Everly turns 7!!

Streamer time!! It's like passing the finish line of being six!! You win!

We brought cupcakes to school to share with her class and they sang to her while she stood high on her desk!

I went back home to work on Everly's traditional rainbow cake...I don't think we'll ever break this tradition....it's a part of her signature birthday style!

She chose pork chops and cous cous for her birthday dinner...of course!

I mean...it's her favorite!

Oh...the glow!

She never fails to get a unicorn....and she love her fashion plates from Grandma Kathleen!

And her dad picked out the best bike ever...she'll be riding in style!!

Happy Birthday, sweet Everbee!

All dressed up....

Just another Monday morning!

Keeping it fresh

We are trying.

Anything.....anything at all to get them to pay attention to what we're reading during scripture study.

Today, we're drawing out a big diagram of Lehi's Dream.

The little kids are WAY more into it than the big kids...but the big kids aren't face down in the carpet, so I will take that to the bank!

Threat Level Midnight

They have a name. At long last!!

Threat Level Midnight....a nod to Office fans everywhere.

"Beehive" Breakfast

I am not sure if I'll ever be able to stop calling them Beehives.

Whatever....

We had everyone over for breakfast and the house is still standing! They are super cute and SUPER excited to be in Young Women!

Mathew works the drive thru

Mathew has a new job!! He is working at Arby's and we are so glad he's out of the skeezy Pizza Hut corner. It was just....off.

Now he's having a ball talking to customers and being uber polite. It's one of his talents!

He can even handle a goofy dad, coming through with a redneck accent...trying to mess him up. He was cool as a cucumber!

Ahhhh...messing with you kids is definitely one of the perks of the job!

Braces!

If anyone can weather middle school with braces, it's this girl!

Only 2 1/2 years to go!
