What a week!

My mom and dad came to visit this past week from Boise. It was so much fun having them here. The kids had a lot of special things going on during the week. It was great to have grandma and grandpa around to see them all. Here is some of what we did.


Mom, Steve, Alec, and I went to the temple to do Baptisms for my mom's parents, and both sets of grandparents. It was a wonderful...thanks dad for watching the girls.



Alec had a Court of Honor where he received his Star ranking. He is well on his way to getting his Eagle before he turns 15. Since Steve couldn't get out of the office during the day, Alec was Grandpa's golfing buddy.


"Witch Doctor"

"Rock'n Roll is Here to Stay"

Rachel's 4th grade class put on a music production called "Rock'n Roll is Here to Stay". It was all about the 50's music and singers and the history that help shape music today. Rachel was part of the "Jail House Rock" by Elvis Presley number and the "Witch Doctor" number too. It was so cute! She knew every word to sing and move to make. What was so impressive was that there was no adult help behind the stage. They were on their own. They were incharge of all costume changes and set changes on their own. Plus get out on stage on time. Mrs. Holcomb, their teacher, sat out in the audience and watched. Rachel also had an indoor soccer game that Grandma got to see. They are always fun and exciting to see.

Amy got to spend the most time with Grandma and Grandpa. Ballet class was Grandma favorite.

After both Court of Honor and the Musical...we celebrated at Cold Stone.

Fun. It's always great to have parents in town. It seems that they come ready to play and give parents a much needed break from reality.
