January

January has been the longest month ever.  We've gotten so much snow!  I honestly can't remember the last time we had this much snow.  A few days ago it snowed 12 inches in a matter of hours.  That being said, I've been a little down this month, I'm definitely looking forward to February.  Rory and I did have a nice little overnight getaway to SLC last weekend.  I bought him Jazz tickets for Christmas, so we went up North and went shopping, ate lots of food, enjoyed a great Jazz game, and soaked in the hot tub at the hotel.  It was a much needed night away.

Connor is still playing basketball for the middle school and he loves it.  He's been super sick with a double ear infection and has been pretty miserable the last few days, but finally went back to school today.  He is doing really well in school.  We just got a postcard from his math teacher saying how much she enjoys having him in her class and how well he's done on his SAGE testing.

Rory took Kadee and Kinlee to the BYU vs Utah gymnastics meet for a daddy daughter date.  They went to the mall and had dinner and window shopped first.  They had so much fun at the meet and the girls have been talking about the great time they had with their dad ever since.

Kadee got another perfect attendance award at school, she hasn't missed one day all year.  I'm super proud of how hard she works in school and on her talents.  She practices piano every morning and has worked so hard on her back hand spring.  

Kinlee lost another tooth and has been reading like crazy.  She keeps leveling up in the leveled library at school and has made so much progress with her reading.  I love to listen to her sing on her karaoke player and she is constantly making up dances in our living room.  

Matthew, like Connor, has been really sick, I swear my kids are always sick this time of year.  Actually, we just found out the poor kid is going to need tubes, he has his appointment with an ENT in a couple weeks.  He also started basketball a couple weeks ago.  He loves it!  He forgets to dribble a lot, but loves to shoot and steal the ball.  Rory and his cousin Eric Branch are coaching them and it is so cute to watch those little 4 and 5 year olds run around.

April and May have been a blur.  We moved into the new house so it's been a very busy time in our lives.  The kids are really enjoying h...
