March madness

Janessa came up to visit Dad and Mom and to see their new house.  We were fortunate enough to go to City Creek with her and Temple Square.  We had so much fun together.  I think I will see a lot more family with Dad and Mom living in Utah:).  (Parker with Jazz shirt and Carter with Nike sweater).

I don't think I have been able to see Adam for his birthday since he was a small kid.  It was fun to go up to Dad and Mom's house to celebrate.  All of the family from around here were able to come along with Janessa.  It was so fun to see everybody. (Glad he got a haircut shortly after this:)

Byron and I were able to have a very quick trip for family business while Dad and Mom graciously watched the youngest kids.  We loved being able to spend so much time with family since we flew with Jeff, Eric and Melissa.  Then we rented a vehicle to drive a couple of hours.  We had to laugh so hard as we finally found the car that we had rented.  It was so tiny that we definitely could not all fit in including our luggage.  Luckily Byron went back and was able to get something that fit us better.  It was still tight, but not as bad as it would have been.  The conversations during that trip were so fun.  I felt like a lucky person eaves dropping into Beck stories of their childhood.  We laughed so hard.  What a great family Byron has been blessed to have!  I feel so lucky to be a part of it also.

 I had to take a picture of this from the hotel we were staying at.  Last year when we were heading to the Adamson Reunion in Oregon, Byron put a hard boiled egg that was cold into the microwave and it did indeed explode all over the table and himself.  Byron and I laughed so hard when we saw this.

 Parker, Bradley and Carter enjoying Grandpa and Grandma's house.  They loved playing on their swing set while Byron and I were gone.

Byron has quite the view from the NuSkin building of the progress of the new Provo Temple.  He also has been parking in the same underground parking spot for the past 10 years or so.  He was able to say goodbye as the parking structure will be torn down to make room for a more appealing area next to the temple and NuSkin.  The church ended up asking NuSkin to tear it down since it will won't be a very pretty view.  So now Byron has to walk to another parking area which takes him about 15 minutes.  He will be so excited when all of the construction is done.

The parking garage demolished. 

 Camille performing with Encore at a concert.

This was Camille's Spring Concert.  We were fortunate enough to have both sets of Grandparents attend.  Camille did such a fabulous job.

 

 We had fun going to Trafalga with the kids for FHE.  Everybody had some money that could be used for tickets.  We had so much fun playing games.  The kids all had a great time. (Carter in red)

I thought Parker and Carter were building a hole to China.  They spent so much time outside once the weather started getting nice.  They weren't happy when I made them finally fill it in, but had fun while it lasted.

 

 Some beautiful snow.  We live in such a beautiful place to enjoy winter.

Carter and Parker got so many activities pins along with their Webelos badge.  They had been working hard and have such amazing leaders - Shamae Mickelson and Becki Wilcox.

These are two pictures Mom took.  I love how they have deer behind their house.  Dad talks about these deer probably every time we go up there.  Cute Bradley enjoying their backyard.

 

Tanner has had an amazing team this year in Arsenal.  His coach is Scott Hazard.  The fall season was a little rocky, but boy did they take off in the spring.  They were on fire and played so well.  Too bad they wouldn't be playing one more season together just when they finally got it all figured out.

 

Cute Bradley loves having his buddy, Logan Lane, come over every day after school.  They play so well together.  Logan got Bradley into the Skylanders and probably every day Logan asks for me to print out one for him.  Some days I wish I could be 6 again.
