Spring

Dallin has been running track.  He placed second in the 3200 at this meet. He has progressively gotten better.

The boys played a long game of Axis and Allies.

I had surgery.  I am recovering well.  Hopefully I will be back even better in the next few weeks.

Evan had a Birthday.  He wanted another Volcano cake.  

He wanted his presents in the morning of his Birthday.

They had a gel blaster gun fight for his Birthday.  He had a great time.

Aaron and Leah and I had a night to ourselves.  We had a picnic in the living room and watched a movie. 

Evan competed in State Robotics tournaments.  He had a great season.

Dallin got second in the 1600 on this track meet. 

Joshua and Dallin went to Disney and Universal for Spring break with the band.  They had a great time!

They liked Universal better than Disney.  I am glad they had an opportunity to do that.  

 

February

Leah had a Birthday!  She had a gel blaster party. 

The girls all had a great time.

It worked out great after a week of ice storm to have a nice day. 

Evan had trouble seeing again so we brought him back in for new glasses.

Dallin, Jenny, Kira and I all ran a 5k.  Dallin took 3rd in his age group

Aaron worked on his Valentines.

This was his tank he made for his Valentines.

Dallin has his first track meet.  He ended up taking 3rd in the 3200.

The boys  playing Axis and Allies.

Us after the race.

 

January

Another trip to Six Flags.

The kids had a great time!

Leah said goodbye to primary.  We made pizza and had a good send off with my activity kids.

We ran a race.

I didn't run as fast as I wanted to but we all had a good time.

Leah placed in her age group.

The older boys marched in the MLK parade.  Evan and Aaron loaded up on candy.

Fort building in the living room.

Hanging with the Clarks is always a good time.

Joshua has been working really hard in robotics. The team was invited to the US championships in Iowa this year.  He really wants to go.  We will see what we can do to make it happen.

Evan ran the race too.  He did great!  Dallin ran a PR as well.  I love watching my kids grow and learn.

 

End of 2022

 

We had a great Christmas.  Leah practicing with her Dribbleup

Gelblaster games all the time

We probably have them weekly now.  

Leah got a big net catch all the stay soccer balls.

We had a great Christmas.

We had the whole family over and the missionaries taught a lesson.

We played lots of games.

We made and handed out treats.

We had a party over for Relief Society as well.  It was a busy but great December

First half of December

We had our Ward Christmas party.  They did the Nativity.

Evan competed in robotics.  They did amazing!

They won the Excellence award which qualifies them for State! They were so happy!

Evan also had his choir concert.  The boys had their band concert.  They all did amazing.  I love watching them show off their talents.

We clean the church every Saturday and Santa showed up.

Of course my kids told Santa things that I have never heard.  lol

Even Leah talked to Santa.

Michael took his turn too!

We also had my work party.  The kids love playing and visiting the animals before the party.
