Sorry

Afrer a lot of fighting with each other. saying hurtful things, not wanting to go on a family activity which we had planned, Jere and I took a drive to cool down.  When we got back, the kids made us this sign and put it on the door in the garage.

Valentine's day

Heart pizzas, roses, and candy.  I think we had a good Valentine's day.  Andi "made dinner"  with her toy food.

Andi's 100 poster

For the 100's day of school, Andi had to make a poster.  She wanted a rainbow poster.  I asked Jenn if she would bring over some of her beads.  There are 30 beads in the clouds, seven colors with 10 in each color. Plus 3 unicorns for decoration.  So 103!   She helped count them all out, and put them in the rainbow shape and we helped her hot glue them on the board.

Thanks Goodness for an Aunt who has lots of beads to help!

Paint Night with Garrett

Garrett got a paint nite for Christmas.  We took him to his first paint night experience.  I think the paintings turned out really good.

Unicorn House

Andi made a unicorn home using her doll house.  She wanted me to take a picure.  Yep her room is a mess.  It pretty much stays a mess.

If you look closely you can see  Andi in the picture too.

Plant: dying or thriving

We have a plant that one side of the plant is thriving.  The flowers are blooming and beautiful.  The other side of the plant is dying, it is wilted, turned brown, has now blooms or leaves.  Why would half of the plant be dying? 

Devin's 12th Bday

 Jenn took Devin and 3 friends bowling.

 I made him an Oreo ice cream cake

He got some fun presents: A weighted blanket, snow pants, googles, pokemon cards.  He is now 12 and was ordained to the Aaronic Priesthood for our church.  He can help pass the sacrament.

Garrett's Connect Set

For Christmas, Garrett go a roller coaster connect set.  He built it. The roller coaster goes really fast. It is pretty cool.  Plus it glows in the dark.

Garrett Turns 16

We had a family birthday party for Garrett.  I mad nutter butter ice cream cake for him.   Hard to believe he is 16. He really loved the D And D mats from my mom. We also got him an escape room in a box.  It was really a lot of fun to play. Jennifer also took Garrett tubing at Soldier Hollow the day before.

Chocolate Birthday Party

Vickie and Earl came up for Devin's and Garrett's priesthood ordinations, and we went to the Just Add Chocolate for a birthday celebration for both Garrett and Devin.  We made about 1/2 of chocolate each.  It was so much fun and delicious. 

New Leortard

For her birthday she got a new leotard and skirts for dance.  She loves the both.  She especially loves the skirt.  She got four of them.  She now wears a skirt over her pants to school each day.

Little Forger

I came home from work and Devin had gotten Andi from the neighbor's house.  She had her January reading chart on the table all traced and filled in and my signature written on the bottom. 

Andi's Birthday!

On Andi's birthday, she started the day with Breakfast in bed, made by Garrett and Devin,  had her favorite dinner of Meatballs, and opened presents.  She got more unicorns, a craft kit from Grandma Doolilttle, a S'more kit from Grandma Brunner, a unicorn puzzle, shrinky dinks.   She even got a necklace from her new friend Eve, who lives in West Virginia and she hasn't met yet.

She is the cutest 6 year old.
She loves to sing and dance and be with friends.  She loves to snuggle with you in the mornings.  She really enjoys Kindergarten.  She is becoming quite the good little reader.  She brings us so much joy.

S'more party

Olivia got us a Vintage S'more maker for Christmas so we had a S'more party after dinner!

Andi's 6th Birthday party

Andi invited over 4 little girls for her birthday party, we played with played dough, danced, played with bubble wrap, ate snow cones, had a rainbow birthday cake with surprise skittles in the in the middle.  It was 2 hours of pure joy for Miss Andi.
