Weekly Letter January 23-30, 2017

This week there were some fun things that happened that normally don't.  On Monday my family did a Family Home Evening over at the BeeHive House which is an assisted living center.  All prepared a great lesson.  There was tell me something good, we played quarta quarta who got the quarta.  Butch who is blind is a stud he was a lot of fun.

I took my young men to the Clearfield aqquatic center we had al the deacons teachers and priests.  It was a lot of fun them seemed to enjoy it.  This week we are going to a Werber State Basketball Game and then next week we are going to the Weber County Jail.  It should be a good time

Thursday Sal and I had GREAT tickets to the Jazz vs. Lakers.  They were row 10 and face value was $230 of course we did not spend that on them but all the same I have not had that good of seats in a long time if ever.  We had dinner on China Platter in Bountiful on the way down and had a wonderful at the game.  We parked at the Gateway and actually did not get charged for parking so that was nice.  All in all had a great time with my lady on our date!

Friday Coop and I went to Clearfield  to meet a Jazz player.  It ended up being a former Jazz player, Thurl Bailey.  It was a little disappointing at first but he did do a good job with the kids.  We took about an hour.  Coop was not overly impressed but it was fun to do something different than just stay at home and watch TV.

I have been having issues shedding my winter weight.  I have been working out pretty good but my food intake has not been great.  I rode my bike trainer for an hour and forty five minutes on Saturday.  I will hit over two hours before I go for a long ride outside.  I have a 65 miler coming up in about 7 weeks.  It will be here before you know it.

We hung at Cosco and then did chores we later worked at Mom's school while wrapping up the night by watching the Reagan/s with an episode of Blue Bloods. 

We had a good ward conference today Sal got referenced in the Bishop's talk about how she did music in sharing time. Then a guy in the Stake Presidency spoke about pot holes on why we get them and how do we refrain from having them.  President Monson had a talk on this it was pretty good.
