For Family Home Evening we needed to get some things cleaned up before the cabinets were going in the next morning. So, it was pizza and construction dust for dinner. (Hyrum prepared and gave the lesson, Sariah recited the 13th article of faith. Rex and Lyle are permanently on prayers for awhile.)
Taneil and Dave are trying to get their trailer livable so we are seeing the beautiful Libby and Jhett for a few hours here and there while they do their own construction.
Lyle learned to roll his tongue this week.
The week's crowning event:
Our Annual Valentine's Dinner with the Caziers, Taylors, and Brittons. (Woodwards had their baby this week so they didn't make it.)
Zach and Lizza made it a beautiful evening.
Fancy, Fancy!
Not just gorgeous, but delicious.
Mixed greens, supreme grapefruit and avocado, candied walnuts with poppyseed dressing.
Tomato and basil cream soup garnished with a parmesan chip.
Tri-tip sirloin braised in red wine reduction with parsnip puree.
German chocolate cake a la mode with chocolate covered strawberries.
Wow!
And those aren't just fancy names, it's the real deal with Lizza!
James and Talmage spent the day yesterday working on lights, outlets, and switches. James went to wash his hands out at the spicket and NO water. Our "no freeze" system froze. We just hope no pipes are broke. Thaw is coming mid-week---we'll see. Wood flooring should be coming soon. James picked up the rest of the tile. Light at the end of the tunnel? Yes, but it's still a very long tunnel.
Snow and wind last night made for cancelled church today. We spent the morning watching Mormon Messages and the big kids played in the snow this afternoon while we napped. (Really miss that with our new church schedule.)
