The apple doesn't fall from the tree...

Ok, so I guess it's time I admit that Lyndie definitely takes after me. She is so funny and she is always cracking me up.

Neighborhood get together

Have I mentioned how much I love our neighborhood? We all got together last weekend for a fire and roasting marshmallows at the park again. It's so fun to live somewhere where everyone likes to do stuff together. It was really fun!

Jeremy is babysitting...

So this is Jeremy's idea of watching the kids for me. Both kids with their own electronic device in hand and Jeremy snoring on the end of the bed. NICE!

Time to move the baby monitor!

Sawyer finally discovered his baby monitor in his crib the other day. Time to find a new home for it. :)

Basketball Court/Patio and pad for the shed

We were finally able to get our concrete poured! The weather cooperated and it looks great. As we watched the men do all this hard work we were thankful to not be out there doing it ourselves. Can't wait to set up the basketball hoop for Logan this weekend and start shooting some hoops with the family!

John and Brooke's Wedding

This is the new family John and Brooke created by getting married. Austin, Trista, Porter, and Dannon.


First dance as husband and wife.








This was John and Brooke's "fun" dance after they got changed. It was so fun to watch.

Jazz Game with Dad

They may almost be at the top of the Energy Solutions Arena, but that doesn't matter when it's free and you're out with just Dad. Logan got these tickets after playing for Jr. Jazz this winter. You can see how excited he is. So fun...

Taken Hostage

The girls have taken Sawyer hostage in their room and are "playing" with him. I love it when they have tender moments together. I hope it lasts...

Founder's Day Program

This year, the children's school put on a founder's day program to commemorate the founding of the PTA. Each grade had a song or part that they would present. The whole school sang together at the beginning. They sang Hero by Mariah Carey. They all stood in the isles of the auditorium and it was actually really neat.

Mallory's grade sang "This Land is your Land". Logan's grade did a dance to "Alabama Gal". Logan even had to dance with a girl as he put it. They both did really great and it was fun to see all their hard work pay off.

Happy Valentines Day!

Who would have thought that 11 1/2 years later we would have 4 kids, 1 dog, 1 house, and 2 cars and we still love each other. If money were no object I would buy you a new X Box 360. Thanks for all your hard work and providing us with such a great life and for being a worthy priesthood holder. I love you!
