Valentine's Day

Hallee made a Valentine's box at school.  They are learning about Utah History so they made wagon valentine boxes.  It's so nice that they do them at school!

Alisha dropped off flowers and chocolates for Caitlyn.  She wrote her a note saying how much she loves her and how grateful she is to have her as a friend.  I thought that was so sweet and Caitlyn loved it.

Keith got me and the girls flowers.  He is such a great father and husband. 

He also got Wyatt and Jonah some candy bars.  I love that he got things for the kids because I didn't do anything.  I'm sporadic with Valentine's day, sometimes I get the kids things and some times I don't. It was so nice to have Keith take care of it.

Jonah spent Valentines Day at the Jazz game.  Ian invited him to the game that day.  We had to pay for a Covid test because of the short notice, but I figured it was worth the money when he gets a prime rib dinner and courtside tickets.  He wore a bright yellow sweatshirt so it was easy to pick him out in the crowd.  There he is courtside.

Jonah and Ian sat courtside for the second half and sat behind the bench during the first half.  Jonah loves every minute of the game! It's such a cool experience for him and I'm so excited for him that he has been able to go three times this year.

He took this picture of Rudy Gobert.  I can't even imagine being that close! He said he can hear what they say during the time outs.  He also got to throw the ball to Donovan Mitchell during halftime warm ups and give him a high five.  He said Karl Malone was sitting a few rows behind him and waved to him. Mel and I were talking about how he is living our dream! 

Last Friday Caitlyn and Kiersten went to an escape room. Kiersten took her little sister and Caitlyn took Wyatt. Wyatt was thrilled, he has wanted to do an escape room.  They had a lot of fun and they solved the puzzle.

Caitlyn texted me and told me that they were going to get a treat.  Then she sent me a picture of her "smoking" a cinnamon stick. I told her that I hope she was setting a good example for Wyatt.

She sent me this picture and said, "don't worry Wyatt isn't smoking."  Caitlyn loves to go to The Wash, a Mormon bar here in Provo.  They have a whole menu of nonalcoholic drinks and sour shots.  Caitlyn is such a great big sister.  They both had a great time.

Wyatt made his own escape room the next day.  He did a really good job and Keith and I had fun solving it.

Saturday night we told Hallee and Wyatt that they could have friends over for dinner and a late night.  Wyatt invited Dallin and Eddie and Hallee invited Tessa.

This was Hallee and Tessa's face when I told them that Tessa got to stay until 9 PM.  They are so cute.

They all had fun playing together.

On Sunday I loved watching all of my kids participate in the meetings.  Jonah blessed the sacrament for the first time, he did great, Wyatt passed the sacrament, Caitlyn was an usher and Hallee gave a talk in primary.  It was so cool to see them all contributing and helping in the ward.  

Keith is such a good dad.  He is always looking for ways to spend time with the kids by doing what they want to do. 

Wyatt has been playing Just Dance a lot lately.  He cracks me up when he walks around the house singing and dancing.

I love watching Hallee play pretend.  She was rushing around to get to a job interview and needed someone to watch her baby.

Cailtyn has her own baby, Jackson.  He cuddles up to her and lays his head on her shoulder, it's really cute.

On Sunday Mel and Amarie came over for dinner.  Caitlyn works every Saturday so she hasn't been able to see Amarie as much as she would like.  Here they are doing Wyatt's escape room.  We had enjoyed visiting and playing games with them.
