Kyle is a real Paige turner!

Kyle has been dating Paige for a while now.  They met in a dance class and Keith made us laugh when he said, "Kyle is a real Paige turner."

On Monday night Kyle and Paige came over for dinner.  Elijah and Lindy wanted to hang out again so Mel and Elijah came down too.  It was so fun.  We played "What do you Meme" and had some good laughs.  It was great to get to know Paige better.  She is out going, fun to be around and easy to talk to.  We all love her and we love seeing Kyle so happy.

Wyatt wanted to play a game of pool with Elijah.

Hallee was excited to have Keith all to herself and play Scrabble with him while we were playing a game in the kitchen.

I made dinner really easy and bought it so all I had to do was bake it.  Cailtyn and Lindy made cheesecake for dessert.

The boys wanted chocolate shakes instead.  For some reason Jonah and Wyatt shared a cup and Jacob had his own.  Funny boys!

I pulled my camera out that night so we had fun taking pictures.

Wyatt wanted to take some pictures of Jackson.

 

I love this picture of Keith that Wyatt took.  I sure love him!

Wyatt got a great one of Elijah too.  

Wyatt has started making this creepy face a lot! 

Tuesday was Lindy and Jacob's last day here.  We had fun spending the morning with them.  After lunch we headed down to Salt Lake.  Caitlyn stayed home with Hallee and Wyatt and Tiff's kids. Me, Lindy, Jonah, Jacob and Tiff went over to Mel's.  We went and got ice cream with Mel and Elijah and visited for a while.  After that we went to mom's house. Mom took Lindy and Jacob to the airport so we had to say goodbye.  We were all so sad to see them go.  We all loved having them here and I can't believe how quickly it went by. They are both so much fun to be around.  They are helpful, kind and hilarious.

Last week I was able to get Wyatt into the Orthodontist and we stopped for lunch at Keith's office.  Wyatt love having time alone with mom and dad.

He loved playing ping pong with Keith.

Hallee had crazy hair day today on her zoom call.

Caitlyn baked some cakes today.  The smell delicious and the frosting is so good. I can't wait to eat them tonight.

Caitlyn is such a big help around here.  She is always willing to help out and she makes everyone feel loved!  I'm so grateful for all of her help.

The Parkway and the Skate Park

We have spent a lot of time at the skate park and the parkway during this quarantine.  It has helped us stay sane.  Wyatt is always working on improving his skills.  He is getting really good at jumps on his scooter.

Lindy and Caitlyn had a lot of fun riding ripsticks together.

They came with us to the skate park one day.

Caitlyn likes to "butt rip."

We rode over to the parkway from the skate park and Lindy and Caitlyn had fun riding down the hill.

I loved watching them, their facial expressions were so funny.

I stood at the bottom of the hill and directed traffic so they wouldn't get hurt.  They rode down the hill and then went through the tunnel, so I would tell them when it was clear.

Hallee loves riding down that hill too.

I told Jonah to take a selfie while he and Jacob were at the parkway.  Here they are on the tire swing. They spent a lot of time at the parkway.

On Monday I took the girls over to the parkway.  Lindy and Caitlyn were excited to "butt rip" down the hill again.

I was so impressed with their balance.

I brought my scooter too and we all rode down to the swings.  Hallee was so excited to ride on the tire swing.

I went back and forth between the girls while they were on the swings.

Lindy pushed Hallee while I pushed Caitlyn.

I love my girls! 

Aren't they the cutest?

They had fun swinging together for a while.

I took so many pictures because they looked so cute!

Lindy took a turn on the swing.

I love living so close to the Provo River Trail.  It is a little piece of heaven for me. 

Time flies when you are having fun.

It was so great to have Lindy and Jacob here and feel normal again.  I think March felt like it lasted a year and April started going by quicker, but the week Lindy and Jacob were here flew by! We had so much fun and we all wished they could have stayed longer.

Caitlyn and Lindy had fun together.  Lindy helped Cailtyn with her math, I was so grateful.  I had fun watching chick flicks with Lindy and Caitlyn. I loved showing them movies that I loved when I was about Lindy's age.

Jonah and Jacob are two peas in a pod.  They are so similar and get along so well.  They both love video games, but they love to be active as well.  Every day they would ride scooters along the parkway and up to 7-11 or Family Dollar.  I would give them some money and they would buy a drink or a treat and they also found some frisbees that they were excited about.  One day we went over to the Parkway and ran into them when they were on their way home.  It was the perfect way for them to get out every day.

Hallee was excited to ride scooters with them.

Jonah and Jacob also spent plenty of time playing games on their phones.  Wyatt loved hanging out with them.

They put the swing and the tire swing back up on the parkway. The kids are very happy about that.

We have loved the Spring weather. 

I had to take this pictures because cute, little Hallee's butt crack is always showing.  Cutest, little butt crack ever.

Hallee loved having Lindy and Jacob here.  Lindy always gives her lots of love and attention.

She was thrilled when Lindy played a game with just her!

The boys had fun playing pool with Keith.

Jacob and Jonah wanted to make muffins.  I thought that was so cute!

I helped them a little bit, but they did most of it on their own.

They were so proud of their applesauce muffins.

Caitlyn loves to bake, so she was thrilled to make a chocolate cheesecake with Lindy.

On Saturday Lindy drove the kids to Salt Lake and I stayed home with Hallee and Wyatt.  They went to grandma's first and had fun playing games there.  Jonah and Jacob stayed and hung out with Dante until Keith picked them up on his way home from helping his dad move.  Lindy and Caitlyn went over to Mel's and had fun hanging out with their cousins all night.  Caitlyn loved staying out late and driving home with Lindy.  Tiff and her kids came over while they were gone so Hallee and Wyatt were in cousin heaven too.

It was nice having Lindy and Jacob here on Sunday for church.  Lindy played the piano for us.

It was great to have these three administer the sacrament.  I'm so grateful we have been able to have the sacrament at home!

We had church over facetime with grandma, grandpa and Alexys.  I taught the lesson and I asked Jacob, Jonah, Lindy and Caitlyn to share something.  I was impressed with their preparation and insights.  That night we all watched The Fighting Preacher Together.  The night before Keith and I watched Knives Out with the older kids. We all enjoyed that movie.
