Father's & Son's and Mother's

This year for the Father's and Son's, it was held at the boy scout camp about an hour from our house.  Usually in our church a campout with fathers and sons is held to commemorate the restoration of the Aaronic priesthood to Joseph Smith on May 15th 1829. It's this same priesthood that Aaron held in the bible--Moses' brother.  The boys look forward to camping with just the guys.  Elden was especially excited to go this year, it was so cute.  He's gone before, but still was very excited about it.

The next day was Mother's Day.  I received this fun "bouquet" of  chocolate flowers, complete with compliments and sweet notes and pictures from my kids.

And for some other happenings in these parts: Clark had his spring piano recital and did a great job.  He had both of his pieces memorized too. He has been progressing well in piano, which is exciting.  Clark will take a break from lessons this summer and a little from practicing too (not too much though, ha ha) and Cal starts lessons on Thursday!

I was in charge of the game for our weekly family home evening a few weeks ago.  I picked "chubby bunny".  Have you played it?  You put a marshmallow in your mouth and say "chubby bunny".  After each marshmallow you have to say it again, "chubby bunny".  The winner is the one who has the most marshmallows in their mouth AND can say "chubby bunny". I should have played.  I might have won!
