Bill bugs and meeples
This past week in Utah it rained a lot. I tried to look up how much it was, but apparently that is difficult to find on the internet. Anyway, it was a lot. Today it even hailed a bit.
On Thursday we watched Music Man at the Pioneer theater. They did a good job of it. The program commented how surprising it was that the play was thematically relevant after 100 years, and that was in fact true (with the exception of the shapoopie song, which wasn't even relevant the day that it was written.)
They sang well, danced well, and enunciated well. They even watched their phraseology.
On Friday we had a mushroom hunt, which was not very successful (but was fun anyway).
Saturday we made a brie and went to the DI to discover a vacuum sealer on sale for $10. We bought it since I have been thinking of vacuum sealing cheeses and $10 is super cheap. We haven't used it yet, but we will soon.
Saturday we also went to Grandma's house and picked up some things that the grands were giving away. We got some awesome stuff and had fun. We helped drive the Stromberg kids home since Sheila and Scott got a car full, so we drove home with five energetic children in the back.
The girls wanted to go back again today (so we could get the canoe, but also so that we could be with grandma again.)
One thing we got was a routing table, which I hope to be able to make board game meeples (pieces) on.
Sunday we went to church, did home teaching and caught 'bill bugs' (pill bugs).
Today was family night, and we also talked with the Popes (a family that used to live in our ward.) It was a fun day.
