Surprise

What an orphan, I promise I do give him baths and wash his face and hands all the time.
Friday was a fun day. Colton and I went with Matt home teaching to the Liebes. They live kinda kiddie corner from us. It was fun to get to know them better. They have a 13 yr old boy and a 2 yr old boy, Carl that is in Nursery with Colton. He got to play with him and see their dog. Then we walked back home and stopped and saw the horses and cows. We came back inside, then when Grammy and Grandad came home, we went out to see them. While we were out there, Les Smith, stopped by and said he had to ask me a question, I was a little nervous wondering what I had done, or was about to be asked to do. He said he made little tables out of scrap wood and counter tops and wondered if we would like one for Colton. I said, yes, we would love one. I asked how much and he said, nothing I just do it to tinker around. Well, I thought it was beautiful, we just need to add some stain to it, to help protect it. Colton loves it, he thinks he is all grown up with his own little table. What a great surprise!! I'm so grateful we live in such a good ward, and have such great neighbors that do things for others and makes their day.
Today, I had my launch party for Usborne Books, well I think everyone forgot. I invited over 60 people and only had 2 show up. It was disappointing, but it was okay, not like I'm trying to do it for a living, good thing. We had fun with the 4 of us.
