We sent this selfie to B and Z and told them it was pouring rain and that we were warming up in the car.  

Just a few minutes later, we received this picture of them on their way to church.  So cute, I'm still laughing.

Jim and I took a little 26 hour trip with this boy for a lacrosse camp in Denver.  He didn't like being an only child.  haha

I loved going to her "student led" PTC tonight.  It was fun learning about what she does at school and her new school is absolutely amazing.

These 4-wheeler came in the mail today for our almost 18 year old.  

Saturday night disco skating has become more serious than we thought.  

We can't stop laughing...seriously?

Conference today and I'm still in my pjs.  I always look forward to being fed by our leaders and today did not disappoint.  We are missing dad who is away on business, but homemade cinnamon rolls, legos, and blankets helped a little.

I told you he was one of the guards (D-line), he fits right in. He had to wear pink just like his brother (in honor of Grandma F.)

 I love how this image captures Uncle Curt and Big Bro Z pumping him up and reminding him to keep his chin up!  It was a tough game and loss.

 I felt so bad that he had a violent, painful stomach-ache and had been throwing-up before, during, and after this game.  But you would have never known…he had several great receptions and one TD.  Sorry buddy and great job!

 Grandma was thrilled to be in the stands for his great game.

One last picture before they washed their faces.  I let them sleep in an extra hour since we were out until almost midnight.  You can see her red tired eyes.  I had a spinning headache all day and spent most of the day recovering from our night.

We always score with Dad's work parties and this one was a hit!  He scored 40 Lagoon tickets and we used them all but 1! I only have one picture of the older boys and all their friends but they had a ton of fun! I left my camera home because it was cold and rained a little, iPhone had to do.

Free AMAZING FACE PAINTING included.

 I have never been to Lagoon durning Frightmares, and it was a little scary.  Spooky characters were dressed up all over the park and loved to chase the younger kids.   

Other than the fact that is was a little cold for my comfort and my hamburger and hot chocolate didn't sit well after three roller coasters, it was the perfect night and the kids had so much fun!  Thanks DAD:)
