Our busy week

We did our usual Sunday at the park. The weather is finally beautiful and not too hot so we try to ride our bikes to the park each week. Emily and I bribed Hailee with $10.00 if she would do her roundoff back handspring on the grass. (she is used to doing it at the gym with mats.) We were so excited to see her do it. Hopefully this experience gave her more self confidence. If so, it was worth $10.00. We also fed the ducks and just messed around. I love times like this when there is no pressure or meetings to go to.



Hailee is a budding photographer. She took this picture of Me and Blake and did pretty good.



I thought the goose would chase the girls away but to my surprise, it didn't . The girls were acting like they have never done this before. I'll admit, it has been a while since we have been to Barnes park to feed the ducks, but, it wasn't the first time.













Blake brought home the new Indiana Jones movie for the family to watch together. As you can imagine, it was too scary for Sydni. We put a movie on for her in our room to watch. After we were finished watching Indiana Jones, this is where we found Sydni. It was so cute but kind of sad too.
Blake and I made the trek down to Fort Worth for the BYU game. It was most definately a sad night for Blake. He was not happy about the game as I'm sure many of you felt the same way.
I had to show you that Provo is not the only place to find CRAZY BYU fans. The guy with the painted helmet head was priceless


Notice Blake's happy smiling face! He told me to remind him to NEVER do that again! There were a lot of BYU fans there.

Conference Weekend


I love conference weeked for many reasons. I think this is the first year that all of my girls listened and tried to pay attention. Who ever invented the "conference packet" is a genius! My kids had fun answering questions from the packet and playing the games. This picture of them is really what they were doing, I didn't have them pose for this.
It was really nice to be able to sit and listen as a family to our prophet and apostles. We had a great time and we look forward to April when we can do it again.
