Texas: Day 5

We got up and dressed and ready to go shopping at Walmart. Practically every store but Walmart closes at lunch time on Saturdays in Bowie! Which I think is kinda cool, maybe a little inconvenient but it would be nice if more people would do that!  We were all pretty much ready and I had just finished brushing my hair:
Wyatt saw me brushing my hair so he wanted to try it lol

Then Jacob saw Wyatt brushing my hair and wanted to do it too 
Jacob says "Sarah, I'm fascinating" lol he meant to say I'm fascinated lol he was really enjoying playing with my hair haha
We went to Walmart and got some groceries and looked at some things for the house. Heith also got me some minutes for my phone so I could call people before and after I was on the plane and everytime in between! Lol I love when he acts all protective like a big brother :)lol
Heith was a bout "to die" in Walmart! Lol he hates being in public places, in that way I'm a lot like him so I understood how he was feeling lol! In Heith's exact words " Krystal, I've got to get out of here. I Can't ...(Gasp)..Stand it.. (Gasp)...Much.. (Gasp).. Longer!" Haha he's so funny even when he's frustrated or mad haha! 
This is goin to sound kinda wimpy but it was so hot! Even just to walk from the front door in walmart to the truck so it felt so good to have the cool air conditioning in there! So thank God for letting the air conditioning work!!! Wyatt was confused and thought the vents were what was makin it so hot so he kept closing them thinking it would get better lol. 
We stopped at a yard sale.Wyatt was so tired and ready to go home and go to bed!
Heith and Judson :)
This is one of my favs :)
He is so adorable! He was being so happy! :)
I had to take this so I could remember what Heith said about it! We were driving by and Heith said "wow it must be full" I was kind of confused so I asked " why do ya say that?" He said, " you see there's not a tall fence around it. Usually they have a fence. Do know why they don't put fences on the ones that are full?" I just said "No." Still sorta confused. He said " because when they're not full, people are dying to get in." And he said it with hardly any emotion on his face at all, except a hint at that smirk he always wears when he's teasing you. :) lol ya gotta love Heith and his sence of humor even if it may be corny at times lol! 

Once we got back to the house we ate, cleaned up supper, played and read books
And we read books...
And we read tons of books! Well... Not tons, just thirteen of them! Lol
But I enjoyed spending every minute reading to those priceless boys :) They found some books for me to read that brought me back down memory lane when my parents would read to me and my sisters :). Books like : Are You My Mother?, and lots of Dr.Seuss books;). 

We then had a nerf gun fight, which was extremely fun and funny! Lol then we sent boys outside to play and Krystal and I cleaned up the books and nerf bullets/guns.
And then we went and unpacked some more! We got all but a few unpacked but they were things that didn't need unpacking :). So we were excited! :D 
All this time Heith was either studying and working on his paper he had to have done on Monday, or trying to get minutes on my phone. We've all decided tracfone company stinks! And I've said if already Heith, but I'm really sorry you had to deal with all that. But thank you a lot! Anyway, by the time Heith got done it was time to get ready for bed. We got the boys in bed and Krystal was feeding Judson and getting him ready for bed. Heith got out the Oreos lol. Heith was nice enough to share with me and Krystal though! Yay! Lol Krystal was telling me her way to eat Oreos was the right way and mine was the wrong way! Lol they stick a toothpick in the middle and then dip it in milk. So they eat it on the toothpick so they don't get milk on their fingers, but guys, isn't that the best part? Getting the last bit of Oreo and milk off of you fingers? Yes. It is. No one can say any different. Lol jkjk. So me and Krystal had a great conversation along with our great snack :) then we all went to bed :).

Texas: Day 3

Hey again! We got up this morning at about 7:30-8. I ate a bagel for breakfast, and the boys ate cereal. We all got dressed and ready and went to the school. I went in class with Heith and Krystal for about two hours and then I went and helped out in the nursery with Wyatt. Lol he wasn't wanting to leave me after break I guess, because once I got in there he was fine :). I love it when little kids love me so much they want to be with me all the time :)! We made ducks out of paper plates and construction paper. They turned out really cute! I would have pictures of them and the boys in the nursery but I had my hands full! Lol. After class was over we all went back to the house and ate lunch which was ham sandwiches today :). We unpacked some more today while the boys played with some of the other missionary kids outside. We got a lot of it done! We even got to rearrange an clean  the house a bit! Yay! Krystal and I are excited :). I held Judson in this cool little strap thing. Lol I can't remember what it's called! 
Ain't he cute?

Right before supper the boys were playing hard outside! 
The boys all kept asking and begging for their cowboy boots which were packed away at the time. So Joshuah made a substitute lol. :)
Lil' Judson :)
Joshuah was trying to draw the same picture I did lol
Wyatt trying to draw too :). I think there were several holes in his paper before he was done. The funny thing is he was sitting at a desk but he didn't think about that I guess lol. 
Do you see what Joshuah is holding??
Yup! He was playing outside and caught a real live scorpion! Fortunately though bro. Rex (he is sort of the principal here) saw them and cut the stinger off so they could play with it. 
Boys wrestling :)

For supper one of the neighboring missionaries brought us barbecued chicken, some kind of rice stuff that was really good, corn, huge dinner rolls, and huge chocolate chip cookies! :) it was all good! At about 7:30-8 the some of the younger single girls here hosted a get together in the main building. They had games like apples to apples and Dutch Blitz. And they had small snacks like pudding, fruit, brownies and such. It was fun we went up there for awhile and then came back to the house to get the boys ready for bed. Once they were pretty much ready for bed, Krystal and Heith said I could go back over to the main building and play games and stuff because they had everything pretty much under control with the boys :). So I went back over at about 9 and stayed until a little before ten. It was lots of fun. I just played a couple of rounds of Dutch blitz, but I was fun :)! I helped clean up dishes and stuff like that and said my goodbyes and went back to the house. I took a shower got all washed up and ready for bed. And basically went straight to bed :)

Sorry I haven't been posting daily! I just got wifi and I've been busy!

Texas: Day 4

Hey again! Sorry I'm like a day behind on this blog!  Anyway, yesterday we got up at about 7:30 ate breakfast which was a bagel and a glass of orange juice for me. We went to the main building, dropped the boys off in their class/nursery, then we went to orientation ( Heith corrected me yesterday for calling it an introduction lol). I didn't help out yesterday in the nursery because there was a lady and I think her daughter. So they had it all under control :). So I got to sit in orientation with Heith and Krystal and listen to pretty much everyone's testimonies, including Heith's. I've heard his testimony before, but it's been a while , so I really enjoyed that :). There were some almond cake mix cookies In the kichen so during break we all went in there and got some :). They were good! But no worries Bekah,your chocolate chip cake mix cookies are way better ;)! We stood around and talked for a while and then we went home and had leftovers from supper and the boys all are pb&j's :). We upacked some more and just cleaned up a bit from lunch and stuff. The boys played outside while Krystal made spaghetti and I made the garlic bread from the leftover rolls :) ( that was Krystal's idea). After supper the boys and I went back outside to play and Krystal was playing her new piano that she had just got set up. Jacob came back in and played the piano with Krystal. :) They found out that it made all kinda of noises! Jacob came and got me and told me " Sarah! You HAVE to come see this! We're playin' some serious piano!" Lol On the setting that Jacobs liked to play each key made a different sound. So here they are playing the piano :)
They were having a ball!
The younger girls that are here and Michael (he is one of the teachers here) and Jonathan (he is a student here), Heith and I went outside to play Ultimate Frezbee. It's like football and soccer mixed but you play with a Frezbee.  It was fun but we were all hot and sweaty!
Snap chat with Jacob :)
I picked out Judsons outfit yesterday :)
The boys all had to get their energy out before bed so Heith and the boys all wrestled. Krystal said " who needs a TV when you got this to entertain you!?!?" Lol it was definately entertaining! 
Sorry they're abit burry (again :P)
Wyatt decided to take a break :)
He's up and ready! Lol
It looks like its three against one haha


And Heith pins them all down at once! Heith is the winner! Lol
Jacob vs. Wyatt :)
Jacob has him pinned!
But Wyatt gets up!
Wyatt tackles Jacob to the ground :)
He's ready! :D

 


Then they took turns fighting with their daddy :) it's Wyatt's turn!
