Everything Else!

These are a whole bunch of pictures from my phone that show what we have been up to in February and part of March!  
Jace looked like such a stud for his Valentine's day Manners party.  What a cutie!
We had a group date with the bishopric in our ward.  Jared Smith made us his famous pizzas, and we ate and laughed for hours!  Fun night with friends!
Jace is quite the artist!  Here is some of his work!  



We played a fun game of Life with the YM/YW one night!  I sure love this group of kids!
It was dress up like someone you admire for school one day, and this is what we got:  Sophie was her teacher, Mrs Cheever.  Bella was me - sweatshirt, jeans and pony tail :).

Thomas was Nick Emery from BYU basketball team; Jace was Josh - basketball shorts, and sweatshirt (his work out attire) :)

This was one of BYU's last home games.  We were going to go on a date and go with mom and dad and Danielle and Dave.  Then our friends offered us 5 tickets.  We ended up bringing the kids and letting them sit up in the 5 high seats (we could kind of see them from where we were) and it was so fun!  Josh and I sat and played with Sawyer, and had a fun time watching the game.  Then the last 10 minutes our kids came down and sat by us too.  :)  So fun!

Half time wrestling!







I had to snap a pic of the cute beehives I spent the Sunday with!  
I love when I see art work of our kids - you can tell what we've been talking about at FHE - The Plan of Salvation.  Here's Jace's interpretation of spirit prison and spirit paradise.  :)
Our Anniversary!  12 years!  We went to the Payson temple, out to lunch and then took our kids up to Grammie's for the night.  We stayed at our house with no kids and slept in!  Then we were off to more basketball games and fun!  We gave each other roller blades for our anniversary.  
We had to try them out!  :)  So fun!

Then we took our kids for a ride too!
Saturday night curlers!
My kids are loving their new music these days!  We hear a lot of Hello mixed with Hedwig's theme everyday!  Star Wars will make it's appearance sometime too!  
Bella's friend Taylor was baptized.  I just love that we have all these little girls in our neighborhood!  They are the cutest little friends!  I hope they can be great examples for each other forever!

Jace and Bryson are cute friends too!  We are so excited for summer!!!  And more friend time!

More of Jace's work!

 We went to see Amy's artwork at the HFAC on Campus last week!  We love Amy and are so impressed with her talent!
 The favorite exhibit was the flashlight one.  Sawyer thought it was the best!

 We'll end this epic update with a Sunday best picture of my crew!  Kaley, Bella, Jace and Sophie ALL gave talks on Sunday!  Our topic was "Prophets speak for Heavenly Father."  We had a lovely Sunday morning preparing their talks!  It was a great Sunday activity!  I am struggling to come up with reverent, useful things to do Sunday mornings since our church isn't until 1.  Maybe we should just give talks every week!  ;)

Swim Day!

We had no school one day, so we made a big day out of it!  We went swimming, ate lunch with Pops at his work, and then shopped with Drew and Em!  Fun day!
















No school days make me SO excited for Summer!!!  Let the planning begin!

Jace Basketball

Jace played Little Hoopsters this year.  He had a lot of fun!  He may not be the tallest kid out there, but he sure has heart!  





 He surprised me by really getting into defense this year!  











 Just take a minute to appreciate the adorableness of this picture.  He tries so hard!  








Jace was so happy to have Grammie and Pops come watch his last game.  Danielle was there too :)
