Father's Day 2026

I'm going to read the Old Testament. I decided today during Sunday school that I should, so I will. The teacher challenged us to all read it this year, and whoever does gets a steak dinner. One lady Colleen said she was already done, so that was when I was like "ok, I can do this..." After the church block was over, Peter and Katharine both ran up to Corey holding up some questionnaire papers that they had filled out during primary telling all about "dad". We got a real kick out of the portrait drawings they did. I loved the comments about exercising and healthy food, ha, that used to just be when they talked about me liking "salid". I like that Katharine knows he likes Mangos. 

Really precious. For my dad, my siblings and I went and helped him in his yard yesterday. For Corey's dad, we invited everyone over for dinner. We had a bbq outside. Corey and I were fasting because he yet again has an important meeting tomorrow. We're praying for the Lord to continue to lead him along step by step. Took a pic of the Wride men. 

and with uncle Jeremy. 

Mel and Christian got home from Brazil today. They went to church up in Bountiful with Christian's family, then came by here to say hello on their way back home in Lehi. Showing us some videos on their go-pro of them at Iguazu.

The kids got into my paints yesterday, and they found face paints in my collection of supplies and started creating on their faces. They washed themselves up before bed so they were clean for church today, but they got right back at it this evening. Slightly scary...

Peter joining in. 

Ugh, did people ever like clowns? Kat on bottom, Peter in the middle, that that is Natalie on the top, though it also looks like Lily. 

But then Lily showed up and this is what she had done to herself. 

Natalie had Lily help her better detail her scary clown face. 

As the evening progressed (at scriptures) nice...

I shall be hiding the paints tomorrow.
