Primary Lesson

The primary lesson for June 6th was about the 10 Commandments and how the Children of Isreal were disobedient while Moses was gone. Daniel thought up the perfect lesson for this and this is how it played out:
So I always teach the lesson and the students are always asking when Dan is going to teach. This week he came in and said, "Alright I have a great lesson that I am going to teach this week but I have to run home and grab all of my stuff for it. Clint you are going to be the reverence police while I am gone and you are in charge, pretend like you are Aaron Moses' brother" At first the kids were reverent...so I tried to get them a little more hyper by giving them chalk for the chalk board. The best comment given by one of the students while Dan was gone was, "The lesson isn't going to be worth it if it is going to take him this long to get the stuff."
When Dan came back with his backpack the kids were hyper and yelling and such. Dan then totally laid into Clint about why the kids were misbehaving. I thought that Clint was going to cry! (Note: Clint is the most hyper student in our class). Dan then told the kids that since they weren't reverent while he was gone they couldn't do the fun lesson and he would have to go back and grab the binder to teach out of.
When he came back the second time Clint kept saying, "Let's just do the fun lesson instead."
One of the younger girls that was in our class because their teacher was gone said, "He chose Clint to be the reverent police because he wouldn't keep us reverent."
Dan then explained to the kids the story about Moses and the 10 Commandments and how the Isrealites were when he was gone. :)

Get A New Car: Check / Sell The Old Car: Check


That's right we finally got a new car. Daniel had been thinking about it for a while, but after a hot drive down to Bluffdale and Kaysville for Mother's Day he decided that it was time to get a vehicle with air conditioning. We both researched cars for a couple of weeks and had narrowed what we wanted down to 3: Toyota Corolla, Mazda 3 Hatchback, and Subaru Impreza Hatchback. After test driving a Corolla and a Subaru we decided we like the Subaru better. We then looked at what Dealerships down in Salt Lake had. In the end we ended up with a 2006
Black Subaru Impreza.
Tuesday night we put an ad on KSL.com for our truck, that site works! We got 4 calls within 24 hours. We were lucky to only have 2 vehicles for one hour. A guy drove up from Castledale to buy our truck.
Goodbye truck!

Spring Break










For those of you who were wondering what we did for Spring Break...




On Monday we left around 2pm and headed down to Park City following as closely as we could to the relay race Daniel will be running in June. When we reached Park City we made a quick pit stop at McDonald's to eat and check our e-mails. So cool that places are providing WiFi! After a couple of wrong turns...we went to the Olympic Park. We had a great time there, everything is free, you can even walk around the park for free if you would like. We paid $7 each to go on a shuttle bus where a tour guide explained everything to us. The tour guide was able to tell us all sorts of cool facts about the sports and how they train in the summer. After that we went to main street Park City to walk around and so I could buy a magnet.
On our way back to my house we stopped and bought some running shoes. We stayed the night at my parents' house.
On Tuesday we picked my dad up from his work and went to a German deli. We had some good food there! We then dropped my dad off and went to the Old Dutch Shope to buy some European candies. After that we headed up to Kaysville and put together a bookshelf.
On Wednesday we went to Rachel's school play. It was so cute! I loved it. I was glad she wasn't a book worm like she wanted to be...I thought that they were annoying. We then packed up and went home and spent the rest of the week watching almost every NCAA Men's Basketball Game.
