So…we got a call at 5:30 am on February 12th from our school district (automated, of course).  School was being cancelled because it MIGHT snow .  It would have been funny at the time if it hadn’t been so early and we didn’t already have 2 kids up getting ready for early morning Seminary. So, [...]

Every year our (church) Young Women’s group has a “New Beginnings” program where we get reminded what the program is all about, why it is important, why we should be setting goals and encouraging the girls to set goals and accomplish them.  I didn’t get that many photos because I was running around trying to [...]

It finally happened…PJ became a “brace face” just like Liz .  He was sooo excited to finally get them (even though Liz had told him how bad they can be)…until they started hurting during school later that day and he couldn’t eat lunch.  He is getting used to it now though.

Megan is our resident “smarty.” She is on her high school Academic Team and travels around to competitions. I went with them to a recent Saturday outing and took a few pictures…

Liz played on a recreational (indoor) soccer league team this winter and had a lot of fun.  Her friends were on the team and one of her friends’ dad was the coach.
