I Get To Brag A Little!

So a few months ago the Daily Herald did a survey for the best of Utah County. For the 4th year in a row Crawford/Leishman Dental won best Dentist!!!! As many of you know I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to computers, I couldn't figure out how to get this on my blog until now, Way to go Chris and Rick !!!!

Girrl Scout Cookies

It's that time of year again!!! I only ordered 4 boxes of cookies from a little friend in the ward. She dropped them off as Rick and I were leaving to go out, when we came home only 2 boxes were left. I guess it's better the kids eat them instead of me!

FOR SALE!!!!

That's right our little house is for sale, we are excited and sad. We've love all our friends in our neighborhood, I know it will be hard to go, but we have so out grown this one. We're looking at a house in Orem, so we'll see. We hope it works out!

Swim, Bike, Run

About a month ago my friend Sandy and I signed up for the TriUtah Women of Steel Triathlon! We thought this was a good first time triathlon to do because it's a pool swim, no way would I swim in Utah lake! Maybe this is why I've been so lazy about blogging, I spend most mornings at Golds Gym. I have to say we have two of the best supporters, Ellie and Andrew. Just about every morning on our way Ellie asks me if today is the race, It makes me smile, they have been great troopers, only 11 weeks to go!

Hansel & Gretel

Saturday night my mom got all the girls tickets to go to the Ballet Hansel & Gretel. I forgot to tell the girls there was no talking only dancing, so they were a little confused at first. They did have some singing, however it was in German so that even confused them more but they loved it. Ellie would not stop dancing, she even came home and put her dance clothes on to go to bed.

St. George

It was our 11 year anniversary, nothing too exciting was going on and the kids didn't have school last Friday or Monday, so we headed down to St. George for the long weekend. It was Tysen and Chris's first family vacation since the twins were born. It's crazy how outnumbered we are now with 7 kids to 4 adults, good thing Shaley came along! It was so good to get out of the snow, I think it was like 55 degrees outside, but the kids thought it was the middle of the summer, because they didn't have to wear their coats.

The condo is a little out dated when it comes to the decor, but we love it, one thing the kids fight over are all the silly cups. I don't know why but they call them the fancy cups. This is Andrew showing me the "boy fancy cup" I guess because it's blue?

We swam and one thing everyone will agree on is that we all need a good tan!

I thought this was so funny. Because we don't have many spring or summer clothes and I got rid of all the flip flops at the end of last year Ellie wore her boots to the swimming pool, nice look!

Science Fair

The Science Fair was last week at school. The Girls decideed they wanted to do it, but not together because then they would have to share the ribbons. (Thats what Madi told me) Mazie was set on a Taste Test. It was cute she got everything ready and had all the family down to try it out. She even took the project on the road to Dad's office. Much to our surprise even the most experienced soda drinkers could'nt taste the difference between Coke, Pepsi, and Shasta Cola.

Madi's project was named "How to get an egg in a bottle" It was all about high and low pressure, she and Rick worked hard on it and they did a great job!

The kids had fun at school telling the judges all about their project, I think the most important thing to them was all those ribbons they came home with.
