today Zack gave his 1st talk in Primary. he has been excited about it all week. just to tell you how excited he was, he was in my room before 7am asking me to help him get his church clothes on. for anyone that really knows Zack, you know he hates wearing anything but 2 outfits. i always have to bribe him on sundays to get him dressed. so, clint and i got some pictures together for him to color so he could hold them up during his talk and tell about them. i asked him who he wanted to help him during the talk and he said,"I want to do it all by myself". Clint asked, "what are you going to say", Zack says"I don't know". so we let it go and decide that he would want help once he got there. well we show up to the primary room and he mouths to me "don't help me" with a big smile on his face. i just smiled and sat down. the little girl in his class was before him and she said the article of faith and after they are supposed to sing the article of faith song, but before the music leader can get up there, Zack pops up and goes the to stand to give his talk. clint jumps up and tells him that they are going to sing first. Zack must not of heard clearly because he starts singing "I am a Child of God" in front of the whole primary. i started filming it, but i was laughing and crying all at the same time because it was just so cute, so it's a little wigglely. after he sang, all of the senior primary children broke out in spontaneous clapping for him. we weren't sure if we should go up and help him with his talk that he prepared, but before we decided the primary leader got up and thanked him for his message. in the end, Zack did give his talk all by himself.


i made some brownies for family home evening and the boys found the bowl. i think they enjoyed that more the the actual brownies:)

hot day

recently we had some really warm days, so the boys went out back and tried to cool off.
