I had a great weekend with Seth and Emily at BYU-Idaho for Mother's weekend. We went out to eat and the movies and out to eat again. Emily and I went to listen to some speakers on different subjects. We all went to a piano concert one night. After spending time with Seth and Emily I traveled to visit my brothers on the way home. We had fun on the front lawn at Steve's house. It is fun to take pictures of the kids. My Mom and Dad just got off their mission and were visiting all the kids and grandkids. I had fun visiting the home show in Utah with Steve, Adam and my parents. I love getting decorating ideas!

Easter, Weddings, Birthdays, Disney and More!

OK, So I skipped a month!  Life goes on.  Here are some highlights!

California Adventure! 
I might actually be getting a little sick of Disneyland and Cal. Adventure.  
We will wait a couple of years to get season passes again.



Craig turns 48!! I even got his mother's recipe for lemon meringue pie.  
I don't know if it was exactly like his Mom's.  Real close though.
Wendy still running! Best 2 mile this season...12:29.
Presenting... Mr. and Mrs. John and Natalie Moore. My niece had a beautiful wedding. 
We are excited for them both.


Amazing! No bunny ears in this picture. Seth finally cooperated.
Easter Sunday! 



Visit to the Redlands, CA Temple.

Emily's 19th Birthday!

Abbey's Piano Award

Good Job Abbey!  She finished her level 5 in the State of California Certificate of Merit testing and was asked to go to a special branch honors recital.  She played "Forever Friends" by Robert Vandall.

Sand,Sand,Sand Dunes!!!!















The kids and I had the opportunity to go camping with our church youth group to Kelso Sand Dunes.  One of the most fun places on earth, if you don't mind flushing sand out of your ears when you get home!

We had a great time visiting family in Utah this past week! I met my new niece, Kennady Mae Decker. She was born on February 5th, 2009.  Their household was ready for some femininity genes.  She is darling and she will be spoiled I'm sure!! Girls are supposed to be spoiled! 
We stayed with Craig's mother. The reason for our trip in the middle of February was so that Seth could see everyone he hasn't seen since he got back from his mission.  Unfortunately, Wendy and Abbey had quite abit of homework to catch up on!  Skiing, Homework, it's a toss up, right?  We had some very winter weather, at least a foot of powder, and some great sunny weather to ski in.  Singstar seems to be one of our new family favorites.  We played with the Wright family the first night we arrived.  It was fun to meet Natalie's fiance, John and Jason's fiance, Dana.  They are great singers!
Grandma Roberts took us to lunch, she loves us. Scott and Kathie had us over for dinner and we celebrated Nick's Birthday and watched Ratatouille in their new cinema room.  Awesome! We drove up to Logan to have dinner with Ronda and Mike.  We saw their new remodel and experienced their new theatre set-up.  Seth thinks technology really sped up while he was gone. He can't believe everyone has flat screens and Projectors now.  We are extremely spoiled aren't we?
We did have one small mishap on the way home from Ronda's.  A sheriffs car passed us on the freeway and kicked up a rock and blew out a hole in the drivers side back window.  Seth was sitting there peacefully and then, pow!  We stopped at a gas station and tried to temporarily fix it with some cardboard.  It looked real classy!!!  Too bad we couldn't give that sheriff a ticket! We luckily got it fixed before we drove back to California, but Seth had to hold the cardboard in, on the way home from skiing, so that it wouldn't get sucked out.  He even cut his finger. No bandaid was required!  He's tough!
