DARE to Graduate

 Well, it's come. That time every 6th grader dreams of. DARE graduation. Our youngest has now officially finished. After a relatively brief and painless ceremony, we celebrated with some of her friends at Baskin Robbins.



 Caleb had Conference Finals for 8th grade track this week. It was fun to also get to see Ainsley run and hang out with my sister Kristi. Ainsley's relay team took first. Wahooo! Caleb ran the 800 and the mile and has plans to run all summer to increase his speed.



I stopped by Kory's work to wait for him to go to the meet with me, so I got a picture of him in his native habitat. 


Saturday we managed to squeeze a hike in in between rainstorms. We had a nice easy stroll up the Cress Creek trail and enjoyed the view. 

Later, we had Morgan spend the night and went on a little ride/walk with her. 

Today, everyone was excited to talk to Isaac, so we all hung around waiting for his call. Kory wanted to watch some golf, so everyone joined him in the bedroom.


 During the call, Caleb challenged Isaac to a push-up war, so here's Caleb.

And here is Isaac. Isaac won, btw.

This is everyone crowding around to say their last good-byes. We're so happy that he is happy serving the Lord for another year or so.

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...
