Today everyone but Peter was well enough to go to church. Heidi stayed home with him and I took the rest of the kiddos. David wasn't quite ready when it was time to start walking. Gram and Papa kindly gave him a ride.
After church Papa and I went and home taught the LaSueur family. They literally live two doors down. They may be the closest home teaching family I've had. They recently got home from a one year mission in the Washington DC area. Heidi actually met them at the DC Temple. They gave their homecoming talks today. They have 7 children and 45 grandchildren. I think Sister LaSueur said they currently have 7 great-grandchildren. They seem like a great couple. I look forward to getting to know them better over time.
This afternoon we had Executive Family Council with Gram and Papa. We like to call it the meeting of the Oligarchy. These meetings really help us stay on the same page.
The kids watched the movie Sing. It's about hard on their luck characters competing in a singing contest. It's pretty cute.
It is a blessing for several reasons to be able to go to church and to have a home teaching assignment (w a bonus of having a spiritual dedicated companion) and to be able to meet w our kind Bishop in our annual tithing settlement. And to complete a good sabbath we had our weekly oligarchy (��)meeting and family prayer mit goodnight hugs
