Emojis

I'll bet you can guess which one of us cut these emoji smiles out. He got a mom AND a brother to play along this time-score!

Friendship Bracelets

Jake made us all friendship bracelets (even one for himself because, "I'm a great kid too!"), and I had to take a picture. 

Hacked

Sometimes I find pictures on my phone that I certainly didn't take, but thoroughly enjoy.

Happy 14th

We have two amazing fourteen-year-olds! I really appreciate that these two have both transitioned into their teenage years so gracefully. They are loving and respectful, enjoy doing things with us still, and are so much fun. We love Logan and Ali!

It fits!

Logan managed to squeeze into Jake's coat!

Deacon

This handsome Deacon does a great job passing the sacrament each week.

Snow

We actually didn't get tons of snow this winter, so it was enjoyed (by the kids!) each time it came. Eli usually went out too, and sometimes Logan would invite Jake to go out; having a little brother means you can do "little kid" things a little longer than you might otherwise, as long as you're doing it "for them."

Turtle

Me, doing yoga. Jake, saying I look like a turtle, and doing the pose so I can see he's right.

Remote Days

Having remote learning plans in place means no more snow or cold days; if the weather is expected to be too bad, they just call a remote day. At least we're pros at this by now.

Eli's Sub

I finally got to be Eli's sub (just for math). He took it all in stride, like this chill kid usually does.
