Time Marches On

As much as I warn these kids about how they are not allowed to grow up, they continue to not listen to me. Here's a look into March of 2024 as time continues to march on.

I love when these girls get along. It's a rare occurrence, so it needs to be documented when it happens. 

Even though she is a teenager, sometimes you just need to play on the swings and the wiggle car. I snuck these pictures and they might by my favorites. 

Is it not a family selfie if your tongue is not sticking out?

We got to attend Makayla's choir concert. This one they had to learn songs in different languages. 

This is one spoiled dog... she's getting paw-sages from Makayla. 

Looks like Haylie and Henry might be back in our neighborhood. Remember when they had 9 ducklings in our back yard a few years ago? Good times. 

Happy St. Patrick's Day! The kids didn't try to catch Lucky this year, but he still stopped by to play some tricks, bring us some treats and surprises. 

Oh ya, and he peed in our toilet again. You know, you would think he would use the bathroom at someone else's house... why is it always at ours?

And he turned our milk green. And then the kids refused to drink it. 

Bella is in heaven whenever she finds a sunny spot to lay. 

Caden and Tyler had fun at the Jazz game. The Jazz are not doing well anymore this season, but the lesson we need to remember is that we don't give up on our Jazz.

Caden waved to Alema Harrington, one of the announcers for the Jazz

Makayla's dreaded day has arrived... she's getting phase 2 braces. Our orthodontist does braces in phases to reduce the amount of time they have to be in braces. Makayla's first set was when she was in 3rd grade and she had the expander for about a year. This time she will have braces on her top and bottom teeth for about 12-18 months. 

Makayla doesn't love it, but I think she looks beautiful!

I got my nails done and I loved them until Tyler said it looked like I had Easter eggs on my fingers. He sure knows how to ruin things. 

We're making some good progress on our basement. Tyler and the kids were priming to get ready for paint. 

Bella got her haircut and look how cute her bows are. 

We do not love snow in spring... seriously, what is up with our weather lately?

Makayla took this Bereal and I just love these three.

So Tyler and I went on a little date night. I wanted to try a new restaurant my coworkers told me about called Sol Agave. When we walked in it was crowded and it looked like there were cameras set up. We both looked at each other and Tyler said, "I wonder if a Real Housewife is here" and at the exact time he said that, we both recognized Meridith Marks from the reality show Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Tyler and I both love the show so much. The hostess took us to our seats and we were literally kiddie corner to Meridith's table. There were about 3 different camera men set up filming and one of the cameras was pointed right at me. I was so nervous the whole dinner. What if we watch the show and all you can see in the background is me stuffing chips and salsa in my mouth?

The food was just ok, and the gawking at the "celebrities" was amazing. We were hoping for a fight scene, but their dinner was very tame. 

We didn't recognize the couple they were eating with. I guess we will have to watch this season to see who they are. 

After dinner Tyler and I went to the Jazz game. I am so glad we bought season tickets and hopefully there will be more Jazz games (and hopefully a better season) next year. 

Spring break at our house was pretty boring. I told the kids I would take them to do one fun thing and they decided to do the trampoline park. Other than that our Spring break was kinda lame.
