August 25

Got up early to make Abby's famous chocolate cake.  Had it done, and breakfast on in plenty of time to get to church by 10 o'clock.

Because we had a fireside at 2:00 p.m. we just snacked it for lunch.  It was a songfest for the Relief Society sisters.  I went because they asked me to judge the groups.  It was organized like this.  There were five groups of sisters and each group had to sing five numbers: a solo, a duet, a trio, a quartet, and a choir number.  In between each group on of the groups bore testimony. After we got started I told Sister Suliana that it did not seem appropriate to judge after testimonies, so I sat through almost two hours of singing alone.  No one else wanted to come with me.

When I got home, I mixed up the meatloaf and but it along with the potatoes in the oven and turned it on.  About 15 minutes after I had turned it one, the oven exploded and there was fire in the back.  I turned off the oven--duh, it had turned itself off--and pulled all the food out. Thankfully we could cook the food in the institute.  Scott took everyone except Ammon--who was having a small melt down--to the institute and then for a ride.  Ammon and I spent the hour talking and playing games on my I-pad. It was lovely for me to have that time alone with him. He is such a nice boy, and very talkative when he is one on one.

Ate.  Did dishes.  Watched Chaya and Rex pack.  Went to bed.
