People keep asking…
“How’s it going, without Rhen there?”
I always say, “Oh, it’s fine. I’m good.
I just talk to the cats.”
That is…if they’d wake up.
Sheesh.
Oh, yeaaaah–I’m pretty proud of these kids! They all entered the ESports competition for Strawberry Days in Pleasant Grove. Such brave souls. I was way too chicken–but I did come to watch.
Jillian, Lyndi and Rhen all entered the Dr. Mario tournament.
They played through the rounds and got pretty far. At one point there were people standing outside the school windows so that they could see the screens!
Some guy came over by me and started complaining about all the people that had beat him. I sheepishly said, “Yeah, that’s my daughter,” and “That’s my other daughter,” and “That’s my son.” All he said in return was, “Wow.”
I swear, I tried to keep a straight face. We will not discuss how well it worked.
Our boy entered the Smash Bros tournament because it’s his particular specialty. Watch out everybody else!
Rhen and this fellow got to the finals…
but of course…
there can be only one winner!!
No surprise to me who that was!
Congratulations Rhen!!!
But wait!! Right after that–we had another winner in the Smash Bros category!! Congratulations boy!!
I taught them everything they know.
BAHAHAHAhahahahaha!
What a fun time.
Hanging out with winners!
Heh, heh.
Rhenny boy’s wedding day breakfast consisted of two sausage, egg and cheese muffins and cantaloupe–some of his favorite foods.
I sincerely had no thought of making it into a happy face–it just went on the plate that way…I swear.
Paying extra attention to the little kitties…
that have no earthly idea that he’s leaving us today.
The drive to the temple was very bittersweet. All that he’s leaving behind but so much more that he’s heading toward. Look how happy he is!
At the temple at last.
Eternity awaits!!
Yes, I know–the place is a wreck. What can you expect?
This guy is packing up…
and leaving me in the morning. Can you believe it?!! After all these years and he’s going to run off and get married!! Hahaha.
He’s waited so, so long, and now in the morning the day will finally be here.
Ooooh, but I’m going to miss this guy.
I’ll especially miss this.
“Good night boy.”
“Good night momma. I love you.”
“I love you too. See you in the morning. Sleep well.”
“You too.”
(For the last time under this little roof. )
I love you my sweet son.
Go make all your dreams come true.
Always,
Mom
