Election 2016

I waited in line for about 30 minutes at the courthouse today to vote. I feel good about my choices and I'm happy for the right and privilege of this duty.  

I spent a little while looking up red, white, and blue dinner ideas early this morning. The options were not super appealing and I almost settled for green slime jello and crooked noodle pasta to represent the two leading party candidates, but instead made tomato soup and grilled cheese on sourdough and some fun red, white, and blue jello cups.  The tiny voters were pleased. The kids' school held an election of their own. Hillary won. Corbin voted for trump and Quinxy voted for Gary Johnson then claimed "I didn't know he used marijuana when I voted for him. They should have put that information on the ballot!" Oh Quincy. If our candidates had all the "bad stuff" about them printed on the ballots there would be no paper left in America.  This election has nearly broken the Internet with discussion of bad histories, and space on the web is infinite! Hahaha
We held a family council to discuss some family current events, plan a temple trip, discuss Christmas and birthday wishes, discuss politics, and end with a spiritual message.
