Sarah and I dressed the same last Sunday!  We also got photo-bombed by out favorite little boy!  We can dress alike 'cause we love each other AND 'cause we go to different wards.  She's attending one of the Young Single Adult wards in town.  She even just got called to be one of two sacrament meeting pianists.  What a great opportunity and a great way to serve!  She got lots more hours nannying this week.  She even worked one day for over eight hours!  We love having her around.

Megan worked her job at Funfinity and also got news from the University of Utah that they will provide her with a half-scholarship if she attends there.  That's a nice validation of her hard work in high school!  She hasn't heard from the other two schools to which she's applied yet.  She also started her last semester of high school.  She has TWO free periods and likes her other classes.  Things are looking good!


Mariah had ball games on Tuesday and on Friday.  She played great!  In her Friday game she sank two three-pointers.  It was pretty cool!  Her schedule changed by only one class this semester, but it means she is taking a class from her Cross Country coach who is great, so that is happy!


Cali and Chey had two ball games this week, too.  They are enjoying Springville rec and Bantam.  They also went back to piano lessons and they really enjoy that, too!  New Beginnings is next week so they are cramming to get some projects done.  Chey spent a good part of Saturday working on a skirt she is sewing, and Cali spent most of the day cleaning and organizing their room which had been completely taken apart when the basement flooded two weeks ago when we had major snowmelt combined with rain!  Ugh!  She did a fantastic job, though and the room looks great again! 

Matching socks aren't high on her priority list!
Bethany started piano again and had a basketball game.  She also started a punk-rock band with her friends called, "Pop Girls."  It was awesome for the 45 minutes it lasted.  She went to a birthday party Friday to Hang Time which is a play place full of trampolines.  I am happy to report that she did not break any bones!

Benjamin is very happy that we replaced our broken ipad this week.  He does play on it a lot, but I need it for the educational games for the kids!  Chinese apps, math apps, and Piano Marvel--for piano lessons.  He definitely benefits the most, though.  Anyway, he continues to do Karate twice a week, enjoy school, and play with friends.

I did accounting all week.  This year-end stuff makes me glad I don't have more clients.  :)  It's nice to be busy, though.  We had stake conference this weekend so that was nice.

Kevin is still working on his book and is going to a recording studio once a week to make a corresponding audio book.  He had a Fri-Sat work meeting this weekend so we didn't see him as much as we'd like!  He's a hardworking man, though, and we love him!
