Not photoed

    Not a lot of photos. Charlie regularly harasses us to take her to all the different drink shops and here's photo proof that her harassment works, more often than not. (Tell me you’re the baby of the family without telling me you’re the baby of the family.) 

 

    Not pictured is a visit to Mark and Rio's new place in North Salt Lake, a new hair cut for McClane and daily hairdos for our friend & neighbor in preparation for her play performances, which we'll be attending tonight. 

    And HAPPY SPRING! 

Surprise photos

      I didn’t think I had any photos for this week’s post only to find these surprise gems in my photo gallery. You’re welcome!

Megamind or Charlie?

Such a ‘special’ angle.

          This week Isaac has officially moved out and McClane has moved into Isaac's old room and he's so stoked. Isaac's new place is very nice and, with Morgan's help, he's all moved in and it's quite cozy. 

    Daylight Savings has been great, so far, and only 69 sleeps until schools out!

A couple fun events

    We got to attend a baptism for our good friends youngest son, Kallen, and it was a great day and all four of their boys sang "I Love to See the Temple" and it's one of the most memorable renditions I've heard to date. (There may have been an outburst of giggling that was on the verge of hysterical laughter from one of the brothers and it made the whole thing perfect!)

He's the same cute boy who rode with Greg in the plow truck a few weeks ago.

    McClane's basketball season is now officially over and despite losing every game, the team showed vast improvement throughout the season and seemed to have fun at every game.

This was a great team and we love the coach!

    And I'm now on to my St. Paddy day nails. I even got gems!

 

A little better photo of the team at the first, and last, game of the tournament division.

    So what hasn't been photographed, but what is happening recently is Mark and Rio are moving up in the world and have found a much nicer place to live and will be moving in just a few days. And Isaac and Morgan have also found a place to live after their married, but until then, Isaac will be moving in to the place in just a few short days so, so long to his rent payments to me every month, and hello to a bigger rent payment for him. And no one is more excited for Isaac to move out then McClane because that means he's getting to take over Isaac's bedroom and he's been making plans for months on how he's going to occupy that space. (It's only too bad I can't collect rent from McClane.)

    So there's the latest and greatest for us. Happy Springing-forward this weekend!

Fun with friends

     We had fun at Lucky 13 Bar & Grill with good friends. Delicious burgers and some great guacamole. 

How did they know to put that leg-lamp behind us?!

Definitely worth the drive into the city.

     And then Charlie finished up her basketball season and at her last game she made lots of points, her best game overall.

Fun team.

     I can’t believe we’re headed into March! Only one more week before daylight savings begins and only 83 more sleeps before the last day of elementary school for us.

A little something

    A little snow, a little plowing for Greg (and some guests) and a little photo shoot for Smalls.

Our friends let their two boys tagalong with Greg while he was plowing and they loved it.

And for some reason Charlie had this photo shoot with Smalls. He's nearly 10 years old and it's starting to show.

       Not a lot of excitement this week. Just days racing by and the sun staying up past 5:30 P.M.!

Last Valentine's Dance!

    Another cute set of Valentine-themed gel-nails. A fairly good amount of snowfall. Surprise Valentine treats and flowers. And Charlie's 6th grade dance, and one more 'last-dance' at the elementary school for me!

 

 Thanks goodness it's already nearly all melted away!

We must have a cute Valentine Hairdo!

 

Thank goodness Greg was the parent on the hook for the dancing.

Charlie definitely preferred hanging out with her friends.

Proof we were there.

Group dances are the favorite dances.

    A nice week. 197 sleeps until the last day of school and even less sleeps until warmer weather and longer days!

We actually did some things

    Saturday we attended the baptism of a good friend and got to spend a little time with the grand-girls. I had to grab a picture of the two who insisted on sitting on the smaller chairs.

Elliot liked sitting on a whole stack of chairs and brought over no less then 5 chairs to be stacked before she sat down. It was hilarious.

    I finally got a couple photos of McClane playing basketball. This last game was probably the best game his team has played all season, but sadly they still lost.

 

Beau and Harley brought over cute Valentine cards for a few of us.

    And this week turned into a few dentist appointments with a subsequent orthodontist visit for McClane.

This is how you spend your wait time at the dentist office.

    And just when I thought we were getting ahead of our finances, the dishwasher springs a leak and needs to be replaced. So much for our credit card cash rewards going in the bank!

 

    So that's about it. Back to doing dishes the easy way.
