Happy 41st Birthday, Dave!

 Oh yes, he did!  41 came in big and left big too!  On Friday night, we met at Pizza Pie Cafe for dinner with Dave's parents and sisters.  Yummy!  After dinner, we hung out at our home, listened to cousin Carson read an original story he wrote and enjoyed some family time.

The next night, we went out to Tepanyakis with our friends for dinner.  They all continue to KILL me!  We laughed and laughed about stories (most revolving around Dana) and ate the most delicious cuisine!  Here are some pictures from our evening:

Taylor's 6th Grade Class learns Shakespeare

 All of the 6th grade classes at Taylor's elementary school have been studying Shakespeare this school year.  We were invited to their abridged version of the play, "As You Like It."  Taylor was adorable.  Both Dave and I commented on how her confidence has grown over the past several years.  It makes us proud of her and her growth.

SOS: Save Our Sportler!

 A few weeks ago, my brother, Jeff, talked Dave on going on a long distance bike ride.  About 9 miles into it, Dave's tire popped!  I got a call that he was stranded clear past Eagle Mountain and to go get him.  45 minutes later, as we pulled off the road, the van went from load to silent upon seeing Dave in his spandex and popped bike tire.  Better luck next time, Dave!

Hippity, Hoppity, Easter is on its way!

 Happiness EVERYWHERE when this little girl smiles!

 This is sooooo true!

Momma's BFF (or so she tells me)!

Reading at barely 4--Alyssa takes off!

Watching Alyssa grow and develop has been a joy for us.  Julie has worked hard to get the pre-schoolers reading this year.  We have been shocked at Alyssa's progression and are grateful for Julie and her talents. 

Let's Eat Raclette!

 We had Molly, Dana and Yolanda and their families over for Raclette. It was Molly's first experience eating the creamy, melted cheese on potatoes....and she LOVED it!  The kids too.  We also finally got the picture of the the DuJardin twins and Alyssa in their matching PJs.  It was a fun night filled with laughter and stories.  Love our neighbors!
