King of Kings

Andrea had tickets to King of Kings that they weren't going to use. She text last minute and asked if we wanted them. I was at James's game but it worked out for Marshall to take Tag, Kade, and friends. They said it was really good! It is produced by Angel Studios.

After James's game, Sienna went with me to Macey's. She sat in here for a second to see if she could still fit.

Monthly Family Dinner

We went to Heber on conference Sunday. We watched the last session in Heber and then had turkey dinner. My mom had a frozen turkey that needed cooked. Marshall cooked the turkey and we took it to Heber for family dinner. It was a nice family dinner and fun to see everyone!

This cardboard surrounded the vanity my parents bought for the bathroom at the rental house across the street. The cardboard looked like it was made to be a fort. They had fun playing bakery and everyone bought snacks from them with pretend money.

Lynnlee's Permit

We got back from Brian Head early Friday afternoon. She had an appointment to get her permit at 4:10 that afternoon. I'm so happy our appointment wasn't any later because they don't let you take the test after 4:30 because there isn't enough time before closing time. I'm always paranoid about not having the right documents so I always over prepare. I took her birth certificate, passport, social security card, and utility bill for proof of address. It took her two tries to pass the test but hey, at least she did it by her 2nd try. Otherwise we would have had to go back another time.

She and her friends painted these cute fingerprint paintings. Each of them did a finger print on each of their canvases. 


Spring Break

Spring break exceeded my expectations. I expected slushy and warm spring skiing. Instead it felt like Christmas Break. It snowed everyday. We skied in and out from the condo to the resort. It was an amazing week of skiing. Other bonuses were sleeping in everyday because the resort didn't open until 10:00. We enjoyed dinner and family time after and still got to bed at a decent time. I actually got more than 8 hours of sleep every night and it felt wonderful. 

We left Monday after lunch to drive to Brian Head. It was a lazy morning.

We got there at dinner time and met Cam's family at the pizza place at Brian Head. I had a yummy salad and everyone else had pizza and said it was really good. I haven't minded eating gluten free because most of the time I can find a good alternative. James and Wes were buddies. 
The condo 
The condo had a small kitchen, a loft, 3 bathrooms, and 3 bedrooms. It slept up to 12. There was a clubhouse with a large hot tub. For meals, we took turns preparing breakfast and dinner with Cam's family. I planned waffles with strawberries and cream, coffee cake, spaghetti and chili in bread bowls. We ate well!
We got on the slopes at opening Tuesday morning. It was so nice to ski over to the condo for lunch and then get back on the slopes after a quick lunch. Then we skied until is closed. Wednesday and Thursday were pretty much the same schedule. There were 8 lifts but we just stuck to Giant Steps lift because we had so much fun on those runs and the terrain park.
We skied in different groupings throughout the day depending on skill level. I figured out that I'm the second to last slowest skier out of my family. I couldn't keep up with Marshall, James, Lynnlee, Kade and Tag. They just pretty much put their skis straight and fly down the hill without turning, even on blue runs! I like a few more turns than that. Sienna take it the easiest but she was going pretty fast by the end of the week. It was fun to see her improve. 

I guess my pictures are out of order. This is from dinner at the pizza place Monday night.

It was cloudy and stormy most of the time but we got a nice view Tuesday afternoon and you could see red rock and plateaus in the distance. It was so beautiful.

James had to get home for soccer practice. He went home Wednesday after skiing with Grandpa and Grandma Lowry. It was so nice of them to come visit, watch Wes while we skied, and take James home. We headed home Friday morning. This was the view down the canyon back home. 
It was such a fun spring break! It definitely was easier with older kids.

Music and the Spoken Word

We have been wanting to go to Music and the Spoken Word for the last year. We had church at noon last year and now it is 1:30 so we knew it would work to go to church after. I had it on my calendar for a Sunday in the fall and then I had a meeting come up or something and we didn't go. Then we had it on the calendar again in January and something came up. Then I put it on the calendar in February. I checked the website the night before and noticed that they weren't doing a live broadcast because they were on tour. Haha, glad we figured it out before driving there. Well, I put in on the calendar for today and it actually worked out. The kids weren't too excited about waking up early on a fast Sunday but they were good sports. They also weren't excited to wake up early but it's spring break so they have all week to sleep in. We got there at 9:00 which was perfect. There were still a good amount of benches open and time to take it all in. The music was beautiful and it was cool watching the camera people, and behind the scenes.

Utah Grizzlies Hockey

We went to the Grizzlies game with our Get Out Pass. James and Lynnlee didn't go so we took two friends instead. James was with friends and Lynnlee was serving at a wedding for her friend's friend. 

Tag brought Gio and Kade brought Drew. It was a very fun and exciting game. The score went back and forth, and there were a lot of penalties.

Lynnlee's State FCCLA

Lynnlee presented with Hannah at State FCCLA in Layton. They left early Tuesday morning. The cool thing about FCCLA is that you can compete along or in pairs. She and Hannah got to do their presentation Tuesday morning and get it over with. Then they were able to relax and enjoy the rest of the time there. There were workshops, college booths and a service project that they walked around during their free time. 



Friday night they shopped at Target and bought matching shirts and ate dinner at Pizza Pie Cafe.
They walked around Barnes & Noble.
They stayed over night and Lynnlee got to room with Hannah, Brooklyn, and Lexi. Does it get any better
 than that? 


Wednesday they had awards. Lynnlee and Hannah got gold. A few other teams did too so they didn't qualify for Nationals but it is still really impressive that they got enough points for gold.
She got back Wednesday afternoon and was wiped out. Such a fun two days!

Top Golf for Lynnlee's Birthday

Lynnlee wanted to go to Top Golf for her birthday. Unfortunately it was too tricky to take her whole group of friends so we planned for her to take Hannah and Bailey. I took them on a Saturday afternoon. They had appetizers and sodas while they golfed and played the different games. We each won a game so that was fun. I enjoyed golfing too even though I played terrible.
