Blaze Game

I know the Utah Blaze Mascot and he got us tickets to their season opener. David Archuleta performed at half time. Max loved it. He was jammin, but got a little shy once I started the camera. London likes to dance to a bunch of songs. She was going crazy, but she was also a little shy with the camera. She did it at first, but wouldn't after that.


Mashed Potatoes

We recently had a ward game night. They had a Wii game called "Just Dance". It was so fun to play and to watch. Fortunately I remembered my camera was in my car when two members of the bishopric and their wives got up to play the game. My Dad and Mom and our neighbors danced to a few dances, but Shane caught them on tape with Mashed Potato. Hope you'll enjoy watching...especially if you are in the ward.

Spring Activities

With nicer weather (unlike this week) we went to the zoo, the aquarium and the park. Here are some pictures from those trips.






Vegas Baby

For Aidan's birthday we surprised him with tickets to the last game of the Mountain West Conference Basketball Championship. The game was in Vegas so we just had to go. It was also a good chance to show Alex another part of the United States. We didn't tell Aidan or Andrew that we were going. They came home from school and we had them get in the van and gave Aidan an envelope that said "Happy Birthday". Inside were the tickets. He was so excited he jumped out of the van and hugged his Dad. We went down after school on Friday the 12th and stayed until Sunday the 14th of March. The first night we just hung out and went to some of the sites. On Saturday morning we did some more exploring and then went swimming. After swimming we took Aidan and Shane to the game and the rest of us went to "The Secret Garden". This is at the Mirage and is animals and dolphins. They are well taken care of and beautiful animals, don't get me wrong, but I remember the first time we went thinking it was over-priced. This time I went wanting to see if I felt the same...I did. Too much for too little. After the animals we picked up Shane and Aidan and ate at a buffet before returning to our hotel. It was a quick and fun trip.













Playing Carch Up

It has been way too long since I posted. Part of the problem has been my computer. It has something wrong with the card reader. Well, I finally got all my pictures onto the computer and I am hoping that with my new camera I will have more success... that is when I get it.
Anyway, I thought I should show you some of the things we have been doing the last month or two. Here is Max in his Easter clothes. London is not in hers here, but this is her looking cute on a Sunday before church.

Butterflies


Max saw a commercial today for a Live Butterfly Garden. He listened intently all about it. Then he excitedly said, "Mom, we can get a butterfly garden and you can see it in its RACCOON!"


So cute!
