Fun times...

DUR HUR HUR

It seems like as soon as it warmed up a little bit we became super busy!! We planted a garden! Wahoo! Well... actually everything I planted at first died! And then thanks to a few friends who planted way too many plants I have some tomatoes and peppers and such and then I re-planted some other things and voila! now I have a beautiful garden. Well, half of it is still in paper cups on my kitchen table... but they too will be in the ground soon!

I have also been super busy with Young Women's. It is fun getting to know the girls a little bit better. We had a beehive sleepover at our house a few weeks ago. I was introduced to the world of Guitar Hero, DDR and Drake Bell (whoever that is). I also showed the girls how to make their own bags. And you know what we should have taken a picture. They did a great job sewing, their bags are darn cute! The next Friday we had the pre-camp clinic for all the YW. It was tons o' fun! We went to our Bishop's place, shot each other with marshmallows (Bishop and his wife used paintball guns and a golf cart - cheaters!), enjoyed tinfoil dinners, cobbler, camp songs, and a great devotional. After the devotional I left the girls and other leaders to the racoons and went home for some beauty sleep. This is Delight shooting a marshmallow into Jennifer's mouth. Yum!


The next day James and I mostly ran the Race for the Cure. It was incredible! The energy downtown was amazing! And the river of people was a sight to see! We are excited to run another 5k sometime this summer. I never really thought running was fun, but truly it is. We had a great time!


This past Friday was Ethan's first birthday. Happy Birthday Sweets! He had some shots, some good food, and a yummy chocolate cupcake for his birthday. What more could a little boy ask for? Sometimes it seems like no time has past since last year, and sometimes it feels like he has been a part of our lives forever. I sure do love that little munchkin!
