Seminary in March

We celebrated three birthdays...
studied the many titles of Christ...
listed the many things we can do each day to bring light into our lives,
and saw a visual representation of what that light can do for us personally...
were taught doctrine and principles by my amazing students...
got caught up by doing some station work (those snow days and delays are killing us!)...
celebrated Pie Day with several homemade pies by our very own Emily S...
did more fun art work...
enjoyed our Friday breakfasts...
worked on our Youth Battalion class poster...
laughed at Harrison's fabulous personality...
gained a better understanding of the priesthood and all its aspects...
rocked our crazy socks to show our love and support for Quinn on World Down Syndrome Day...
sometimes twinned...
got rid of those seminary bucks at yet another seminary store...
and just enjoyed spending our early mornings together!
I also got to see my seminary students in action outside of the classroom! Most of my Patterson Mill kids participated in their spring musical, "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat", which I had never seen before. It was amazing and so much fun! Emma was the stage manager,
Sydney handed out programs,
Emily played the music,
and Lydia was on stage!
Over at Edgewood Harrison helped make the stage props for the musical "Shrek, The Musical". Everything looked fabulous!
A seminary night out!

Cleo at 8 Months

Trying to keep down the dog smell by giving lots of baths;
dealing with a dog's curiosity;
sharing all our spaces that should be off limits to animals;
having an unhappy dog because we gave her old puppy bed to the cat (notice the drool - yuck!);
lots of silly moments;
lots and lots and LOTS of walks, usually involving sticks, some that are acceptable size and some that are not;
the drool problem is real and when it's hangin' is her favorite time to give loves;
teaching tricks using treats;
and an incredible amount of cuddles and loves!
