Happy Birthdays and Conference time!

We had a fun weekend, full of fiestas and family! My mom and my darling niece celebrated birthdays, so we broke a pinata, ate mexican food and fiesta'd! Homemade ice-cream and all! And then, we enjoyed family as we watched General Conference. I have to laugh that I spend most of the last session of Conference in constant battle with my children, but I suppose one day I'll miss it....yeah right! :)

Right now we are in full sports mode at our house. There is never a day (besides Sunday) that we are not involved in some sport. Right now Keaton is on the highschool Lacrosse team, which involves a hefty practice and conditioning schedule. Chase is on the Tsunami Swim Team at our rec center, and Brooks is doing Lacrosse as well. It's fun to watch them progress. Chase had a meet this weekend, and both Lacrosse boys have games every Saturday. So we are BUSY! But it's been so nice to spend the time outside watching the games in the beautiful weather we've been having. I'm sure it won't last forever, so I'm sure enjoying it while it's here.

If you notice some repeats in my meals over the next few weeks, you'll know it's because our busy schedule didn't allow me to be home to make the dinner I had planned. I'm sure we'll get back to normalcy sometime soon.....yeah right! :)
