Monday was Sarah's 20th birthday!!  And she was up in Rexburg being responsible and going to school.  So, Beth, Ben, and I hopped in the car and drove up to see her!  We had so much fun!  Beth and Ben were great in the car and when we got there we gave Sarah lots of birthday hugs and got to see her room and her apartment.  Then we walked to a nearby park and played and talked for a bit.  After that we went to WalMart to buy some pants and a CAKE and went out to eat at Costa Vida.  Back at the apartment, we Facetimed with family at home and had her open her PRESENTS!  It was so great to see her and be able to be with her for her birthday.  She is doing great and loving her classes and is super happy to be 20--since it is one of her favorite numbers.  We love that girl.

One of her birthday presents was this dress!
On Tuesday and Thursday, Cali and Chey had tennis matches.  They won both pretty easily.  They wish they had a little bit more competition to test their skills, but they are still having fun!  They also had piano lessons this week and made suckers at Young Women's.  They've had a busy week.

Mariah continues to run everyday for the cross country team and goes to open gym for basketball twice a week.  She still manages to get her homework done in spite of all the boys who text her wanting to "talk!"

Beth and Ben had karate and fourteen friends (that was hyperbole) over everyday.  The weather was nice this week so they played outside a lot.

With the weather so nice, I went hiking twice with my friends!  Round Peak one day and Wardsworth (in our canyon) the next.








We had our house inspection this week and now we have to work on getting some stuff fixed.  We may even need a new roof!  But we are moving forward.  We even got to go look at the house we are buying once again.  We're excited!

Megan and Savannah are doing well in Provo.  Meg is still on the stressed side of the "Getting Used to Things" scale, but we have confidence she will figure it all out.  Savannah is enjoying her classes, and we love hearing her stories of her quirky teachers!  Megan is teaching Savannah how to make hamburgers thanks to her expertise from working at the Creamery and I love hearing that they hang out together!
