My Sister In Law Susie took this photo. She has her own Photo Blog at adelaide-photography
Rex had a pretty good first year of Rugby
Anna graduated with a scholarship and other honors that she didn't know about until after the honors ceremony, but that's OK. Just getting her graduated was a big milestone for me!
I got to go with the special ed class to an Aquarium field trip. I really had an appreciation for Joe's teacher and assistants. They really have their hands full! It was all I could do to keep track of just Joseph
Rex went to a Jimmer and Jackson basketball camp. He has had two basketballs in his hand ever since. It's how I get Anna up in the mornings sometimes
We waited for a couple of hours to see the Carl Bloch exhibit at BYU but it was well worth it
This was an ordinary thing to get a picture of but hey, I send Rick about a package a month
My brother built this little chicken coup and was very proud of it
I love Mother's Day. I don't have to lift a finger all day long
It was my turn to host the Missionary Mom's Luncheon. I made it easy on myself and got all the food at Costco. I gave every mother a book called "Drawing Closer To God" by Henry B. Eyring to send to their son's since I had sent one to Rick and he really loved it and was studying it carefully
A friend gave this beautiful keepsake box that she made to me. This picture does not do it justice. Thank you Carolee!
How could anyone resist this? They couldn't and Rex had plenty of cars to wash for his Eagle Project. He had to raise money to buy mulch for the cemetery
John is old enough to mow the lawn this year!
Home Teachers coming to visit. Who ever takes pictures of this? I do- well I gave the camera to one of the kids
This is about the 4th time Joseph has come home from school with his pants looking like this. They looked fine when I sent him to school!
Anna swept the top three biggest awards at the Lone Peak Art show this week. She got the "Best of Show", "Students Choice Award" and 1st place in Drawing. The man on the left and the football players are hers
David had an article published in the "Harvard Business Review" this week. This is his second
I think I need to do something about that Tooth Fairy. She is not very reliable and so my kids are leaving out notes on plastic bags to remind her!
Anna graduates from Seminary
I talked some neighbor kids into helping us crack nuts. Rex was the entertainment. I laughed so hard and had no idea that he was that funny. Now I know why all the kids like him so much. Why can't he be like that at home? What is it with kids and changing personalities when they walk through the door?
Rex gets his permit
Susie took these pictures of Anna and Abby
Joe brought me a flower! What a sweet boy
Abby and some friends did a Princess Party day to make a little money. They had crafts and a tea party and games etc. There were quite a few cute, little princesses there
