Monday was the tennis banquet. About half the varsity team went to state and their second doubles even made it to the semi-championships so they had a lot to celebrate. We are glad that Cali and Chey have been having such a great experience with their coaches and friends.

Tuesday Beth and Ben had karate.

Wednesday Cali and Chey had piano lessons, Ben went to the police station with the scouts and then to the art museum with Nico, Beth had piano lessons, Chey worked at the city volleyball games, and then Cali, Chey, and I watched Hocus Pocus and ate caramel popcorn for YW. Fun times!

Thursday Ben had karate; Beth, Sarah, and I went to Sarah's wedding dress fitting; then we met Dad and Ben at the elementary school for parent/teacher conferences; then we dropped Beth off at karate; Kevin finished off the day with stake meetings.

Friday Savannah worked late and then met up with her friends from her freshman year (the Savvy Seven) for a birthday party and reminiscing. Cali and Chey went to a surprise party and then to another house for games. Kevin and I went out to eat, bought Ben some shoes, and went to the bookstore.

Saturday Ben and Kevin worked on their pinewood derby car. Ben also climbed our tree.

Bethany got to go to Lagoon with some friends.  Lucky, lucky girl! She also saw her favorite YouTuber there so her day was made!

Calianne babysat in the morning and got a new phone in the afternoon. That night, Cali and Chey went to the Stake Dance (Halloween themed) and dressed up as Dinosaurs with their friend Larissa.

Sarah and I visited all of the craft stores in Orem and bought flowers for her wedding. We are pretty proud of ourselves since we went from being overwhelmed and clueless to having a solid plan. Go us!

Kevin had a crazy week but finally got some hours Saturday night to finish the chapter he's been working on all week for his book.  That gave him some measure of peace. He is a very hardworking man and we love him!
