Finding Nemo/Big News

 We received news on Thursday that Joe is being transferred to the Weber area to teach Seminary. We are Very Excited to build on our land there. We are sad to leave this amazing place so close to so many awesome trails and so many great people. We will move this summer.



I will post a better link to the video when I get it. This will have to do for now. 


Marjorie and Heber performed Finding Nemo 4 times this week. Well Heber was too sick for Thursday's performance. Lucy and the Lady Dons won all 3 of their games this week. Mary's drumline that she manages took 1st place in a competition yesterday in Kaysville. Brigham had a great day selling one day and was the top guy in his group of 40. Marjorie is a STAR now and it is so fun to say I am Dory's mom. She was AMAZING in her role. Heber was awesome too and took it very seriously. 


Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Joe made yummy green deviled eggs.



It was so beautiful last Sunday (we have snow today), Frances and I went on a ride/walk. She rode 3 miles easy on her bike while I walked in boots. That was a poor choice. haha.

We had a fun YW/RS activity on Tuesday night. Lucy was at a game and doing her first interview with a newspaper. The Daily Herald, I will try to post the link.

Sarah, Mary, our cute neighbor Brooklyn Madsen (she has two darling kids that adore Sarah and Marjorie. Sarah has been babysitting for them quite a bit. Needless to say she cried when we told her we were moving.), and me.


I did Marjorie's hair 2 different days at the ballpark because Lucy played Tu/We/Th. 

So fun to watch. Hoping this season keeps going well!

Joe went and saw them on Wednesday night. I had a Seminary Sub training that I signed up for a long time ago. Now I might have to do something different in the Weber area. Oh well.


My friend and her husband crocheted so many sea creatures for decoration. It was AMAZING!!!


Mom and Gma made it down on Thursday to see Lucy play and then Marjorie perform. Sadly, this is when Heber was sick. Fran was super sick the couple days before this. We didn't get pics at the ballpark. UGH.




Flowers from Mom/Gma.

It was a BUSY, FULL, EXCITING, and EXHAUSTING week. Thankful for all the many blessings we enjoy. I had no idea how good Marjorie was at singing, dancing, acting. What a fun Surprise. She wasn't nervous either. Crazy!

Joe was in St. George watching Lucy play for the weekend. She pitched so well even though her body is not cooperating as well as she would like. She hit well too, I missed another home run during this party. 

Saturday morning, the rest of us headed to St. George. Sawyer and Elle, and Spencer came with us too. We went straight to Lucy's game, watched about 30 minutes of it and then went to Monte and Macey's wedding. It was really nice. We enjoyed seeing family and eating a yummy meal together before we drove home. 







Joe, Connon, Sherrie, James, Grannie, and Robert

We took this after Sarah left with Joe to go back to Lucy's games.

We had an enjoyable day and glad we didn't have bad traffic with all the driving. There were lots of fun places to take pictures. We missed Lucy and Brigham. So excited to have Macey in the family. Hopefully we will get some more pictures soon.
