Shopping during school

Most of the time, I go home after dropping Evelyn off to school so that Seth can nap. Sometimes we go shopping together. His favorite things are trying on glasses and toy isles.

Ada got tickets for being quiet in class, so Thusday we went. It was fun and the kids were excited to go until we told them they had to stay close by us and not wander off. Sam gripped about it until he realized that he really was okay.

Our week

Soccer was extra early this week. It was fun, but cold. Then it was hot for Evleyn's game in the afternoon. We got some good running in for everyone, chores done, and the kids went to play on the bouncy slipnslide our neighbors rented for their kids' birthday. Then swimming at the rec center. Right after we got back, Sam says, "I'm really regretting that cotton candy!" and promptly threw up on the rug. I'm not sure if he's sick or dehydrated from not drinking enough for his busy day. Then our game night with my brother, Seth and a few friends.

Friday night we went to the Utah Symphony. Beautiful! It was fun to have not just Jim and Judy, but also Amy and Jon. Last week Amy brought Aubrey and Mariah.

I just missed the picture. Sam had pulled the soccer ball back from the line. He's getting better with his foot work.

Dad and Ada

Jer and Pres Christensen coached Ada's soccer team. So fun.

Diane and Ruth

This week, it was so fun to have Diane and Ruth here! Ruth was off on her way to BYU-I. They stopped to visit with us on the way up. I loved chatting with them (I've so missed it!) and it felt right to have some time together. Ada really wanted to hang out with Ruth... she said, "Ruth gives the best hugs!" Seth kept making Diane sing 'Monkeys jumping on the bed' and yelling, "Aunt Diane!" the whole time. Ruth will do great and Diane's baby will be just as amazing as their other kids. After dropping Ruth off, Diane came to church with us. It was cute to watch Evelyn cuddle with her during Sacrament meeting. Hopefully we get to go visit them soon!

Evelyn

Soccer practice

Evelyn hiding from the rain. Yesterday we went to Sam and Ada's soccer game. It looked like it might rain, but didn't do much. Right at half time there was lightning all around everyone. Seth and Evelyn were freaked out and they called all the girls off the field for a pow wow. I packed up to get the kids to the car and they called the game. There was a a guy in a golf cart driving around as fast as he could telling everyone to get off the fields. It was scary and a little surreal to see 26 soccer teams and their families running for their cars. I think the scariest thing was that Sam's field was on the other end of the fields and while I had 3 kids with me, he was down on the other field while everyone was running for it. Luckily he found us and we got to the car just as it started pouring.
