Parenting Practice!

This week we got our first taste of parenting! We spent the week at the Simons house with the 4 kids while Brian and Jessica were in Hawaii! We had SO much fun! Since Brian is also the seminary teacher, we got to fill in at early morning seminary! The kids are in school so we sent them off each morning around 7:30 AM. Then we had until about 3:00PM before they would start coming home in intervals! We played splendor with Giselle almost every afternoon! Then we would watch movies in the evenings after kids had finished homework. The best part was having an oven and a commissary with all the ingredients I could possibly need for my favorite recipes! We made chicken rolls, enchiladas, lasagna, white bean chili, grilled cheese with tomato soup, and chicken tenders with mashed potatoes! We got to go watch Diamond play volleyball and watch Florence cheer at the high school which was really fun! Diamond also had a flag football game that we went to on Saturday! On Saturday morning I made cinnamon rolls! They were sooo yummy! That evening we went out to southern BBQ in Itaewon with the kids and to a Korean Noraebang (Kareoke room!) We had a BLAST! On Sunday we took the kids to church and then spent the afternoon hanging out. We made homemade taffy! We had so much fun hanging out with the Simons!
