Recent Happenings

I guess that's one way to cool off.

This made me laugh so hard - Cora was doing her chore vacuuming the stairs and was singing It's A Hard Knock Life. She has no idea how easy she has it, lol.

Just my precious girl home from school with a sickness.

Mom and Dad on their anniversary weekend. Sure love these two so much!
 

Our friends, the Brimhall's, just finished medical school so my graduation gift to them was taking their 5 kids for the weekend. We mostly just played at home but I did take them on a hike up Dishman Hills.

Lance and I celebrated our 19 wedding anniversary by going to the temple and a not-so-fancy dinner at Red Robin. But the indulgent cheeseburger and fries hit the spot!

Sometimes ice cream for dinner is a necessity.

Congrats to Ezra for his second student of the month! Woohoo! This time he was recognized by his PE teacher.

Lance went with Cora on her field trip to an Indians game and they sure had a blast.  Her best friend next to her is Presley.

We took the kids to the community fire day in Mead. It was pretty awesome, they had all kinds of vendors with more free swag than I ever want my kids to have, and cool demonstrations every 15 minutes. Kimball has recently changed his career choice from paramedic to firefighter so he was in heaven all morning long. They did CPR demonstrations, oil fire demonstrations, rescue from tall building demonstrations, enclosed room fire demonstrations, explosive trained dog and police dog demonstrations, robot demonstrations, every kind of rescue, police, medical vehicle you can think of, etc. etc. It was pretty cool even for adults.

Girls night!!! We had dinner at the Gilded Unicorn and went to see Kristina Kuzmic at the comedy club. She did not disappoint, I could have stayed there another 5 hours just soaking it all in. Wow. So good and so good to spend time with these ladies!

I went with Ezra on his field trip to Hutton Settlement where they did a nature scavenger hike. They learned about pine trees, forest fires, leaves, and had lots of cool drawings, some with charcoal from the burned trees.
