We didn't really do much on Day 4. Most everyone was off celebrating their Easter, and since Dad was asleep because he had to work, and we could not travel out of town to see family because it was our turn to clean the church we decided to just have fun at home on the tramp, play some fun board games, and watch some movies in the front room, and do a picnic. The kids had fun but wish they could have gone to Southern Utah to see their cousins.
We were the only family to show up out of 6 families assigned to clean the church. The kids and I felt a bit overwhelmed at first, but had a great time doing a service the day before Easter, and the kids felt very proud to have been the ones to clean the building for Easter Sunday.
Getting geared up to do some cleaning. They each chose a job, and they did it well. As we were just about done with the church (all we had left to do is to clean the boys bath room, and then mop the bathroom floors and kitchen floor, one of the families that were supposed to help out showed up to play basketball and asked if they were supposed to be there cleaning. I told them I believed they were and so they helped us finish up the yucky parts and then we headed home. I sure was proud of my kids for not complaining at all that we were stuck doing it alone. I sure do have good kids!!!
