We're off!

We're leaving for a trip to Utah early tomorrow morning! We'll spend most of our time in Salt Lake City. We're going here:

my grandma's house!

Of course, being BYU alumni we can't go on straight through Provo without stopping by campus and some of our favorite Provo places. We're also planning on seeing some old friends and stopping by temple square. Should be lots of fun! I hope the drive goes well. I will assemble some "snack packs" for the trip...and we have a few surprises to pull out if a certain kid starts getting sick of sitting in the car. I'm sure we'll have lots to report when we get back.

Quotes 2016

Clay was jumping from tile to tile in our kitchen, then kind of spinning on each tile, careful to stay within the square shape of each tile. I asked, "What are you doing?" and Clay responded, "I'm square dancing!"

Clay, said every time he prays: "Help us to be like the Gospel."

Clay, said another time he prayed for each person in our family that they could "do good" in either school or work when he got to me he said: "...Please bless mom that she can go to the gym." I guess that sticks out to him!

We were walking into Wells Fargo when Paige saw a man with shoulder length hair and a beard getting into his car. I was holding Paige and she grabbed my face and turns my head toward the man. Then she says, "Mom, there's Jesus!" (November 2016)

Paige: "I look like nursery!" She said this as she looked at herself in the mirror after I got her dressed for church and had just finished doing her hair. (March 2017)

"remembery" -Clay (Memory) October 2017

Joey, asking Paige: "Should I grow a prickly beard or shave and have soft cheeks?"

Paige, jumping up and down answers: "A sparkly beard!" (September 2017)

"Jew-zi-knee bread" - Paige (zucchini bread) (September 2017)

In school Miles was learning about the Great Depression. He was talking on and on about it to me and started talking about Herbert Hoover and Franklin Roosevelt. He was trying to tell me about the president known as FDR (Roosevelt) but instead he kept saying, "KFC" I couldn't figure out what he meant until he said, "You know, he was president after Hoover, everybody called him KFC". I had to explain he was actually known as FDR! (October 2017)
