Sleep

Kelly and Dad their favorite position. Kelly will hop up on Dad's lap as soon as he sit down. In fact she chooses to sleep on his lap over mine. Can you find the TV controls in the picture? He likes to keep it real close. Sometimes it is fun to see if we can get away from without him waking up. Let me tell you he always wakes up when we try. If we ever get the controls it would be like taking his power away from him :-) Gotta love the picture and he didn't even wake up when I took it. Now I will see what he says when he read the blog. Love ya hon.

SNOW

At least 4 more inches of snow do I need to say more.

Lexi's choir concert

Last night, Lexi had a choir concert. Sorry it's a little dark, but the lights were off. She is right in the front in the middle (on the director's right). They sang two songs they have prepared to sing in a festival next week. Last night was a practice concert so they could be more ready to perform for the festival. Lexi just got into choir at the beginning of the semester. She loves it. One of the songs they did was in German. They learned it in 3 weeks. I thought that was pretty good.

Happy Birthday Jaxson!

So this is a week late, but he deserves his attention like my other kids. He was so excited for his birthday. It's all I heard about for the whole month before hand. Once he was officially five he told me that he was going to kindergarten school now. I told him he couldn't go until next year and that he'd have to keep going to preschool. He got upset and said very sternly to me, "But I'm five!" Like that meant he automatically got to go to kindergarten. He's such a character.

Daddy Daughter dance

Last Friday the elementary school held a daddy daughter dance. Charlie took them before he had to go to Saginaw for the wrestling individual regionals tournament. The girls were so excited to go with him. I'm so glad he was able to take them. They had a blast and looked so cute!



This is Charlie and Makayla dancing. Charlie taught her how to swing.

Temple

The roads were great on the way to the temple. There was only one spot in WV and that county is having school for the first time today since we got all this snow.

The Washington DC temple Solemn Assembly room is huge. Dad thinks that 1200 to 1500 people could fit into it. It's sad we had only about 80 from out stake. It is a beautiful as the rest of the temple. I guess each stake has the opportunity to meet in the room about every 10 years or so.

The childrens spring break may change, like not have one to make up for the days that have been missed. All of the county schools are trying to get it all worked out. I hope to know in a week so I can make my plans for spring break.

SCHOOL!!

Yes the kids are all off to school today. I think that all of them were happy to go back to school.
Here is a picture of our eves. We have a heater in it put the down spout would freeze so Dad unhooked the down spout and this is some of the ice that has formed. I was funny when the kids went outside they would get a drink of the water that was dripping. In the picture I hope you can tell that the SUN is SHINNING!! No snow last night not even a dusting.

I hope our trip to the temple is good tomorrow for we get to go over the mountains and many people say that is not a good trip in the winter. We will be having a meeting in the temple on the top floor, what do they call that room? Why can't I remember? Darn. Anyway we have never had this type of opportunity before and are looking forward to it.
