Saturday January 4

It was kind of a big day for Madi.

She got to go to them Boise Temple today to do Baptisms for the Dead.

She has been so excited for this.

I am glad she had this chance to do it.

They went as a youth activity for the church.

Afterwards she went to her friend Carly's house, we also dropped Porter off there to play with Canon.

But before we did that, Dad, me and Porter went to Lowes for Port to pick out a paint color for his room and for his bed.

I gave him a couple choices for the bed, and he picked a copper color.

And a blue for his room.

I spent the day painting the room and Dad spent the day painting the bed.

Well, I guess it didn't take all day, but a good chunk of it.

I still need to paint his floors.

They are just cement floors and I have kind of a fun idea for them.....

So he will be sleeping in the living room downstairs for a couple nights before we can get it finished.

Elsie and Cassi just played all day.

They spent a lot of time outside, which they both really loved.

I wish I would have gotten pictures of them :(

Once Madi and Porter came home, Madi went to her first babysitting job to our neighbors across the street.

Another thing she has been excited about :)

She said she had lots of fun with the boys, and they were really good.

And to top it off, she got paid VERY well.

Porter helped me with dinner tonight.

He always gets so excited to help with the big people stuff.
