Jeffy and I were able to go out last night with a group of friends for a fun night out. We went down to Provo for dinner at the Olive Garden and then about half of us went bowling at the good ‘ol Miracle Bowl in Orem. Jeffy and I haven’t eaten at the Olive Garden since we started losing weight and it was a challenge because we love everything there! We shared an entree and even had them make it with whole wheat pasta which was delicious! We enjoyed lots of laughter with our friends and love each of them so much! We’re so blessed to have such wonderful friends close by who care so much about us and our kids. The rest of us enjoyed bowling and there were some amazing runs by all of us and it was just a good time! Here is a picture of Jeffy in all his bowling glory. Gotta love those shoes.

Thanks guys for a fun night out!

The other day after the kids had eaten lunch, I was putting the dishes in the sink and I hear Lindsay say, “Logan, here, I’ll read you a book. Come on buddy, get up here on the couch. I’ll help you.” I look up and see this:

I love when my kids are so sweet with each other! It makes me want to cry to see two little people being such wonderful examples to me. We have a FHE book called, ‘Who’s Your Hero?’ and it has three stories about Nephi, Ammon, and Abinadi. After each story it explains how you can be like that certain hero and for Ammon there is a picture of a big sister reading a story to her baby brother and every time Lindsay tells me that she can do that for Logan, so she must have remembered that when she saw Logan trying to read the book by himself. Aren’t my beach babies cute?

After our family reunion in Arizona, we traveled over to California to visit with Jeffy’s family for a few days. All of his siblings were there except one so it was really nice to have everyone together. We did a lot of swimming in their pool in which Lindsay could stand up in so that was so fun! She really enjoyed it and showed us how good she was at going under the water. I now think she’s ready for swimming lessons. Their cousin Emmy came over for a few days and Lindsay had a blast playing with her. The only time I really saw Lindsay was for meals, other than that she was off playing and having a blast. Logan enjoyed trying to keep up with the girls, playing with Uncle Laney and watching Dodger games.



While we were there we got to see his cousin Hollie get sealed in the San Diego Temple. It was a really fun day and Jeffy and I loved being at the temple that we were sealed in. It was a good almost 5 year anniversary date. Isn’t it beautiful?

We also got to see his other cousin bless his new baby girl. The morning before church, Logan had handed me a diaper to change him so I did and then as soon as I did, he went and got another one, so I really had no other choice but to put it on over his clothes. He thought it was hilarious and wouldn’t really let me take it off. So he went to church looking like this:

Too funny. We love you and miss you Snider family!!
