Stephanie went fishing out back tonight and caught her FIRST FISH EVER!!! She is excited to have caught a fish. Rad thinks it looks like a Perch but it isn't yellow enough. Then he thought maybe a carp. He said he will look it up.
Stephanie checked out a cook book from the media center at school last week. She happened to be there yesterday when I was helping out with school pictures. I was joking when I commented that she was returning the book and we hadn't made anything from it. She renewed the book. I told her she didn't have to but she wanted to. We made the mini muffins last night and tonight we made club sandwiches for dinner. She wants to make one thing from each section.Mini Muffins

Everything else is going along as usual. Ben is thinking of his birthday. Ben and Becca have a temple trip coming up next week (Becca's first time going). The girls have a friend sleeping over tomorrow night. We are officially 1/8th of the way through the school year. All good things.
