Basement + Life

Lee is getting a lot done on the basement!  The kitchen is coming along. David Peterson came one night and helped us level stuff, which was really helpful.  It's very exciting see it all come together!

Love this quote....

Stake youth activity!  Shanna with Amelia and Clair.

On our way to something there was a memorial for a police officer that died, I believe. 

We saw Tac Shepherd in The Hunchback of Notre Dame.  He was the Hunchback and did an excellent job!

Ice cream after!

We headed up to PA for church and to celebrate Kylie and Lisa's birthdays!

Troubles with shins....Ouch. 

We found out that Cal did not get in to BYU Provo.  Rats.  But he did get in to BYU-Idaho.  I'm not sure if he'll reapply to Provo, or do the Flex GE program. 

Last kid in braces!!!

More kitchen progress!!!

 

More meets!

Shanna tripped over two different hurdles at this track meet.  Rats. It was pretty painful.  And she was in first or second. 

I went up to my mom's for a quick happy birthday! 

Love seeing that green green grass.  Elden loves riding the motorcycle!

I had scrubbed my shoes with dishsoap to clean them up. I went running in the rain and formed soap bubbles, haha. 

Temple trip!

We did an early celebration for Shanna and Haley's 16th birthday!

 

Track & Mountain Biking!

Track and mountain biking are in full swing!  Shanna and Cal are doing track.  Cal is mainly doing just pole vault now and Shanna is doing pole vault, hurdles and some relays. Haley is enjoying another season of mountain biking on the western slopes!

Elden received a belated birthday card!

We had another day off and hiked up the Hawksbill trail.  

Haley made some yummy cream filled homemade donuts. 

And we bought s'more cupcakes from Haley's friend Lucy. 

Back to the yummy donuts!

Lee had several of his cell phone photos printed off on canvases. They turned out amazing!

This is Watkins Glen in New York.  You should go there!

Giants Causeway in Ireland. 

Many beautiful pictures of the valley. 

I bought cupcakes for the office and had a mini mint chocolate one.  YUM!

We started picking out finishes for the basement!

It was unicorn day and we got unicorn bagels at Mr. J's.  They were discounted because they were day-olds. 

A dog's best life. 

A service activity for the young men: getting dirt off the Bishop's driveway. 

Thankfully there is a landscaping place right by their house where you can dump dirt. 

Random little place to stay.  So cute!

Lee and I did a lunch date to Mr. J's. 

Smoothie time!

The girls are in full swing with stick shift driving.  We've been in some tight situations on hills so I put this sign up. 

We were at a track meet at Page County and sadly the rescue squad came.  I think the athlete ended up being okay, which was good. 

The boys and girls track team both won that night.  Pretty awesome!

Did some shooting out at our friend's place (Greg). Always fun to get the potato gun to work!

Motorcycle ride for Lee. 

That same night we went up to South River Picnic area to hang out and have foil dinners.  It was a fun day. 

Sunset on the way home. 

The kitchen is being built!

Pretty flowers at the office. 

I love the notes Elden keeps on the fridge.  Fun to see. 

More track!

Mountain biking with Dad!
