catching up is hard to do

I haven't blogged in over a year but I really do want to make this a space where I can journal more. I am going to do a few very long posts to try to catch up. I can probably finish 2019 in this post and then do one REAAAAAALLLLLY long post for 2020. We will see how this goes.

Dave and I celebrated 20 years of marriage. I can't believe it has been twenty years. It doesn't seem like that much time. We wanted to do something fun and thought going to Paris was a good idea. I found great deals and so we thought it would be great to take the kids. We surprised them with a trip to Paris for Christmas and were planning to go for Spring Break but then COVID hit. We are still waiting for things to open up but will someday take our kids to Paris. We love celebrating our anniversary with our kids.

One of the things on our Vegas bucket list was Valley of Fire State Park. This place is beautiful. It reminds me so much of Southern Utah. I am not sure why we don't spend more time out there.

Rare moment of all three of them watching TV at the same time together. I love them.

Grammy and Grandad helped Clara roller skate on these old fashioned roller skates.

I was so proud of the girls who worked really really hard to earn their medallion in one year. They knew the program would be changing and so they really wanted to earn the medallion. Along with their Beehive class they worked all year earning goals. This included a sleepover at our house to read the Book of Mormon. I am so proud of them and their hard work. They are determined little ladies.

These girls are a blessing to our family. Such a great group of friends.

I am not sure what this is all about but Mrs. Rogers is there so we are happy about it.

We ate breakfast at Magleby's on gameday and ran into one of our favorite former Cougars, Jamal Williams.

The kids found the lettermans jackets. They thought these were the coolest things ever.

We watched Colton Bennion who plays for Idaho State come and play agains BYU. He is one of Dave's former young men. IT was so fun to see him.

I was able to take mom and dad to NFR. Dad had always wanted to go to NFR. The stars aligned and I was able to take them. It was so much fun. This rodeo is no frills. It is all business.

Cameron got his eagle scout. This was a ton of hard work and persistence. I was proud of Cameron for pushing through and earning this great accomplishment.

Brooke Adair, Ben and Kenny Talbott.

He earned it with a good friend, Caleb Drewes.

Brandon Debrandon read the oath of the Eagle.

We have really missed the live nativity that used to be put on by the church. This year we went to see it at the Baptist church. It was very well done. I am sure we will go back.
