Family Home Evening

For family home evening us and Connie and her kids decided to go to Cedar Lanes and bowl. We all had a blast. We were able to play 5 games in just 2 hours. Katie and Ashley had fun seeing who was worse on their lane while Kylie did pretty good. On the other lane however Connie and Karen fought to see who was better. While Jacob wasn't the best in his lane he came pretty close to Katie, Kylie, and Ashley. Connie ended up beating everyone the whole night scoring in the hundreds. It was such a blast just spending time together and having some friendly competition. I think we all had so much fun we will probably do it again :]

Teeth, Teeth, Who's Got Grandma's Teeth?

We had to put this on here because it was hilarious. While we were camping we created our own version of Where's Waldo, but instead of looking for Waldo we were looking for teeth. Since grandma had a root canal the dentist told her she needed to only have her teeth in when she ate. So after she had a birthday lunch she took them out and thought she put them in the trailor, but then couldn't find them. She was so funny and tried to keep it from grandpa and we all searched the trailor (including the trash can) looking for them, but still couldn't find them. Grandpa then decided to go look in the big garbage that the whole camp uses. He just dug right in found his bag and looked for these teeth while grandma stayed at the camp by herself looking for them. After looking in the big trash we still couldn't find them so we just went back to our camp, and there grandma was with her teeth in hand. Thanks for the good laugh grandma, We're glad you found them :]

Happy Birthday Grandma

Happy 39th Birthday Grandma! She came home from camping for a dentist appointment so before she went back to the mountain we all took her out for breakfast. It was far too early for most of us since it was at 7:00 am, but it was worth it! That night we went to the mountain and brought a cake for her! We love you Grandma and hope your birthday was as great as you are!

Matt's Graduation

We got the privilage of watching Matt graduate. He has come a long way in the past year. It was a long and bumpy road, but it was all worth it. We always knew he could do it. He has an amazing future ahead of him. We want to tell you how much we love you and our so proud of you Skister Mattie :]

She Did It

After 12 long years of school she finally graduated. We are so proud of her. She first proved that you don't have to go to seminary all that often in order to graduate from all 4 years. Katie just happens to be the queen of seminary make up work :] With her graduating from seminary and actually finishing and passing online government it was our own little Christmas Miracle. We want to say thank you to everyone that came to seminary graduation (Grandma, Grandpa, Connie, and Melissa) It meant a lot. We couldn't invite everyone we wanted to for graduation because we only got 7 tickets, but thanks for coming Grandma, Grandpa, Grandma Bobbie, Robin, and Mattie Moo. Thank you Sue and Marilyn for the wonderful senior pictures.

Kylie's Graduation

Our little Kylie Jo finally graduated from elementary school. We were able to go to her graduation. Thanks for coming grandma and grandpa. We are so proud of you Kylie. Good Job we love you! Xavier here we come :]

Victory Is Ours!

Last night was the 5th ward young men/young women pine wood derby race. Grandpa helped Katie and Kylie make their cars and they kicked some butt. Katie got 1st place for the laurel group and Kylie got 2nd for the beehives(partially because the girl she raced against had an engine). I guess Grandpa's still got it. We had such a fun time and winning just made it better.
