Dave and I took Brig to NYC for a 12 year old celebration. We had a great time. We stayed at Dave's aunt's amazing pent house on Park Avenue blocks from Central Park. We became subway experts as we explored the city. We took the Statten Island ferry for a view of the Statue of Liberty, enjoyed a great afternoon at a Yankees game, ate pasta in Little Italy, saw Newsies on broadway and visited ground zero. It was so fun to have some one on one time with Brig, he is such an amazing person.
My Beautiful Olivia Kate! Starting second grade this year. She lost two teeth in one day, that has to be a record. I am going to miss her when she goes back to school Tuesday. She is so much fun to have around.
Another Spring Break Adventure-Ears Pierced at Claires! Olivia had hers pierced over President's Day weekend in St. George but one ear grew back. So.. . we went back with Claire and did it again.
Our family visited the amazing city creek and got to meet the even more AMAZING Stephanie Nielson and her husband and have our book signed. We were so inspired by her bright, loving words in person and in her book. It is a must read!
We had the best Spring Break. We went to a giant trampoline gym, swam, hiked all over the mountains, swam, rode bikes, swam, ate, swam. Our favorite adventure was our hike to red cliffs with the Mickelsons! The boys were crazy and brave to go down the natural waterslide in the FREEZING run off water.
We went to St. George for Spring Break. We loved listening to conference as we drove down. Dave was in South Africa so I was a single mom for a couple of weeks. Lying by the pool gazing at beautiful Snow Canyon definitely helped pass the time. We picked up Dave in scummy Las Vegas and dropped off Sam on his first solo flight to visit his best friend Carter in Orlando. We are so grateful for the Atonement and Resurrection and all the blessings of the gospel and loving family!
