Grammy



I had to throw this picture in.  This is Grammy's favorite place to sit.  Here she is cramming for book club!

Talent Show and Dr. Suess


The local elementary held a talent show in the spring.  Hailey did a great job. 



The school also celebrated the birthday of Dr. Suess.  Cole went as Mr. Brown and Hailey went as a Who from Who-ville.  Check out the hair!  Crazy is an understatement!

YW Winter Campout

The last few years I have taken the Young Women in our ward on a winter campout.  The first year we didn't have snow, last year there was a lot of snow but it was relatively warm.  This year there wasn't a lot of snow but brrrrr, it was cold.

This is Sierra trying to light a fire without matches.  The girls learned to use steel wool/ batteries and flint/steel.  They also used different types of materials as tender.  I had a great time and I think the girls did too.

Formals

Several girls were asked to decorate a table for a formal dinner and dance.  This was Brook's

Prom with Jamin Jeske
We drove down to Logan, Utah to find her dress.  I cant believe the bargain we found and she looked so beautiful!  She had a great time with friends.

Holiday Treats



Hailey didn't catch a lerechan but he did leave candy behind!  Lucky girl.


Cole Turns 12

It was a busy and excited couple of weeks around Cole's Birthday!

He was ordained as a Deacon in the Aaronic Priesthood.

He got to attend his first ever Priesthood Session of General Conference.

He Participated in Baptisms at the temple for the first time!  This has been a special time for him and for me to see him grow into a wonderful young man.  I can see a difference in him as he learns his responsiblities and takes them seriously.
