We drove to Lehi to do Bikram together and had a great class. During the week I have to leave early to get home in time, but Saturday is nice because I can stay the whole time. This was Ethline&#8217;s first time doing Bikram, and she loved it.<\/p>\n<p>When I got home, I took over the kids. Abe had been up until 1am working, so he was exhausted. When he woke up, I started feeling tired. Abe let me nap for a couple hours. I was so tired that I didn&#8217;t even wake up during the treasure hunt Lydia made for all of the kids. One of her clues was, &#8220;To find your next clue, check the place where you go poo!&#8221; &#8230;That was in our bathroom. They all trooped into the bathroom to find her clue, and I was so zonked I didn&#8217;t hear a thing. Her hunt ended at a box which held a lot of rainbow themed things, including a book she had made about the colors of the rainbow and this cut-out rainbow:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-16099\" src=\"http:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_0373-e1535297777718-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_0373-e1535297777718-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_0373-e1535297777718-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_0373-e1535297777718-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_0373-e1535297777718.jpg 1632w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Then when I finally woke up, I menu planned, did the Clicklist, and &#8220;helped&#8221; Abe organize the girls&#8217; clothes. We switched out all of their old clothes and put their school uniforms in. We also organized Ammon&#8217;s clothes. The Marshalls gave us all of their twins&#8217; old clothes, and if we want, we don&#8217;t even have to buy Ammon anything this season!<\/p>\n<p>In the evening after the kids were down, Abe and I spent an hour in the backyard enjoying the perfect weather and cloud watching. I felt perfectly happy and full of gratitude for everything in my life, even things which annoy me when I am in a bad mood&#8211;like the house, for instance. I looked at the house with Abe and felt so grateful God has given me a perfect place to raise a family.<\/p>\n<p>Then Abe and I went in and binge watched\u00a0<em>The Good Wife<\/em>. Normally Abe is much more disciplined, but he let himself channel my over-indulgent tendencies and we watched until midnight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Saturday I woke up at 5:15am to pick up our neighbor, Ethline, for yoga.
