The Starry-Eyed Puppet Show, etc.
by Mike on Jun.25, 2008, under General, Kidz, Married Life
The kids are having a great summer, my job is doing well, and Johanna doesn’t feel super-sick all day anymore (though mornings and evenings are still a little rough.) All in all things seems to be turning out pretty well. We have two semi-new couches we got from Johanna’s sister Amanda for free-95, and yesterday Johanna actually rearranged the front room (or is it a family room, or a living room?) and it looks really nice.
Last night we went to see State Fair at the Sugar Factory Playhouse, and it was a pretty good show. Some of my old friends there haven’t seen me since I was a single, not-even-anyone-on-the-horizon sort of guy. Finding out that baby Dodge is on the way was a real shocker.
But even with all this great news, the most memorable part of the recent week was when we decided to take the kids to a free puppet show at the West Jordana library for Family Home Evening. It was the Starry-Eyed Puppet Show, and it was really something else. What made it so great? Well, let me tell you…
Demoted…

It’s finally happened. For the past two nights, I have been demoted to sleeping on the couch. Who thought that only 3 months into marriage, I would find myself in this position. What did I do to deserve this kind of treatment (and believe you me, I deserve it?) Well, I will tell you. I told Johanna that we could keep her Double/Full bed instead of my Queen.
Scripture Stories
by Mike on Apr.21, 2008, under General, Kidz, Married Life
As a family, we are reading the scripture stories from the church web site, the ones that used to be found in the old “Book of Mormon Reader” that we all remember so well from childhood. For the longest time, I was sure that none of this was sinking in with the kids. Boy, was I wrong.
