Happenings

Hallee loves to play games.  I loved seeing Jonah playing games with her.
Hallee had fun building forts one weekend. 
I cut Jonah's hair and it looked really good so I took a picture so I could try and duplicate it next time.  
We got to go to the Orem Temple Dedication in January.  It was nice that we could all go.  Wyatt ironed handkerchiefs for us the night before. It was really good and we are so excited to have a temple so close.
Caitlyn came home for a weekend to go to Kaleb's farewell.  We loved having her home. She was sad to see Kaleb go. They worked together for a couple of years and she is going to miss him. 
Hallee and Caitlyn love to do their nails together.
Wyatt stayed home sick from school.  Jackson always stays with the kids when they are sick, it's really cute.
Shelley texted me this picture of Jonah with her girls.  Jonah went to Sawyer's dance concert and she dances with Jessica's girls so they all came over to talk to Jonah. They thought it would be funny to send me this picture.  It made me laugh!
Wyatt got ordained as a Teacher at the beginning of February. I'm having a hard time accepting how quickly he is growing up and becoming a teenager.
We were glad that grandma and grandpa came down for it.
It was neat that Jonah could stand in the circle too.
It has been a long time since I have made peanut butter play dough.  Hallee didn't really remember it, so we made some.
It was so good!  She had fun playing with it too.
Jonah played in the teacher/student basketball game. He said he had a great game and made a bunch of three pointers.  He had a lot of fun.
Hallee and Trinity did their country project together.  They chose Germany.  
We pulled out Wyatt's hover board and charged it and Hallee has loved riding it around.
We got to watch one of Damon's basketball games.  He is so fun to watch.  He always gives everything his all and he always has a smile on his face!
Jonah went to sweethearts with Kalli.  He had a great time. 
Jackson loves all the attention that the kids give him.
Hallee loves Jackson and loves when he will just lay on her.
Keith helped Wyatt rearrange his room and then Wyatt wanted to bring in the weight bench.  It feels a little crowded to me, but he thinks there is plenty of room.
I loved playing with Zariyah when we went to mom and dad's for the Feburary birthdays. She is just so cute!
Jackson loves to sit or lay on Keith. I thought it was cute when Keith fell asleep with Jackson.
Wyatt looks more like a teenager every day.  An evening bowl of cereal with his headphones on and that teenage look of, "what are you doing mom?"
Wyatt wanted to make cookies one night. It's nice that he can do it on his own, they were really good.  He did not however want me to take a picture of him!
Wyatt was so excited to spend the day with Rockwell for his birthday. They went to Lowes for hours and got McDonalds for lunch.
After that Rockwell came over for a while and they played video games together.  Wyatt loved every minute of it!
Dante reached out a while ago and asked if he could stop by sometime.  He talks to Jonah on the phone a lot and Jonah wanted to see him.  I was a little nervous, but felt like I was in a spot where I could see him and I thought it was important for Jonah.  He asked a couple of weeks ago if Sunday would work.  He came over for a few hours. We had a really good visit and I was so happy to see a lot of very positive changes.  He has worked at Harmon's for over a year and he has lost almost 100 pounds to be able to join the military.  It was so great to see those positive changes and have a good interaction with him.  I'm so glad he is building a happy life for himself.
