Primary Program & Carving Pumpkins

I don't have any pictures of the girls before their primary program, but I just wanted to mention it. They did such a great job! They both memorized their parts and got up to the pulpit like champs and said their lines. Whitney, by nature, is very dramatic. She has been carrying around this invitation to our ward party (which was about a month ago) in one of her purses. She has it rolled up and when they are playing "primary", she rolls it out very seriously and says that it is her talk. Well, she brought it with her to church yesterday - she kept telling us it was her lines for her part in the program - so when she got up to the pulpit you could see her pull out the paper, unroll it very seriously and slowly and then proceed to say her lines while looking at the paper like she was reading it. It was so funny. And Gracie wanted to bring a talk also, so she brought a Halloween window cling and had that for her talk. They are so funny. I called my friend last night, who is the Primary President, she is the one who helped the kids with their parts and she said it was hard for her to not laugh when she saw Whit's paper and she was very glad she didn't take Grace's window cling - she didn't realize it was her talk - duh!





Anyhow, Caren and Neil came up for the program and we had a very nice visit. We went and got pumpkins for the girls and Caren helped the girls carve them after church yesterday. We lit them for a little while in the house last night because if we leave them out on the porch our dogs will eat them.
