March Madness 2011

If you have followed the NCAA Men's Basketball tournament this year you know that it truly was "March Madness." There were a lot of upsets and none of the #1 seeds are going to the Final 4! We all filled out our brackets as usual and Sarah is doing awesome. She has three of the Final 4 teams. The rest of us have no teams left, so we declare her the winner. She gets to choose where the family will go out to dinner. She says she will go to Chick-fil-A

The scores as of Sunday, March 27 are:

Sarah - 79
Braden - 55
Dad - 50
Tyler - 49
Mom - 42

This is one of Sarah's new dresses for spring. It snowed, so she had to wear it with a long sleeve shirt! I think she looks great in that color!

Braden wearing his new tie!

Tyler with his new tie!

We were taking pictures of Tyler for an invitation for his baptism and the other kids wanted to have their pictures take also! I think they are a pretty cute bunch, I may be a little biased though!

China Hutch

Saturday, March 19, 2011

I have been wanting to get a china hutch for a while now. I went and looked and just couldn't find one I liked. My friend Marcy told me to check KSL. After looking for two days I found one in Roy and went and looked at it. It was just what I wanted. The lady that was selling it was moving to Las Vegas and sold it to me for $150. I have had my China in a box since my Grandma Peg died five year ago. I couldn't even remember what it looked like! I washed and dried each piece and put it in. I thought it would also be fun to display my collection of salt and pepper shakers. I am so excited! I can't wait for a special occasion to use the dishes!

Tyler is helpful, kind, loving, a good reader and a great friend. He is a good boy and always tries to choose the right! We love you Tyler! Happy 8th Birthday!
