Farewell to February

We were lucky enough to have Carson, Ashley, Jaxon, Madi, and Ava come for a visit. They brought us dinner and I am still craving that salsa. Super fun to have some extra time with them.
Valentine's Day was great! After helping with Tyler's class party I wanted to go home and throw away the candy I got for them, but I worked so hard to make them cute. (idea straight from Pebbles) Eric spoiled me with roses and a book. Let the Despicable Me quotes continue. Plus, we got so many cards and photographs.

The boys had school off and we went up to Eric's work for the first time and had lunch with him and a tour. The boys are still talking about it and want to go again for a surprise visit.


Here's Trevor's creation for the Blue and Gold Scout Dinner. He did a great job frosting it. The fun part was that the blue frosting leaves a wonderful blue tint to your teeth and lips which Tyler loved.

We made it! We got to a BYU game and it was awesome! You may see more from your own tv but you can't beat all the energy. That place just explodes. There were some amazing shots and a slam dunk.
Favorite conversation from the month.
Trev "Mom, Dad, it is precipitating." We start laughing.
Trev "Why are you guys laughing?"
Me "Well, most people just say, hey it's raining."
Trev "It is precipitating though, and then it is going to evaporate, there will be condensation, and the cycle will continue...he then laughed and started saying it again
Tyler "And this will continue until the earth is destroyed."

Parent Teacher Highlights
Some wonderful comments about Trevor's artistic ability and friendships. Thrilled he has a teacher with a great sense of all the students, their strengths, and even what concerns they have.
Tyler has a great imagination and has no shortage of ideas for stories. When his teacher asked him to tell her his story he did so with enthusiasm and theatrics. She then saw that nothing was written on his paper to which he explained that he had used invisible ink.
Classic.
I could write that I did laundry and made dinner sometimes, but who wants to read about that:)
