April

Brian and I went to the Saturday morning session of conference. We were there for the Solemn Assembly where we sustained President Dallin H. Oaks as our prophet.  We were able to tour the new Lindon Temple. Tooth fairy notes, sleepy boys, Easter eggs, phone filters. Sadie had so much fun at Prom with Owen.

March 2026:

Grandma Terry turned 80! We celebrated with dinner at Tiffany's. My mom is the best! She doesn't look or act like she is 80. She walks early every morning and stays active and always has a full social calendar. We all love her so much. We had more dance competitions, Sadie got asked to prom by her friend, Owen, Ava had her Broadway Kids performance at the school, and spring is coming! Finn had a birthday, he turned 13!  apparently I took zero pictures from Finn's birthday!? He had a fun party with friends. We reserved the church building and had 9 square, Gaga ball, and indoor soccer with lots of friends. It is crazy to think he is 13. Finn is a smart, talented, kind kid. We love him mucho! (Even if he finds bugging his sisters to be a favorite pass time!) Grandpa Bruce was called as Stake Patriarch. All of his kids and their spouses (except Brian Cooper)were able to be there when he was set apart. What a neat experience that was and we are excited that our kids should have the opportunity to receive their blessings from Grandpa. 

 

January/February 2026

 

January highlights: 

We brought a giant Lowe's bucket to the theater for their fill any size bucket with popcorn. Sadie chopped lots of her hair off! Finn's soccer team took 1st in their indoor season. Finn was MVP in one of his games. Sadie got her permit! After her first attempt where she didn't pass I practically had to drag her in to take it again, and she did it! Now we are trying to clock in all of the driving hours.

February: 

Ava made a cute Valentines Day box. We went to St. George for the Rage tournament. Liv got baptized! We were so happy to celebrate with her. Sadie gave the talk at her baptism and Ava got to be a witness. Sadie got to meet Emily Belle Freeman, the YW General President at a Seminary morning side. She even got a picture with her because she knows she is one of my favorites. Sadie had a dance competition, her team did a great job.
