February

Ok I can't believe its been a month already. I've been too busy to blog.

Blake went back to Wisconsin two weeks ago for training and had alot of fun but froze. (you know its cold if Blake freezes.) Blake's Hockey team is in the playoffs and are doing great. (Blake is 98 and my Brother -In- Law Ian is the goalie.)



Charles has been reffing hockey games and playing hockey still. He is an amazing player and looking forward to playing this summer with the High School.



Carrie's Jr High Basketball team starts playoffs Monday. She just finished Jr Jazz and had her last church Basketball game Friday night it was regional. They lost but Carrie did have a sweet 3 pointer. (She won her last game before that with a 3 pointer right at the end, so this time the coach kept on her to get another) Its very exciting for mom to have the Basketball season slowing down.

We had our Nephew Landon stay with us this weekend, it was fun. We picked him up Friday and went to Carrie's BBall game then had a primary activity on Saturday morning, We got Mary (Kylie's friend) to go with us, then went to pick Charles up from reffing (all morning) and had lunch and played in the park till his hockey game later that day. It was alot of fun but very cold. At Charles Hockey game Grandma Vada, Grandma Evans and Holly came to watch too. After we went to Kyle and Scott's house and Scott let the kids ride his little motorcycle. Today I did sharing time for primary and now Im looking forward to starting another week of excitement and running around again.

Jazz

Last Tuesday Night Carrie and I went to the Jazz game. We had eighth row seats and were sitting left of the basket so it was pretty cool to see the players close up. It was a whole different game that close. Thanks Brenda, Carrie thought that was better than Christmas.










This week we have Jr Jazz tickets and will be on the ceiling this time, but still look forward to it.

Carrie made Eisenhower's Basketball team this week. We are soo proud of her! She was one of 5 seventh graders that made it.

Weekend

Charles, Carrie and I went to Jordan River Temple on Friday. It was their first time doing baptisms for the dead and they thought it was awesome! So we stayed and they did more. Then I took them to lunch in the cafeteria. Brenda watched the little ones, which they always love since they got to play with Taryn. Thank you!

Saturday Carrie had two basketball games (Jr Jazz and Church ball) and won both. Charles and Blake both had a Hockey game and Charles also reffed three hockey games that night. It was a fun but busy day.

Happy New Year!

We stayed home this year on New Years eve and had a lot of fun playing games, eating and making a mess of the family room.

Happy New Year!

The Tree

We finally decorated the tree tonight. Which I can't believe I haven't got to yet. Things are soo busy lately. Saturday Carrie had a basketball game, Blake reffed hockey and Charles and Blake both had hockey games so we were again running around. But anyway the lights are on and the kids enjoyed putting on the decorations.


The kids had fun taking turns with holding the lights for dad.
