Very Grateful

Sometimes the world makes things harder then it really needs to be and then the Lord comes in and makes it sooooo simple..
Our plumbing has not been the business. Our kitchen sink has been on the NO WORKING side of things and so to do dishes we went old school we had to fill up 2 big bowls and one was for washing and you guessed it one was for rinsing. When all was done the boys carried the bowls out and dumped the water on the side of the house I know not very sanitary, but it was just dirty water.. We've been going this way for so long I don't even remember how long, it just seemed second nature to do things this way. Of course there was a lot of complaining about who's turn it was to take the bowls and of course I would just yell someones name out and they had to take it out..
We have been calling around for a long time to get quotes, and trust me we get some extra money (which really never happens) and we try and call then someone gives a number so HIGH that only in our dreams can we afford that, and the getting of the quotes is done for that moment..
The light at the end of the tunnel:
One of our ward members heard about our dilemma with our plumbing and showed up yesterday with the blessing of the bishopric and fixed it.. Yes you heard me right.. FIXED it.. I don't know who was more excited me for having fixed plumbing or the boys for NOT having to take out the big bowls of water. I am indeed grateful for our ward, for filling a need that we were unable to fill.. I'm grateful for the church and for all it has done for me and my family.. I just want to thank Tohi Similai for coming to the rescue you have NO idea all you have done for us.. You are the best..

UEA weekend is upon us, but we had some rough patches in the short 3 day week of school.. Monday 10/11/10 started normal, David had film at the high school @ 6am and then the day started from there Kids to Entheos by 8am, and then a day with the 2 babies eating, cooking, cleaning, taking long naps (not sure if I should admit that lol) then time to pick up kids drop Amone off at the high school for football practice and then home, short break and then time to take Sione to football practice while there David had hit wrong at football practice and had a sharp pain in his neck, and then finally football was over and we went home.. Finally meaning around 830pm.. Tuesday everything was good, Mone had a sophomore game against Copper hills High School at the end of the 2nd quarter Mone goes back to return the punt and catches it, next thing he know someone has his ankles and another player hits him with his helmet right on his knees, Mone is down and cant get up.. To the ER we go everything is ok but it will swell up and he will be in pain and out for some time..
Wednesday David plays varsity against the same school and of course he gets that same pain up his shoulder straight to his neck, so he leaves the game 3rd quarter..
Thursday they are both off the Ana Alusa to massage both of them they are know in the healing process and should heal fine, nothing is broken just some over worked nerves and some shifted muscles..
Friday, we are all cleaning or should I say the kids are... hahaha..
Happy UEA Utah kids, time to get ready for Saturday Siones game vs Cottonwood.. Go get em cougars..

Monday practice David, Mone, Sione Tuesday practice David, Mone and Sione Wednesday practice David and Mone Thursday practice Sione, sophomore game Mone, Friday varsity game David and Saturday Game Sione.. Sunday is a day of church and resting and spending time with family... I'm grateful for my beautiful family and all the blessings we have been blessed with..

I'm also grateful for 6 children who are willing to receive their blessings and work hard to develop them..
