My beautiful girls!
I love watching them have fun together.
Caitlyn does not like to spend money, but she finally broke down and bought herself some sweaters and a blanket that she wanted. The sweaters look so cute on her! She sure is a beauty.
Hallee has been very busy this year. She has her voice and dance class back to back on Wednesdays. She is gone for dinner so I try to have something ready that she can eat before she leaves. She also has school choir Tuesday and Thursday morning. She is going to be in Hope of America this year so she has practice for that Wednesday right after school. She loves being busy and she loves spending so much time singing.
Hallee wrote a story for the Reflections contest and she won an Award of Excellence for it.
When the boys won awards they let me know so I could be at the assembly, but I didn't hear anything this time, so I didn't know the assembly was happening. I took this picture from the school Facebook Page. Hallee was excited to come home and show me her trophy.
Last week Hallee got to go to Tessa's birthday party at Lowes!

Hallee got to spend the whole day at Tessa's. She felt like it was her birthday!
Hallee made this flower for the art show at school. It says, "Dedicated to my mom because: She's so hardworking, kind, funny, and such an amazing mom. I love her so much and I wanted to show that through a flower. Because she is as beautiful as a flower." Hallee is so sweet and she sure made my day. It's so fun to get praise from your kids!
It's been cold and Jackson got a haircut so it was time to pull out his pajamas. He actually seems to like them.
Keith had Veteran's Day off. It was really nice for us to have a day together while everyone was at school. We went to the temple and did sealings and then went to lunch.
That afternoon everyone was home and just hanging out in the front room. I'm realizing that a lot of life is hard and stressful, but there are moments that are pure joy and this was one of them. Jonah made fun of me for taking a picture, but I had to capture it. I felt so much gratitude for my family and that we were all together and enjoying each other's company.
We went shopping that afternoon. Wyatt's facial expressions crack me up. We were in Ross and Wyatt comes rolling by in a chair making this face at me. I love him!
That night Hallee and I watched a movie together.
Wyatt and Keith went and saw the new Black Panther movie.
Last Saturday Tessa and Rockwell came over for the day. Hallee and Tessa always love to play in the shed.
I love watching Hallee and Tessa play pretend, it is so cute!
The girls thought it was fun to take their dinner out to the shed.
Wyatt and Rockwell made movies, played video games and laughed a lot.
We had our primary program last week. Hallee did a great job and loved having grandma and grandpa there to watch her.
Last Sunday was Garth's 88th birthday. Kelly made him a cake and planned for people to come by and celebrate.
Garth told us stories about his mission and how God has helped him throughout his life. It was nice to have that time with him.

Your girls are beautiful and so sweet! I loved what Hallee wrote about you and said it too! So sweet! That's nice that you were able to visit Garth on his 88th birthday and that he talked about his mission! That's good he can remember it!
So many great things in this post! Your family is just so cool Al. That art piece was so sweet that Hallee made about you. I cannot get over how cute Jackson is in his pjs!
