Recent Happenings

- Traveled through southern Utah this Tuesday all the way to Blanding and then back up to Moab to spend the night at the Ramada Inn.  Much nicer than Motel 6 of course.  I might just have to stick with them from here on out.  I enjoyed the hot tub, the shampoo, conditioner, soaps, lotions, iron, and feather pillows.  Not to mention their big screen TV.  The scenery was gorgeous.  I especially liked the red rock view with the snow capped blue tinted mountains in the back ground.

- Went ice skating last Saturday with the our kids and some of the Morse's.  The kids had a blast.  At least after they caught the hang of it.  At first they were hanging on to the outer walls and looked very uncoordinated as they slipped with every step.  It didn't take long though before they were on their own and enjoying the experience.  It helped to have orange construction cones that they held and slid in front of them as they skated.  What an ingenious idea.

- We attended Rose and Ty's teacher conferences and Rose is doing great.  She's improved in almost every area.  She just needs to work on turning in her assignments.  She's in 3rd grade BTW.  Ty however is still behind on spelling and reading but he's doing excellent in math.  Now I just need to stay on top of his reading every night and keep practicing his spelling with him.
