About 2 weeks ago we were lucky enough to have the Latter-day Celebration Choir from UVU institute come down and perform here in Green River. We are quite out of the way, so it was really neat. I was nervous about how the kids would do, so we tried to hide in the back, but the director invited us up to the front row and then got on the mike and asked other kids to fill in the front rows. I was nervous, but I ended up being amazed! Robbie was absolutely enthralled! The singers winked and waved and smiled at the kids and during one song they put a hat on Robbie's head. Needless to say, we had to buy a cd and it is Robbie's new favorite. He wants to listen all the time. Belle and Peter seemed to enjoy it although Belle was having an "I need to be the baby and sit on mom's lap" day and Peter got jealous, so between the two of them I got quite a workout. It was an amazing performance, and I was so glad we went! Even Rob ended up appreciating it although he didn't want to go out--he is a homebody. This singers were amazing and their testimonies and the spirit were so strong.

In other news, I got a new calling about a month ago. I am the new primary chorister. I am enjoying it, but it is way out of my comfort zone. The kids are all really good, but for some reason my two don't want to sing very often.

Also, we are starting potty training. We got Peter a Lightning McQueen toilet of his own and he is actually showing more interest in potty training. Before he said, I don't want to wear underwear, mom. Now he likes to go and sit on his new seat! Hopefully this boy doesn't take two years to get trained!
