Hayley

Now that we live in Utah, that means I'm close to Hayley. She's an hour southwest, but we decided we'd meet once a month for dinner. Bountiful is right in the middle of us, so we met there at a restaurant last night. It is seamless talking with her; we just totally get each other, and we are always on the same wavelength. It probably comes from knowing each other since we were Georgey's age, and having a million shared experiences and surroundings in our upbringing. But anyway, whatever it is, I love it.

it's warm outside

By that I mean like upper 40s. But warm enough that we don't feel like we need our winter coats, and warm enough that the kids had an impromptu running race with the Gruas. Here's a video: http://instagram.com/p/kQMzSmBJpN/

stained glass

Aunt Cathy sent the kids a belated Christmas package. George and Penelope got books, so we read those. Olive and Lucy got this little stained glass kit. It was a fun craft for them today!


Getting Ready for the Olympics

Yesterday we talked about what the Olympics are, and made a craft.  Chris taught them, "This is one of the ways we show the world our country is better than everyone else's." We'll be watching events with them, and cheering on Team USA!

girls' day

Olive, Lucy and I had a fun girls' day today. First, we went to Lucy's preschool field trip at the library. We read Valentine's books, sang songs, and made a craft. Then we had lunch. And then we went to the Frozen sing-along at the movie theater. I do adore my girls!!
