Joey is Making French Toast

With the help of his mom Joey is learning to cook. Way to go Joey.

Here's some cute pictures

New Rule

After we go through the list, drawing from five jobs at a time which we've done pretty much now, I will draw from all the jobs and give a prize for the first one to send in a picture doing that job. So keep working on all the jobs and sending those pictures. I just drew making the bed. Davy was the first one to get a picture doing that job. Lydia and Alice both sent a picture doing that job but since Davy was the first one he will get the $5.00 prize. Keep working at your jobs and get someone to send the picture. You must do a good job and not just pose for a picture. It is on the honor system. Someone is always watching what you do. It is unseen angels. Go for the goal. Now you can work on the next five jobs I listed.

The New Jobs List

Here are the new job list!


Clear the table - Bring in plates, silverware, glasses and put them in the

dishwasher or wash them by hand. Wipe off the table. Sweep the kitchen floor

Make Bed – Make your bed before breakfast, without even being reminded.

Work outside when asked to do a task by your parents.

Cook a snack or part of a meal.

Help your family do Home Evening.

I didn't get Eliza Janes cute pictures of scrubbing pots and pans and turning out lights. Thanks! It is difficult to get the pictures on the blog sometimes.

Sophia practices piano 1/2 hour and wins the prize

Elise made it through

Elise made it through babysitting those cute Lindsey kids. I will admit they were not too cute throwing up. One got the bug and as I told Elise, it will go through the whole family. Luckily Elise didn't get sick but didn't get too much sleep the whole time the parents were in Hawaii. Jeanne got a much needed and deserved break.
Cooper had his ball games and practices and even though they were not feeling well they got to watch movies in the car as he was in the gym. Miles threw up in the car. Elise got some really good movies at the thrift stores so they at leasat had good entertainment while they were sick. Cleaning up after the sickness isn't too much fun but I guess it comes with the job. Now because of the storm in Seattle she is staying a whole week longer. She has missed church 2 weeks and they were all unhappy about that. Live will soon be back to normal. Don't know anyone who could have handled the situation any better and it was one time Jeanne didn't have to deal with it and could go out and have a nice time. Not easy to take the place of both parents with 6 kids. Glad Jeanne isn't a worrier or her time could have been ruined.

The winning job is cleaning the bathrooms.

Here are a few very cute pictures so keep them coming! Hyrum's picture was cleaning the bathroom and he gets $5.00. (I will admit an unfair hint but noone was sending pictures) No child gets hints more than one time. Very cute of Lydia also. Jaxon nearly won as he was the only other with a picture in the catagoy chosen. We have drawn a new winning job from the listings 20-24.Turn out light, hand scrub pots and pans, etc., Reverent in Church,(take a picture of your child after church and send if he was reverent the whole time. Happy working together with no arguing, practice talents 1/2 hour a day. This can include anything that is a talent and not just music. Thanks for your efforts.
