August to December 1994

So the pages in my journals are starting to make the ink fade so I have decided that I would enter them on my blog as I print my  blog off as a book.

Alex loves her new primary teacher. We have just moved to Orangeville Utah. We are in the Orangville 1st ward. Alex will be starting kindergarten in two days and today she received a fathers blessing. In that blessing she was told she is a happy, smart girl. She was blessed with the ability to be patient, listen to her teacher and learn well the information she is taught. She was blessed with the ablilty to descern right from wrong and with courage to avoid doing things that were wrong.
   Alex loves her mommy, daddy, sister and brother. she enjoys the apartment she is living in. She has met a lot of new friends.  Mrs. Anderson is her teacher and she met her at back to school night last week. Alex is going to like her a lot. She is very nice. The apartment we live in has a neat back yard. I have a blanket that I love very much. I sleep with it and snuggle it frequently throughout the day. I love my dad.

It snowed today. I love my brother and sister. I like to sleep over at Grandma and Grandpa's house. I slept at Grandma and Grandpa's while mom and dad went to the temple.
             I like Kindergarten and get to do homework each day. I'm learning to write letters and words. I like my mommy and daddy. I feel sick sometimes-like today. I like to be happy. Having good friends makes me happy.  I like to go to weddings. I'm glad to have a new grandpa named Reed Spjut. Grandma Kay loves reed and married him in the temple. I  like to jump on Reed's trampoline. I am looking forward to being baptized.

I like to play outside on the playground. i love my  blankie. I feel happy when I do the right things. I feel sad when I don't have friends to play with. I spoken in sacrament meeting a couple of weeks ago. I love kindergarten. I love going to visit Bok and Fran in Price. This past week I was a witch for Halloween. We went trick-or-treating with our neighbors, the Tuttles. Then we went to the carnival at the school.

I got to be an angel in the Christmas program last night at our ward Christmas party. I love my blanky, I sleep with it every night. I also like to with with a bowl beside me because sometimes I think that I might throw-up. I  also like my little mermaid sleeping bag. I love my Kindergarten teacher Mrs. Anderson. She makes thins for us and teaches us how to make them. This week we spent the night at Grandma Fran and Grandpa Bok's house even though they are in Spain picking up Paul from his mission. We had to clean the house to make sure it looked nice when Paul got home. We are going to make a big banner and balloons to welcome Paul home. We will just change the name on the banner for later this month with Mark get's home.

(little side note here: When we were younger we would call my Grandpa Bill  Bok.)
