Hi Katie!

So here we are in Pocatello and the kids are loving it. I really think they love the craziness that throwing all my family into one tiny area creates. Kids running everywhere, some screaming, some crying, some just sitting playing Nintendo (ok, that's just Luke) and adults ignoring all that (for our sanity) and talking over it all. Yeah, that about covers it. It's really nice to see Katie and Garrett again. Garrett is such a cutie. I LOVE his smile. He's one of those kids where when he gets in trouble his smile becomes wider and brighter. He knows it's cute and he knows how to use it! Watch out Katie and Jared!
We had a fairly lazy day of watching general conference and shopping. It must have been a little too dull for Katie since she tried to spice things up by starting a fire in the kitchen and then just watching it asking what to do next. While Katie, Marlene and I all stood around working on saving the kitchen from going down in flames by telling Katie to cover the fire with one of the two pots she had in her hand so I could get to the baking soda that was, of course, on the other side of the flames, Sadie ran to Grandma to ask what was going on. I guess three excited and occasionally screaming women in the kitchen worried her just a little. No worries, though, we took care of it and then the house just smelled like we were barbecuing for dinner. Then it was a night of watching the hubbies play Wii. Gotta love that golf and guitar hero! Hey, it was pretty funny to watch them sit in their chairs and JAM!
