Brian's 2nd track meet

Brian threw the discus 101' 11'' for his all time farthest throw. He took 1st place against Lowell Scott Middle School.

At the shot put he threw 29' 11 1/2'' and took 2nd place.

He has already qualified for Districts and it's only his 2nd meet of the season.

Happy Easter!

This year I decided to make the girls Easter skirts. This was a challenge since I've never made clothing before. Unfortunately I decided to wait until the last minute, so I only had about 1 week to complete them. (I even made a fourth one for one of the young women in our ward. ) No outfit is complete without a matching hair accessory, so I made 3 of those as well. Brian was the lucky recipient of a tie-not made by me, although I might have tried if I had had more time. All in all, I think they turned out wonderfully. I couldn't have done it without the constant help from my sister in law Sarah, so a big thank you to her!

(Caitlyn hiked up her skirt without me knowing, but it is supposed to be below the knee.)

Allie turns 11

It's hard to believe that my youngest is turning 11. It seems like just yesterday she started kindergarten, and now I'm teaching her how to shave her legs.

She chose lemon bars for her dessert

Home made gift by mom, a blanket, 2 pillow cases, and decorated letters.

Allie's been wanting a party for a few years now, so we pulled off a great surprise party for her with 3 of her friends.

She has been dying for a pinata so we got her one of those too.

We played a game with an egg, and Allie's team one.

a movie finalized the night.
