Weekends in St. George

We were able to spend a couple of weekends in St. George this winter. One weekend we let Dallon and Ally each take a friend! It was a fun adventure! We hiked on the red rocks and enjoyed the sun.Mylee thinks she is as big as Ally and Dallon and tries hard to keep up with them and their friends!

We spent another weekend in the warmth after we picked up Kevin and his friends after they climbed Cowboy Ridge in Zions! They ended up spending the night on the mountain. Luckily Kevin had good cell phone reception and was able to keep me updated!
When they got back we spent the day rock climbing at the Green Valley Gap! It was a great day for sun!

Ally -- doing great as a climber!

Dallon tried lots of new challenging routes --- he did amazing. And Kevin -- always the awesome Dad belaying everyone!

It was a fun time hanging out with friends!

At play!!

Mylee thinks she is a doll! She loves to climb in Ally's Dollhouse and play. She is so silly!
We went to watch Kevin play in a ward basketball tournament and Mylee insisted on wearing this old dance costume! When we got there her darling friend Landon was all dressed up to. Such a FUN age!

Mylee loves to carry around her Dora Backpack! Everywhere she goes she fills it with toys or stuffed animals!!

Bear Lake Snow Party!!!

We had a blast in Bear Lake with the Barlow's! We went sleigh riding and rode the 4 wheelers in the snow! It was a fun winter get away. The kids just loved the snow. When they got sick of this hill they had to find something more challenging!
So they started riding sleighs down the stairs by the Cabin. Weeeee Dallon and Noah!
GO Ally, GO! Sometimes my children scare me, but then they talk me into joining! I rode the stairs to and it was quite the rush!!!
They kids loved riding around on this 4 wheeler thing! It was handy to put everyone in and drive around! Thanks to the Barlow's for joining us for fun and to Colby and Laurie and Amber for providing all the toys and space! You are the greatest.
What a beautiful, sunny Bear Lake winter day! We skied all day the next day at Beaver...well I skied Dallon and Kevin snowboarded! But I forgot to take any pictures!!


Spring Showers!

We threw a Baby Shower for Mandy and her new baby girl! It was fun for me to get to hang out with the girls from the office! Where was JaNae hiding??





I made this yummy treat!!

School Days!

Here is what we have been up to in school...

Ally did her Biography Report on Sacajawea! She dressed up and did great! She even got a 100%!
Ally has been begging Kyle to come and read to her class! He did it for her! He was really cute with the kids and read them a book about bones...he was singing them bones, them bones right along with the kids! The 3rd graders went wild! He signed lots of autographs and answered lots of questions. He told the story about how our family was the only one he knew when he came to Utah! It was cute to hear him tell it! He is such a great friend to us!
Dallon has been working hard too in the 6th grade! They had a Medieval Fair for his class. Dallon's friends enjoyed getting locked up! Each Student was assigned a role that existed in Medieval times. Dallon was a Blacksmith. He made chain mail and a catapult. There were bakers, and even pickpockets, (the kid locked up)!The teachers made a feast and then they were each given some Medieval Money to shop at the Fair! Dallon turned his Catapult into a game! The kids loved it and Dallon was the "RICH" Blacksmith. It was a fun afternoon!

Sports...

It is amazing how much our lives revolve around sports! But we love every minute of it! Dallon and Ally both played Jr. Jazz this past winter. Dallon also played his first season of Church Ball! Dallon did awesome and had a great season! It is so fun to watch him play.

Mylee was always there cheering them on!


Kevin fits in time to run, climb and in the winter ice climb! Brrrr....

I didn't get any pictures of Ally's team in action! (Not a lot of action occurred) But they did all get to have lots of fun. Kev was the coach again! He did great and he is amazingly patient with the girls! They struggle to score but Kevin keeps them positive! They are all cute girls. At their Jazz game they got to meet the best looking Jazz player!!






Now we are looking forward to Baseball, Soccer, Dance Competitions, Relay Races, NBA Playoff Games......
