A Random Drop.

A double lemon pie is still so good... we reminisced a bit about all the pie Liv had as a baby.  Marie Callendars sales happened all the time back then... or something. 


Luke.... uh why aren't we buying all of these flip flops! Next year I may think the same thing....

 

Emma's birthday party... they jumped and jumped.... and ate the best krispies and cupcakes. 

The fifth grade science project is done... 


The genie truck came to check out our stuff and Luke was excited to see it and asked if that Genie was Blake.  

Just sitting on a rock.... ha. This is as sad as he gets.  I would say his pretend sad is more attitude....

ps that aloe next to him has its first bloom this year!



The magnet people sent us an email saying that the lottery results were being announced on Monday so be patient and wait until its all done... Since it was a couple weeks early I don't know why they said it but we were excited.  Then even more excited to find out about noon that Liv got accepted to Hyde Park!  We had tried to send her an email from my email earlier that morning and it was rejected... so then I thought that her school email was saved on the computer and sent one to herself.  She sent back a quick YAY!  


We needed to butcher our bushes and so Luke helped clean it all up.... I was cutting some branches and he would walk them back to the trash around the gate.... after two trips he said I think we should bring the trash can out here.... that would be a good idea.  He was right.  Just dumping them in. 



Hopefully they all grow... minus the weeds the rain has brought. 

Before Grandma's cruise we were talking about water shoes.... we saw a pair of tevas in Luke's size and he told me they were ugly.... so a few weeks later we were shopping and he found a blue pair and thought they were quite cool... tried them on and all.  My mom said I wouldn't have thought Luke got your shoe gene... but I think he did. I agree. 


This day he also found some fancy mario shoes.... so maybe it was just a bad day.  These did have controls on them though.... and lights... and something push.  


They were watching a show and we looked over at Luke ready to fight someone. 


Look at that "you guys are red hot. and we are chickens."  Closed captioning on Zoom is pretty cool. 


Another day at Dillards.... Camilla's been hoping that they have a baptism dress for her for the last year.  There's one we love that's not white and has a cut out back so we are hoping to manifest it in a better way. 

But anyway Luke found these... and thought he was hilarious. 


He would bring them over and then say "let's get them" and then laugh.... 


Press Play. 


Screenshots.

 Just a few ones that got us.  It always makes me laugh when Liv reads them and is like huh?  or that's a really good one!  depending on if she understands or not. 

I saw this and just want to try them out of interest... what a weird story.... real or not?

This was one of the names I took to the temple.... and went to go check it out because how do you say that name?  The first person in initiatory was like that's a hard one not to laugh.... and then the next girl said something that wasn't what we said and we stuck with that one.  Poor girl. 


My favorite of them all. 

Some people in our ward told Chad that he would love Bluey.... they are right.  Snoop is my favorite of the group... 


Senior year was a Pride and Prejudice era... I need to go back and read it and see if I really like it as much as I remember.  

Liv did not understand this one... maybe even after explaining it to her.. but this is me. 

Luke picked out a card just for Chad on his own....



Someone posted this and this is me.... Still. 

Serenading.

We had a ward temple session at 3 so after that we headed over to celebrate Saphira's birthday.

Saphira is 5 and so we went over to play and have cake. 

Chad thought everyone needed a little serenading....

 

He practiced his Book of Mormon stories while there...

and Kyle sang along.... press play.  and don't tell Chad... because "he hates cameras and pressure."  so he has to have this discrete video to document his progress.  Which I might add has not taken him 8 hours a week yet...or total.

Then it was time for cake for the big girl. 

The kids played and played until it was time to go... Saphira cannot be bribed to sleep in her own bed.  We tried. ha.

A Trip to Star.

Luke and I went to Star to see what we could imagine.  
He was disappointed that we were only looking and not buying all the plants.... but it's a good thing we didn't because the crazy wind came after this. 

He thought riding was fun for awhile....


and pushing... 


When we talked with the girls about what we could plant they said grapes.... he was excited to find grapes.

Math and Science Night.

 While Grandma was away on her cruise we thought we'd go visit Grandpa.  Every day after school the kids asked if we could go to see him.... since he was still at work we planned to go over on Thursday before Math and Science night.  Grandpa called and said there was no where to park because they were digging up the road... so we met him at Canes for dinner. 

They were quite thrilled to see he was alive.  Ha.  

After we headed over to the school and went looking around...


Camilla found her guy. 


Luke wanted a picture with her guy too. 



Luke brought his Cane's dog with him... and was so excited to see the animals. That was his favorite part for sure.  



Camilla also found her lantern for Lunar New Year. 



Look you can see the Sphere!


Luke went up and just kept BAK! BAK! BAK!  He thought he was pretty funny trying to scare the chickens. 



Liv found some of her pictures around to show us.
