This week was rather uneventful, a whole lot of work, eat, sleep, and and not much between. On Saturday we went to the Mesa Highland Games, where we hung out and listened to some bagpipes. We had a good time, the only drawback was the nasty sunburn I got on my face, it was so nice and cool out I didn't realize I was cooking myself. All in all it was good clean fun. Afterwords we went to Kristen's favorite restaurant and ate some lunner.

From Cafe Rio we went to track down Larkin, we found him at Sauce in Mesa working. I sure do miss having that kid around. We were able to talk to him for a few minutes and then headed off to Ikea to find a small table for our entryway. Upon arriving at Ikea we decided to take a quick nap in the car. We slept for about 20 minutes and went in to the store. Unfortunately we left Ikea empty-handed and left the weighty task of finding a table for another day. By this time we needed to hurry to the Temple to meet some friends. After the Temple we went out to eat and headed home.

Today (Sunday), I got called to teach primary with my lovely wife, it will be fun to work along side her. I also had the privilege of attending Scott Mayberry's ordination. it was so nice to be there for that. After church we had Uncle Ralph, Aunt Marti, and Steve over for dinner. It was a lovely afternoon. It makes me wish for an Elrey family compound. So, that was my week.

I'm still toying with content on this thing, so let me know what the heck you want me to write about. I'm sorry if I bored you.

Sambo and K.K. (Kristen, heads up, that's my new name for you. You like or no?) I'm sorry about the IKEA fiasco, wherein a new entryway table was not purchased. Hopefully you will have better luck next time.

I am one of your biggest fans, by the way.

Brent, you have to call Kristen Special K! I've been calling them FatSam & Special K, but I don't think Sam is fat, so we should compromise and call them Sambo and Special K. Whether they like it or not.
