Activity Days Camp

Some of the Beehives in the ward are desperately working to earn their YW medallion before the program changes at the end of the year. They decided to throw an Activity Days Camp to get some of their goals passed off and my girls LOVED it! Melanie doesn't turn 8 until next year but they were nice enough to let her come and Audrey was able to get to know the beehives better before she joins them in January. They were there Friday night and most of Saturday. I loved hearing how much fun they had and am glad they are building bonds with the girls in the ward.

While they were gone Brandon and I were able to hang out and get some pizza together. There is this place called Mod Pizza down the street we had never tried so thought we would check it out and it's pretty cool! It's like a Subway for pizza, you get to pick any topics you want and they cook it right up for you. We were fans! And I'm always a fan of hanging out with this dude.

Happy New Year!

We thought we’d bring some new energy to 2021 by completely tearing our house apart and getting our carpets cleaned. The cleaners were scheduled for December 30th, so we pulled everything out of bedrooms and gave the walls and baseboards a good scrub. In order to allow the carpets time to dry we didn’t want to walk on them so we used Elliott’s points and got a hotel up in the Woodlands. We stayed at the Marriott along the waterway and it was beautiful. There ended up being a storm that night which was unfortunate because we weren’t able to walk down the waterway and enjoy the whole scene up there. We ordered Shake Shack from Uber Eats and watched Hook all snuggled up in our beds. It was a perfect evening. Once we returned home we got to work putting bedrooms back together then later that night celebrated the new year! It’s become tradition for us to do taste tests with the kids blindfolded. We did different flavored oreo’s and ice drinks. We ordered Buffalo Wild Wings and wa...

Good Morning

Our kids don't sleep in. If they make it past 6:30 it's an extremely rare occasion. The problem with this is that Pete and I are not exactly morning folk. We make goals that say we will be in bed before 10pm, but after a week or so we are back to staying up way to late. Having Netflix is not helping either. We love watching documentaries and could watch them all night long. Every morning looks a little something like this. Our kids full of energy and ready to conquer the day, while Pete and I are wanting to kill ourselves.

Summer Movies

We've been having a great time going to the Summer Movie Fun at Harkins. It's super cheap and a nice way to get out of the house to do something. I didn't know what to expect with my kids, but it has worked out perfectly. Other than Audrey having to go potty 3 times EVERY movie she sits really well through them. Brandon normally takes his nap and it's a very enjoyable time.
