McKena turns 8!

This past week has been busy with birthday celebrations for McKena. The celebrating will continue through next month, as she will be baptized on April 9th. It's crazy that my little girl is this old! We are proud of her and the blessings that she brings to our family! I'm so glad I have at least one girl!

Weather Issues

This is what happens when amount of snow (below) starts to melt.

You can imagine how nice it looks now, because since I have taken these 2 pictures it has rained for 2 days. It will continue to rain through tomorrow. Now, I wanted the snow to melt, but come on Mother Nature, enough moisture!


SPRING?=FAR AWAY

New Table and Chairs

This is what we did with part of our tax refund this year. We have been using a table with only 4 chairs (for our family of 6) for long enough! Now all that's missing is the delicious dinner to go on top!

McKena's School Program



Every year the 2nd graders at our elementary put on a "Patriotic Program". This year, Mckena was chosen to be a narrator with another little friend. She worked and worked on her lines and did a wonderful job performing them.

Zack's 13th Birthday




So, here I am going to try to catch up a little, after 2 months of non-posting. Back in February Zack celebrated his 13th birthday. It was a little of an after-thought because he spent his actual birthday in St. George at a soccer tournament. But, we are glad he's made it another year and we are proud of the young man he is becoming. I guess John took these pictures, because of course I would have insisted he put on another shirt over his undershirt. Also, I would have taken one that wasn't from the side. Oh well, it's the best we've got.
