I should bring and do that too.  

Abi was invited to Grace's house for her baby blessing.  Abi lives about 25 minutes away and she decided to go.  Cute pic of the family.  Abi of course got to stand by Mark.  We love Mark.  

Superbowl Party

 Superbowl Sunday!  Patriots vs. Seahawks is later today.  First, I went to church and lead the singing and taught the CTR 4.  I only rotate about 4 outfits on Sunday so I don't need to take another pic!  Nick was down from Utah State for the Superbowl and Basketball yesterday so I got to sit by him.  

Getting ready for the big game.  I really don't care who wins, but I did find this Jersey in Jack's closet.  I do love the Patriots. We did go to Their stadium and their museum a few years ago.  I opted for a Patriots Sweatshirt.  I didn't have any Seattle Gear.

Michelle hosted the party instead of Marlena since there is more room at her house  

Nick talking to the Grandma and filling her in on all the Utah State happenings

Ty, Brooke, Nick and Brooks.  He is Mitchell's baby and he is super cute and fat and happy.

Plenty of good food.  We had tons of pizza.  We can never decide on how much food we need.

Even more food.  Ty brought the Queso he smoked and it was fantastic.  I brought peanut butter bars, and I never hear the end of them. Really they aren't that good.  I'm sure it is just to make me feel good.

Great time was had to all.  Seahawks won.  We did have a meat fest in the garage. Marti bought a cow from his nephew, Tanner, and so he was selling it for $5.50 a pound.  I got a few lbs of hamburger.  Can't want to try it.  He says he has a cow picked out for next year.  He better get smoking some beef.

I ate a polar bear - Jack's email from Alaska

Yo what is up everyone! This week was pretty fire not gonna lie. We did a whole lot of finding and we didn't have any success whatsoever but it was still just such a good week. I did in fact eat polar bear which actually was pretty good. Sad sad day finding out the patriots lost the super bowl but that's okay. 

Tuesday 2/3: we had district council today so that was hecka dope receiving council on our areas and things. We had lunch and we had a lesson from a dude and he just didn't show so dip. We had an awesome dinner with this couple in our ward and it was hecka good food too. 

Wednesday 2/4: that same dude who no showed to our lesson said that we could go back today to have a lesson. We then went and knocked and no answer again so rip. We did more stop bys and it was honestly a long day ngl. We stopped by an inactive Polynesian members home and they invited us in for a lil bit that was hype. 

Thursday 2/5: we had weekly planning today so it was just a crap ton of phone calls today. We set up a couple of things for next week. We did some tracting today and that was chill I guess. We had a combined dinner with this inactive member today w some other missionaries so that was cool. 

Friday 2/6: had a meeting with my trainee today so that was chill. We helped move a piano for the stake president today so that was chill. We did some more stop bys. We then went tracting again and nothing happened. We did more stop bys and ended the day.

Saturday 2/7: we did a couple stop bys in the morning took some lunch, we had a lesson at night with our friend Tammy and I asked her what else she needs to do to grow spiritually and she said being baptized. So that was hecka cool miracle. We then had a dinner with a 8 yr old who's getting baptized at night.

 Sunday 2/8: we had church in the morning and it and the super bowl today. We went home and had our Correlation meeting today. Went to dinner and our members put on the game for us. Sadly the patriots lost so rip. Drake maye still the goat. We had polar bear at that dinner tho so that was interesting. 

 Spiritual thought: 

1 Nephi 2:3 

 And it came to pass that he was obedient unto the word of the Lord, wherefore he did as the Lord commanded him.

Weekend Started Early at Lakeside

Andrew asked me if I wanted to play golf with Mark and Jerry and him at Lakeside on Friday.  Of Course I did.   It was the day after Parent Teacher and I was thinking I would never get a sub.  I did get people to cover my classes so I was out of there.

We headed to Lakeside and it was beautiful  Jerry couldn't go, so it was just the three of us.  We tried calling Nick and he didn't answer.  We didn't know if they filled the spot until we got there.

These are the only pics I got.  I thought I got more, but I must have been too busy in the moment to worry about pics.  This is Mark. 

Love a good Lakeside.  

Andrew 

And me.  I decided to ride although it was so beautiful and the course is flat.  My foot was hurting so ride it was.  Andrew and Mark both walked.  They are so tough and sporty.  

Then we headed to the El Matador for Lunch. Beautiful day, good golf, good food AND good company.  And missed work.  Best day we all had in a long time. We need to do it again soon

Abi and Brody also had an early start to the weekend. They headed to Waste Management Golf Tournament on Thursday in Arizona.  

They saw Tony Finau and Jordan Spieth

This is hole 16 which is the wild hole where people throw bottles and stuff when someone makes a good shot.  They said it was Super fun.  I wanted to go this year, but didn't get around to getting tickets.  Maybe next year!  

Basketball again and Sun Hills

Church Ball rolled around this week.  Andrew and Nick both showed up to play.  Nick came down from Utah State to play the game.  

                                          Andrew is 32 in the white

Nick is 33 white

I showed up a few minutes late, and as soon as I walked in, someone said that I missed his Three point basket.  He scored a few more baskets also.  Andrew also scored

Their biggest fan.  

After basketball, I played some golf.  Yes, February we played at Sun Hills

Getting ready

It was a beautiful day.  Not too cold, but absolutely perfect.  This is the only pic I got.  I could put any pics of golf and no one would know if it wasn't Sun Hills.  

These pics were my friend Kim's photos she posted to Facebook.

There is NO snow anywhere.  That might make for a pretty dry summer.  We can't do anything about it, so might as well play winter golf.
