Winter Recess Fun

Today is our first day of Winter Recess. After running a few errands and going to Golden Spoon, we baked cookies to correspond with our family home evening lesson tonight.

Connor's First Recital

Connor had his first piano recital Saturday afternoon. He played "Jingle Bells" -- and he did it perfectly.

Merry Christmas

Connor's Baptism

Connor was baptized this morning. Our dearest friends and family were all there to share his special day! We are so proud of him.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Fun and Games

We had snow on the ground and nothing much to do today (a rare thing for a Saturday afternoon), so we decided to play JENGA -- Connor got it from one of his friends at his birthday party. The boys picked it up very quickly and I was the constant loser. I cherish these moments of fun -- something as simple as playing games with my three favorite guys!

Ian Wins First Art Contest

Ian won 2nd place in the visual arts division of Draper Elementary's Reflections contest. He now advances to the district-level of competition. He loves art and really has a talent for it. We are so proud of him! His best friend, Ethan, won first place in the photography division.
