Snowblast

Abi decided to go to the Snowblast at Snow College this weekend.  It is an overnight stay that orients potential students about Snow College.  Brooke and I drove her down and stayed overnight while she did the blast thing.  They met in the Badger Den (I think) and then separated into groups.











Brooke is showing that she is in that Picture from Native American Club from a year ago when she was at Snow and it is still on display in the Badger den!


Brooke sneaking in her old apartment to take a snapchat and she sees the only TWO people she knew still at SNOW.  


While Abi was snowblasting, Brooke and I decided to do something physical.  We hiked to the S on the mountain.  I thought since it is Snow college and it is a small school hiking would be similar.  I was totally wrong...It was steep. I never thought I would make it, let a lone make it down.  However, with Brooke's help, I survived!!  It was a beautiful night and fun.





















After our Hike we ended up at Ray's pizza.  It was fabulous.  Pizza, salad and bread!  Then off the Walmart and our Hotel.  We stayed at the Horseshoe Mountain Lodge in Mount Pleasant.




We picked up Abi the following day and took some pics at the Snow Sign.  








Super fun weekend getaway.  Love Ephraim and Love Snow.  I think everyone should go to Snow!  Abi is only a Junior in High School so who knows what next year will bring!  

My favorite part about the whole trip is when Andrew said he didn't even know that I was gone or he would have stayed out later on Friday night!!

New Glasses, 21, and a lost tooth

Brooke turned 21 April 2.  Of course I will say I can't believe it has been 21 years that she was in the ICU and I didn't think she would survive.  It was traumatizing to everyone.  But she did survive and continues to make us laugh and keep us entertained.  She wants to be a zookeeper so maybe she will be in charge of the Lion exhibit at Utah's Hogle Zoo sometime...




Here is Brooke taking a nap.


Andrew got some new glasses at the Costco.  He thought he needed them for his trip to California with the Choir.  



And Jack decided to lose a tooth.  I am not a big fan of the no shirt look but he was in bed when he pulled it out.  




We also had our favorite dinner tonight.  Sweet and Sour Chicken.  Everyone eats this which is kindof odd.  This is compliments of my friend Rebecca Beck!  


Spring Break 2017

So, here is my to do list for spring Break.






as you can see, I only got a few things crossed off.  

However, I did get some golf in.  Nick and I played golf in Rose park.  I killed it!  It was sooo cold.  Nick is sitting in the golf cart with his blanket it was that cold.  Didn't stop him having a drink however.











Tuesday is 5.00 night at the movies, so Nick and I went to see Beauty and the Beast.  No one else wanted to go.  No one else wanted to play golf either.  Jack stayed home alone.  



This is the best pic.  I forgot to take one before the lights went out!  It was soo good.  Loved every minute of it.  Nick even ate all the popcorn.  Imagine.  And the refill.


We had to much fun Playing golf on tuesday, we decided to play again on Wednesday.  It was a beautiful day and much warmer!!




Having a little lunch at Chik Fil A after a tiring day of golf !!!
I'm so glad Nick was ready to party!  Jack didn't want to go again this day either.  Abi didn't either but she played golf with her friend Adam at Eaglewood.  Nick and I went to Fore Lakes.  It was men's association day everywhere, so we played on the par 3 side.



Wed night I bonded with my buds at Texas Roadhouse.  They went to visit a friend in a resthome that had a stroke a while back.  I wasn't buds with her so I didn't go.  I decided to just bond with them after


Another thing I had to do is take my dad to the DMV and surrender his Drivers License and get an ID card.  His Drivers License was expiring in June.  He has to have a Dr signature and an eye test to get a Driver License.  He would never pass it, and he hasn't driven for over a year or so.  We would have just let his license expire.  But you need an ID if you go to the hospital or a Dr.  So thats what we did.  It makes me sad.  


Here we are waiting for our turn.  He turns 84 in June.  


We did go to Chik Fil A again.  

Thursday night we went to Pioneer Memorial Theater.  We saw King Charles III.  It was okay.  Here is Marlena waiting in the lobby as we get there before it starts.  



Here is Abi getting us a treat!!  


It was about the Royal Family and what could happen when Charles becomes King. 
 I would rate it a 5.  


I did get one nap in and one episode of Judge Judy which is my favorite.  


Friday brought another Golf Game. This time with Michelle.  It was super windy and we almost changed our minds.  But we did it anyway, and it was so fun.  We also went to the par 3 because the executive course side was having a Polynesian males league.  I was also on Fire this day.  almost a hole in one. Of course.  We actually walked the course this time.  





We went to La Puenta after.  Michelle is in the bathroom in this pic.  


Also went to the gym every day.  So proud of myself.  Even was a bit sore.  I don't  lose weight but maybe I am slowing the gain,




Andrew spent the week on his Choir trip in Southern California.  He said it was the best week of his life.  So glad he got to go.

Bonneville and Park City LAX

Andrew played Bonneville and Park City in LAX this week.  It was two nights in a row.  It was cold and rainy but Abi and Maureen stayed for the game.  We are die hard LAX fans. Some of the playes were soo muddy.  It was wet.   I think they lost both games, but there was lots of running and Andrew had to go in the penalty box for slashing.  He had to sit out for two minutes a few times...
