My birthday

 

Spencer imitating the Rock. We had a family dinner together today since Lucy leaves Wednesday. 

We had a good week. I got to go to dinner with Joe on Friday, we went to Tony's Pizza. We all watched the wild robot together. Saturday I got to go to lunch and the temple with Lucy, Shan and Mom. We had a great time and yummy food at zupa's. Then last night Shawnette picked me up and took me to Hug Hess for a delicious dinner of salmon and portabella chicken. 

I'm so thankful for my life and all the wonderful people in it. 

President's Day

 

Fun having Brigham and Madi join us. They will be married in 2 weeks!!!! AHHH! Oh and their bridals are so so BEAUTIFUL!!!

My work invited all of us to come to the Environmental Center yesterday and use the cross country skiing stuff, sled, have hot chocolate and cookies. We rounded up enough gear (took 2 hours) and got ourselves up there somehow. We had a good time, a few tears and enjoyed being in the beautiful mountains. 

Spanish Fork Farewell/Sister Evans!

 

Pres. Benson gave her a beautiful blessing with lots of promises. 

My Mom is so supportive and helpful. I am so thankful for her help with everything. Her eyes bother her so much but we are SO THANKFUL she can still see and still do so much. She is the best.

We finally got to give Tony his painting.

Telling Kam bye was pretty difficult on both of them.

Jordan and the whole Brown family are such great friends. I am so thankful for them. They offered their home and let us feed our family and friends before sending them back on their way.

Liv and Lucy

Lots of family and softball friends came. Some BYU friends came too.

Not great pictures, but Emma Gundersen from Texas is on the right. She is going to Norway where a lot of her family is from. So special to have her there. She and Lucy were the best of friends from 2-11. 

My mom made lots of cookies for us too. Joe made incredible pork, beans, and corn. It was yummy!

4 of  Lucy's High School coaches came, it was so fun having them there. I should have got a picture of all of them. Nat is talking to Liv. All of the Stake Presidency was there too, and the ward was so fun to see. Lucy did amazing. She will be a wonderful missionary. We are so happy for her. Frannie and Heber stayed home sick. My mom stayed with them. We have seriously used her for 9 days straight. Ahh.

Valentine's Day

 

On Saturday I took Marjorie to the temple without an appointment. We were confirmed for a few sisters and witnessed for a few. I wasn't feeling super great but thankful I was able to go. It was short and sweet and nice to be there.

We got snow all weekend. So much "stuff". 

We chopped several inches off of Marjorie, it is so cute!

Joe brought be flowers, chocolates and a cute sweater the day after Valentine's. I told him he wasn't allowed to pay full price. haha.

The kids enjoyed their Valentine parties at school. It was such a weird week. I am so glad I am feeling better.

I am so thankful for Joe. I love him very much.
