When I've Grown a Foot or Two

It's January, so that means it's time to get out the measuring board and see how everyone has grown. Andy made her debut on the board and she didn't like holding still to get measured. 

Morgan, Chloe, and Caleb have all been growing like weeds, but Caleb was the winner at 4 inches. No wonder his pants are always too short!





As a b-day present we offered to pay for a photo sitting for Ryker. More like a photo-anything-but-sitting. The best shots were taken in the first ten seconds but the further he got into it, the less he wanted to cooperate.

Had to get a little shot of Phoebe dressed up as a cowgirl for the Skyline/Blackfoot game.

Kory had some meetings in Rexburg this past week, so I got to spend some extra time with him, hanging in the Crossroads and my office. He decided to take a little catnap on my beanbag. We went to the Lindsey Stirling concert, which was great, but we were on the third row and the bass was so loud we lost a little bit of our hearing.


Saturday we partied! We went to Lava Hot Springs in the morning and soaked for about an hour. Then, that afternoon we went to the movie Darkest Hour about World War II and then we used a gift certificate we had for Cafe Sabor and had dinner. It was a nice relaxing weekend.

We did a little shopping at Winco. When I got inside I realized Kory wasn't with me, so I looked back outside and saw that he had stopped to help a handicapped man with his groceries. I went back inside to wait because it was freezing. It seemed like it was taking him a long time to come in, when all of the sudden the doors opened, and here came Kory riding on his little doo-hickey. It was the funniest sight and caught me off guard so I was laughing pretty hard. He always makes me laugh.

April 2023

  April 2023 On April 1 and 2 we chilled and watched General Conference. On the first, we got a new cat to replace Todd. This cat’s name is Taco, she is a girl, and she’s a tortoiseshell calico. She and Binx have taken quite a while to warm up to each other, but I think we’ll get there. She is cuddly like Todd, so we all like that.  On April 4 I watched Season 3 of The Mandalorian with my dad. On the 5 th , Kory and I took Austin and Leah to the Bee’s Knees for a birthday dinner. They have really great food there and it was fun to visit.  On April 6, we had BYUI Graduation. It was fun to be there, since I’ve missed the past year due to my cancer. On the 7 th , Kory, me, and Caleb babysat for Austin and Leah. It was fun putting the kids to bed and singing with them. Stevie loves the song “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,” so we sang that a bunch. On April 8, Kory and I went on a little date. We drove up to Driggs and had dinner at O’ Rourkes and then stopped and visited with m...

Pie Face

Chloe had her tenth birthday and she asked for the game Pie Face. Yep, you've seen it. The one where everyone takes turns getting whipped cream in the face. Here are some precious moments. Chloe also got a little fort-making kit for her birthday, so we've had these structures in the family room for a few weeks now.

January/February 2023

  January 2023 On January 3 we helped Caleb move back into his apartment on campus and took Phoebe to Fuji for her birthday dinner. On the 7 th , we went to Austin and Leah’s and had some delicious Olive Garden takeout and watched some of Matilda the Musical. On January 12, we went through the Rexburg temple with my niece Maddie. On January 14 th , I went to a baby shower for my niece Kami. She is the first grandchild to have a baby, so this will be my parents first great-grandchild. On the 27 th , we had a new addition to our household. That afternoon, Phoebe asked me if there was any way we could consider getting another cat. Her friend had to move and wouldn’t be able to take the cat to the new location. For some reason, I agreed, and she picked him up that afternoon. He’s an orange cat, and was originally named Scar, but our girls named him Todd after the Fox and the Hound . Binx was NOT happy at the new family member. He hissed and growled at Todd, who didn’t seem overly c...
