Our 9th Anniversary

It was our first time on a date since Covid started and our first time going out to eat. It was lovely! We went to Red Fuego in Orem and had some delicious Peruvian food. After we went on a hike up Provo Canyon called Lost Falls. It was so nice to be out in the mountains by ourselves. The hike was tougher than we anticipated, but we made it to the top. The last part was so rocky and steep and still covered in snow in some parts. The waterfall was beautiful though and so was the view. On the way back down I had to go to the bathroom so bad and Dan kept making me laugh. Haha. I laughed so hard that I cried. We had a great time. I love my Dan!

Mom's 60th Birthday!

n  

My mama just turned 60! It is a big birthday for her, but a birthday she didn't want to have haha. We went all out and celebrated her! We went to the zoo during the day. During covid times, we had to make a reservation, wear a mask and stay on a one way path. It actually wasn't too bad! We saw a lot of animals and had an enjoyable time together. Lucy stuck to my mom's side the whole time. Lincoln had a blast with Graham and Jack really liked seeing all the animals. It was fun!

After we picked up pizzas and went back to my mom's to party. Remi and Mindy decorated the deck with 60 purple balloons. We also got her 60 water bottles that had 60 sayings of why we love her. We also played a game all about her. It was fun! We love our mama!

Mother's Day

Mother's Day was a wonderful one! Dan and the kids made me a nice breakfast in the morning. Then we got ready and had our home church. 

After we visited Kathy and took her some gifts. My cousin has a friend who made some sacrament plates that were engraved with the sacrament prayer for home church. I bought a couple and gave one to Kathy. It is a special momento to remember our time having home church.  Kathy loved it. We visited for awhile and watch Jack go up and down the slide. Then Kathy took the kids to go feed the goat. They love that. Kathy is such a great person, mother, grandmother. We love her so much!

Then we went to my mom's for dinner. The men handled it all which was great! We chatted and played in the backyard. It was good to be with the whole family! I sure love my momma. She was upstairs most of the time after dinner playing with her grandkids and helping Lincoln with legos. She is such a great grandma and mom!

Easter 2020

We had a very good Easter! I made a yummy breakfast then the kids got their Easter baskets. They each got bubbles, treats and a small toy. Then we got ready for church. We had our little sacrament and then Lucy sang Gethsemane for us. It was special! Later we talked on the phone with our families and then dyed some eggs. A couple of days later, my parents brought over an Easter gift for them. They all got new puzzles and loved them!

Quarantine Birthday

Today is my 31st birthday. It’s my quarantine birthday. And it was really good! Despite all the horrible coronavirus and everything that it has done to the economy, I feel like people are serving each other more. Even though I didn’t go out and do anything super fun or go out and eat, I felt very loved.
