Today was supposed to be dreadful taking 3 kids to get flu shots. Lauren is deathly afraid of needles to begin with. We talked through it and Landon said he would go first to show Lauren that it was no big deal and he was real tough. Lauren said "Mom, I want to go first so I can just get it over with." So Lauren ended up going first. I helped her hide her face in a magazine and she hardly flinched. AMAZING! Then Landon, same thing. They were both so brave. Lauren was terrified of watching Morgan get her shot so she plugged her ears and covered her eyes. Morgan only cried for a second. Great... done. We went to Costco for big fat ice cream bars dipped in nuts and frozen yogurt. Delish. Then Tim called and said come up to my office at 5 and we will do something fun. We decided dinner is always fun so we went to a pizza place we had never been before that was SO SO good. So it was a very fun night and much better then expected!
When we went to Tim's office he took us up on the Helipad. The kids think that is pretty fancy. I get a hurty tummy when the kids go by the edge.
Our new church building is moving along quickly but still behind schedule. All the framing has gone up in the last 2 weeks. It is really fun to watch. I can see the roof and steeple peeking up over the school from our back door. It has created a bit of buzz around here because it is such a nice building for the area everyone wants to know about it. Should be interesting. The Mountain at the bottom is Mt. Adams. It is a volcano directly west of here. If you could see past that you would Mt. St. Helen's. Just a fun fact.
