Lynnlee Serving at a Wedding

Lynnlee and her friends were asked to serve at their friend's sister's wedding reception. They were so excited to help out! It was at Highland Gardens which is a beautiful wedding venue.

Lynnlee's Sweet 16

Lynnlee is 16!!! It's such an exciting milestone! It was on a school day so we were up early. She requested egg mcmuffins for breakfast. 

We picked up her license during her lunch break. 

We stopped at Chick-Fil-A for birthday lunch and stopped by Lowry Doors. James became a Lowry Doors employee so we needed to pick up the truck James would be driving. The plan was for Lynnlee to drive the old truck, "Reggie." I drove the Lowry Door truck home and Lynnlee followed me in the suburban.

Her friends came over after school to hangout. They joined us for dinner. We had copy cat Cafe Rio.

So Lynnlee is driving Reggie on the right and James is now driving the truck on the left. Lynnlee is pretty spoiled because the parking pass for the high school is in her truck window. James is so kind to let her keep it and he parks on the side streets.

Lynnlee's birthday party with friends was very chill. They bedazzled sunglasses and then played games.

I don't have any pictures of Lynnlee and her friends but I do of Sienna. This helps to see what they were doing for the party.

It is so nice having another driver! Lynnlee loves driving and has taken her siblings with her to run errands, get treats, and go shopping. 

Lynnlee has had a great year! She has thrived in 10th grade, had a great group of friends, and enjoys her job as a babysitter. She plays county soccer, she is an FCCLA officer, and is quite the nail artist. Sienna got a gel nail set, and since then Lynnlee has enjoyed doing nails. 

Charlie's Family in Town: Skiing, Lindon Temple Open house, and Utah Mammoth Game

 Next up: night skiing at Brighton. It was a heat wave that week so it felt very strange while it was in the 70s in the valley to go night skiing. It was so warm at the resort that I only wore my light fleece with a t-shirt underneath for the first two hours. Once the sun went down, I put my jacket on. The sunset was so beautiful!

At the top of the resort, looking at the Heber Valley.

It worked out perfectly that the Lindon Temple Open house was going. We went right after school. We had heard there were long lines most of the time but it ended up not being long when we went. When we finished, the line was long. 

We got discount tickets to the Utah Mammoth game. It worked out for Marshall to take the boys to the game.

Charlie's Family in Town: Pool, Grizzlies Game, Family Dinner

We love when Charlie's family comes to town! We started off with an afternoon at the Heber pool.

Next was the Grizzlies game. 

It was military night so it was cool to see some repel down from the ceiling. They brought out this huge flag for the National Anthem. I love huge flags. They are so cool!

Ali was out of town so it was fun to have Dan and Drew joined us. James dropped out last minute and Sienna had other plans so Betsy and Grace used their tickets.

We lost in overtime. It was such a sad ending to an exciting game.

We celebrated March birthdays. 

High School Soccer for James

James made the high school soccer team for his 4th and last year. He is a starter on varsity and loving it. There is a new coach this year and James gets along with him really well. That wasn't the case the last two years.

One of the parents takes pictures and posts them for everyone to have. Now we have a bunch of awesome pictures of James playing soccer.
