Congrats to Leah!!

Last week we were all on a 7 day social media fast.  I will blog about that soon, but I need to pull my thought together about it first.  But we had some fun things happen.  Cora came down so that Leah could use her car to take her drivers test.  She drove down Monday night, but went straight to Maycie's house because Maycie had just opened her mission call.  (Going to Ft. Lauderdale, Florida) We all went to bed before Cora got here.  The next morning, Cora and I went for a walk, did some baking, and then picked up Leah from school.  We had her practice a little bit more, looked out for playground zones and then they took a break before the test to play on the playground.  My girls are such kids still.  I love it.

These two are always so happy to see each other.

Leah took her test and passed!!  I now have another errand runner around the house, and we have taken advantage already.

She has gotten herself to work and it has been lovely.  The one thing she did not want to do at all was be the person that took in the recycling.  Too bad Leah.  It is her job now.  The next day we ran into town early for Dr. appointments and groceries, then Cora headed back up to her house for a party.  She is still loving Edmonton, the YSA, and everything.  Has a great bunch of friends and working two jobs.  Cora got to see the National Canada and Scotland Rugby game this last weekend. Our local pool has opened up for the summer and Blake is loving it again.  Most nights he stay after school to swim for a few hours.

He has been offered a little job doing some yard work with a lady in our ward.  His first day was Saturday and he came home tired and thrilled with his first pay check.  Said he wants to buy some bacon so he can literally bring home the bacon.  We have been working on weeding our trees and getting the cages around them.  Every few days we find new ones that we thought had died.  The weather as been hot and dry, we need rain.
