Sunday March 22nd

We just walked down to the beach and the tide was unusually high. 
We also found some barnacles on a piece of foam. They were creepy! 




Sunday March 22nd

Today Sister Carole M. Stephens the 1st counselor in the general relief society presidency visited our ward. She spoke in sacrament meeting and then went to relief society with us. The girls and I visited with her after the meeting. It was amazing! What a special lady! I'm so excited for general conference! 

March 21st Matts birthday!

It was a great day Matt, Wes and Cart went on a hike with the scouts and then we all went to Sharks Cove on the north shore. Then we came home opened presents, watched Big Hero 6 (one of Matts gifts) and ate pie! 

It really was "Matts" birthday. 

SHE'S HERE!

Mati is here! She poped out of a box and really surprised all the kids! I'm not sure that we'll ever be able to convince Ivy and Sullivan that she really flew on a plane! We've had a wonderful week!

March 2nd Sullivan's preschool adventures


Sullivan's preschool is here at the Downs hale. When it's time for preschool he will put on his backpack and go out the garage door and then knock on the door and come in and from that point on Im Mrs. Downs his preschool teacher. It has been so fun! He just gobbles it up! 
What other preschool can you attend without a shirt and your hair uncombed?
...and go hunting for dragons at recess?











Feb. 26th

Cart, Liv and Min at the BYUH basketball games. During the last game of the season and Jordan's last game as a 
sea sider he was hit above his left eye going up for a rebound. The kids and I saw it happen and gasped at how hard he was hit but Jordan kept playing and didn't realize until he was at the opposite end of the court that he had a cut the required 7 stitches. He also had a concussion. They had passed out faces of the seniors to the crowd and because Liv just happened to have an ace bandage on her wrist we bandaged up Jordan's head while he was in the locker room getting stitches. Jordan got a kick out of that! What an awesome guy! We're planning to have him and his cute wife Lindee over for dinner when they return from Cali for the play offs. 







Valentine's Day



Two of Ivy's wishes have been granted!

Ballet and Hula lessons. Yeah Ivy
