Nice hat, dude!

Kevin has really enjoyed being in Mrs. Bingham's class this year. I don't think it's because she is a fabulous teacher, but because she allows the kids to crochet when their work is done. The twins have been crocheting since they were 8, so this was a welcome surprise for Kevin. He loves to show the kids in his class what he is working on. Some of the kids will ask him to help them with their projects. These hats are one of the many things Kevin has crocheted in class this year!

St. George

There's nothing like a good weekend stay in St. George (73 degrees) to really get spring fever in your blood! Mark had a planning conference in St. george last weekend and with gas and hotel paid for, we left Wednesday and made it a family trip. The boys and I had a great time visiting old friends (Brigham Young had some good advice to share) and fun parks. We even stayed in Zion's one night and hiked the Upper Emerald Pools ( a 1 1/2 hour hike). Mark's brother David and his family joined us and we hiked the Riverwalk trail with their 2 little girls. When we got home to Brigham City all the snow we had on the ground the previous week had melted! It made coming home easier. Of course, I always tell Mark, "Home is where the heart is!"

Christmas

O.k. this is going to sound crazy, but I'm just going to throw it out there! I am already looking into gathering Christmas gifts for 2009. But I can't figure out who we have for Christmas on the Bradley side. If anyone reading this, knows who we might have, please let me know. I also want to say we have Julie this year on my side, is that right? I'll figure it out eventually.

I would also like to start a movie reccomendation list that we can follow. Our family is a big movie watching family. We like to see good wholesome movies. If anyone has seen a movie they like or heard of one please add it to our list. Last night we watched the movie Kit Kittridge. It was a very good and powerful family movie, especially for this day & age. Another movie that is coming out this month that Mark and I saw in the theatre was Forever Strong. We can't wait to buy it. Very good message.

Happy Birthday Mark!

Mark was not too happy about turning 37! Hence the knife stabbing the cream pie! But then he realized he was getting gifts and didn't mind it so much. The problem is, now we have to wait for the snow to melt to enjoy the new Bocce set!

Spring Fever?

I think it is hard to believe that we are still having winter storms pound us like this past Tuesday, when in St. George we were used to seeing blossems on the trees this time of year! The boys don't seem to mind the snow and are still enjoying their daily 2 block walk to school everymorning, even when it is snowing they don't want me to drive them!

Valentine's Day in grade school

For Vaentine's Day Caleb's class had a box decorating contest. He didn't win, but I think he should of gotten 1st place with this charming box!!!

Housework

We are trying to update our home from the 80's by taking down wallpaper that was in a few of the rooms. Kevin just removed a wallpaper trim from his celing. We will just repaint the wall.
