Super Bowl 50

The kids woke up thinking that they were going to fast but the pancakes from last night were not enough and they were too hungry. We need to be better about preparation the day before! We arrived to church as they were singing the sacrament hymn. I saw a bench so we went up but someone was actually in it so we ended up walking around the front and sat on the second row. Here comes the late family!!

We had a great day at church and talked about how to keep yourselves in line with focusing on the end goal of eternal life. We need to look at the positive in life in order to stay strong. If we focus on the negative worldly things all around us we will be consumed and ultimately not happy. One of the members in our ward works for Hanes and brought a bunch of socks for everyone to take home. They kids were happy!!

I spent a little time after lunch taking a quick nap before I was in the kitchen the rest of the day. I got all the finger foods ready for the Super Bowl. I made cuban sliders, teriyaki burgers, and mini pizza cup. We also had grapes, chips & salsa and flamin hot cheetos.


The kids watched the puppy bowl on Animal planet and then they all went upstairs to play. Once the actual Super Bowl started they came to watch the blue angels fly over but went back to play. Xander came in a few times wearing blue. The kids were all going to for the Carolina Panthers because we live here although Paul and I were going for the Denver Broncos. Paul has had a headache for 3 days now and finally after a long bath and relaxing all day it is slowly starting to go away.

Staci and Paul enjoyed the half time show while I read stories upstairs to the kids. Then Staci went to bed and we finished watched the game. We were surprised but happy that the Broncos won! Peyton Manning is an amazing player and I love how humble he is! Such a great athlete who seems like a great family man!!

Learning to Hula

Today was a big day for Kaitlyn. We registered her for Kindergarten. It didn't quite go as planned for Mom though. We all got up early with Staci and took her to school. Then we got in line for the registration. Mom was feeling pretty good because we were like 12th one there. But as we waited for 45 minutes and got up to the front of the line they wouldn't put Kaitlyn's name on the list because we didn't have prove of our address. Mom wasn't aware that we needed it since we already have one child at the school and they should have this on file. They said they could give her the paperwork but that she couldn't be added to the list until they can verify where we live. Mom had to go home. She was furious and hoped that we could still get Kaitlyn into this school. Here in Pocatello they have open enrollment so you can take your kids where ever you want. This doesn't make any sense why it matters where you live then anyways but Mom hurried as quickly as she could...

This morning the kids all slept in but we had to get them going since today was going to be a busy day. We made pancakes & eggs for breakfast. After we ate it was time for Staci to say good bye to Cami & take her home. They had a fun sleepover although Staci has been one onwry girl every since. So it will be a few weeks before she can have another sleep over, that is for sure. We left to go and get Dad's new toy, a new BBQ grill. We got it at Costco for a little more money than Mom had originally thought when Dad started searching a few months ago. But this grill has everything; an oven, ice box, a searing station, griddle and more. It is everything Dad wants in a BBQ. But now Dad can do all the big cooking outside and not use up the kitchen for the big dinners that he puts on for people. Dad is a great cook and Mom's know this will get plenty of use. Well we got home and then had to get Xander changed to be ready for his big game. It was his first t-ball game today and...
