Random doings

Syl hid all of her mice under the fridge.  I pulled them out, which made her happy... but then she proceeded to start batting them back under the fridge again.

I pulled out the eggs to make dinner and ended up having to clean the floor, fridge and inside the freezer.

We took Seth to the Provo City Center temple for the first time.  That was fun.

It was so hot this year that we didn't get many flowers.  We finally got some blooms a month late.

Seth got his birthday present legos and was in love with them... he's so cute.

I took two photo shoots at the Oquirrh Mountain temple in the last two weeks.

Ada and I got to see the gilded doors at BYU before she moved out.

I went to help mow the lawn and ended up eating raspberries as a yummy reward.

 

Brickslopes

We haven't been able to go to this event for a while, so I was glad to be able to do it all together.  Sam and I definitely spent too much money, but it was fun.  They will all be birthday and Christmas presents so it worked out.  We bought Evelyn a lego set for $175 that online was going for $300. We bought one set that isn't available online anymore.  And one for $50 that was going for $70 online.  

This one was a pretty cool and comprehensive Harry Potter set up.

Someone did a Bridge run from Brandon Sanderson's books.... including Lupen as the armless waterboy.

One guy made weights.  Ada said they were very light, but they were fun.

The Les Mes one was the most artistic one that I saw.

The funnest exhibit was a giant lego castle made out of ginormous lego bricks.

This was a moment that my heart was very happy.  Seeing my little family happily holding hands and having fun.

 

Seth's 12th birthday

This sweet boy turned 12.  He is starting to feel grown up and capable.  I love his wit and joy.  I love his building skills.  He's a fun sidekick that can now legally sit in the front seat.

Ada said we should make seth a 6-7 cake as a joke...

Seth wanted to do a climbing escape room for his birthday.  I sat at the table and everyone left to play.  It was fun enough that I didn't see anyone except for pizza and cake.   Win of a party.
