Late last night (here at least) little Samson was born. What a beautiful little boy! 7lbs and 4 oz. One of the great joys in our life is the happiness Joe and Hannah have found. And now to have a little boy to add to their family is an amazing blessing.
We have studied and shopped and have walked in the rain to the Bon ice cream and yogurt shop today. It is dark here by 7:00 pm so we aren't supposed to be out walking in the streets. Of course that doesn't bother Scott though. The sidewalk to the Bon shop is covered with vendors selling all kinds of things to eat and jewelry galore. Hot dogs on a stick were interesting. They must sell well because he had about forty on his grill cooking and already cooked. There is a college that's walkway into and out of the school is part of that sidewalk so they must have alot of hungry college students. The Bon shop was filled with college kids.
We are anxious for conference tomorrow. On lds.org it lists about five different Internet sites that you can get the broadcast live at. We cancelled our lessons for Saturday and Sunday so that is kind of nice. I have always thought that if we were to keep the Sabbath day holy we should have the meetings on television - thus eliminating the frustration of being ready to murder the kids by the time you get them ready, in the car for church, and drive to the church. I can look back now with fondness at many of those memories but at the time they weren't so great. I still don't know how shoes and socks can magically disappear on Sunday mornings.
