Shaved Ice is a new favorite around here!
My mom get a rad shaved ice maker, and Micah is the perfect shaved icee maker.
At least Britni approves!
As do all of the little chitlins in the hot tub.

Memorial Day Olympics ‘17
Yet another Ward Olympics is in the books.
Scout had some buddies helping him through the 5K.
Navy did surprisingly well in her heat — 2nd place.
Dash obviously lived up to his name and got first.
And after Pips won her race — she hung out with her best buddy…Hansen Jon of course.
Responsible
Don’t think, that because Pippi is only three, that she isn’t responsible.
When she was at Auggies today, and she spilled water…she immediately went over to a tissue box, and started wiping up her mess. Maybe the tissue disintegrating all over the water made it worse, but I applauded her for her efforts.
Good job Pips.
Prayers and Spotlight
Pippi is hilarious.
Her prayers lately, are pure comedy.
Tonight’s prayer included, “I love everyone in the world. And that blows me away.”
And after prayers, she decided to play a round of “Spotlight”. Her new obsession is the “spotlight” during primary. Every single week she wants it to be her — and is devastated each week when it isn’t her. But at home, she is in charge, and she has everyone stand up. Then she has everyone sit who is wearing blue. Then those who are wearing shoes must sit. Then she narrows it down to one person. Tonight, Scout was the spotlight. When he went up, she interviewed him the way they do at church. She is legitimately the most observant girl. And she is down right hilarious.
Pippi — you are the perfect entertainer for each of us every night!
Au Natural
Since we have four of our own…I guess I shouldn’t be surprised at Micah’s ability with babies.
He is an absolute natural.
Farm Girl
This girl insisted on wearing a farm outfit because she was going to the farm.
So we put her in a flannel and some overalls, and she played the part well.
I’m just glad that when we went to lunch at a Mexican restaurant afterwards, she didn’t ask me for a sombrero to wear.
Speech
Scout woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning, so he was sent back to bed for a while.
In order for him to get out, he needed to give everyone in the room a speech about why you should have a good attitude.
His speech was awful.
He got a D-.
But his cleverness and ability to speak in front of a crowd got him out of his bedroom.
(And his laughing at his punishment that proved he was having a good attitude, helped.)
HIVE Girl Service
I am pretty sure that this might be a first — in all of history.
Unless you know of someone who is suffering from a sever case of hives — who makes breakfast in bed for her mom.
You know why she did it?
Just because she is rad!
Ka’s Temple Day
Today was a good day.
Ka — you are rad.
HIVES
Navy woke up this morning with hives everywhere!
I should have listened to her more closely when she said she was a bit itchy last night!
I took her to the doctor — and there were no real answers…but she was put on a steroid to tone her rash down.
She was in good spirits — as she always is!
But I made sure she didn’t walk past a mirror to see her overnight 20 pound weight gain!
Poor girl.
Especially since she is supposed to be getting baptized in just a few days.
I think it’s time to reschedule.
