We survived January and February. The worst months of the year if you ask me.
Silly snuggles with my Lyla girl
two pizza chefs....
We decorated come follow me journals. They turned out super cute! Hopefully we will get some good use out of them this year as we study the New Testament.
Ava was awarded the wildcat of the month for 'Living to learn'.
We are so proud of this girl and her hard work. I want to be like Ava when I grown up.
Sadie had her winter dance recital. She did a great job and had lots of people come to support her.
We went to visit Grandma and Grandpa Taggart and it turned into a sleepover for Sadie, Finn, and Ava. They had such a great time! They always have fun with Grandma and Grandpa.
Brian and Finn finished this puzzle that Finn got for Christmas. It was a tricky one and took them a good month to finish it.
Tiffany painted Lyla and Liv's faces and they did dress up. These girls are just always happy to play together.
This is the view from our back deck. Same mountain, 3 different mornings....
Family dinner at Grandma and Grandpa Taggart's. We did breakfast and it was delicious, and we always have fun when we all get together.
We usually meet Tiffany and her girls at the library for Storytime. Here are these cute girls with their snowman crafts.
Cute best cousins...
Finn and Benny built a giant fort.
Ava got this quilt tying quilt for Christmas and she finished it up. It turned out cute.
Crazy hair day. This was Ava's idea...
How is this girl getting/looking so big?
My new air freshener. It makes me happy.
We attended the service/game night at the elementary school.
Be the I in Kind....
We were able to go see Lily in her school's play, "The Little Mermaid" She did a great job, and it was fun to watch.
These two cousins are too silly! only 9 months apart but Sadie can hold her like a baby.
Ava has been working to earn a lunch date out from school. She filled up her sticker chart by being a happy/good helper getting ready in the mornings.
Lyla art..
I love her drawing of Rapunzel. She even remembered the frying pan.
Grandma Claudia gave Ava her own New Testament to mark up and she has been busy working on it.
When the preschool fieldtrip to the museum becomes a fire engine field trip too. A little kid pulled the fire alarm at the museum, so we got a visit from the fire department too. 2 for 1.
For activity day we heart attacked the bishopric and made these cute art projects.
Lyla's cute school work..
These two thrifting queens hit up the DI together.

The Groundhog saw his shadow, looks like 6 more weeks of winter. I loved Ava's cute drawing of the groundhog.
Ava created a little reading corner in her room, I loved this sign she made.
I helped in Finn's class for their Valentine's day party.
Two cute love bugs on Valentine's day.
Finn made his Valentine's box at Benny's house.

Ava drew Finn..
Oliver loves it when the sun comes out, because that means the humans do too.
Lyla fell asleep "reading"
We had no school on President's Day so we headed to the SeaQuest aquarium in Layton. We met up with the Meldrums. It was an interesting little place. They kids had fun.
I loved the stingray cute faces.
It was very hands on, the kids got to feed the fish and animals.
Uncle Dave and Aunt Camie gave the kids Walmart gift cards for Christmas, here is what they picked out...
We got hit hard by a big winter storm. We ended up with 2 virtual learning days!
My idea of a good snow day....
After being cooped up for a few days with all the snow we were ready to get out of the house. We headed to Thanksgiving Point Curiosity museum with Trisha and Benny Gourley.
Aunt Andrea invited us over for a girls night out. We made homemade pretzels, watched Tangled, and had fun visiting and laughing.
Finn had his final indoor soccer game. He got to play with his outdoor team and they crushed the competition every single game. Hopefully we cant get them more evenly matched.
