Kendyll and Michael

Kendyll came with us to the Pinewood Derby. Michael was so excited. Michael let Kendyll use his car from last year and they raced each other. Kendyll won the race. It was a fun night and Michael thought he was so cool to walk around with his big cousin Kendyll! I thought you might like to take a look.

Here is a short video of Michael at the Pinewood Derby! He worked hard on his car with John. It was a fun night.

I forgot to add this to the earlier post. Michael worked really hard to climb this rock!

Presidents Weekend

We spent President's Weekend in St George. It was so fun. We went to baseball games for Kendyll and Kyle(our cousins) on Saturday and Sunday. It was so warm and sunny on Sunday, it was a perfect day. On Saturday after the games we went rock climbing at Pioneer Park. It was a great experience. Sophia, Michael and Emily all climbed up a big rock and did so well. Here are a few video clips of them climbing.
Enjoy.

Valentines

Here is a cute video of Sophia at the dinner table on Valentines night. John came home early from work. He brought me beautifully wrapped flowers and he also gave the girls their own flower wrapped in floral paper. They were thrilled. Michael was sulking(he was sad he did not get a gift) and John told him boys buy girls valentines gifts. He was only feeling bad for about 10 minutes and then he was sent on a treasure hunt and at the end he found a guitar hero III for the wii!

The Lymans and the Bells meet in Salt Lake City

Emily and Brianna have been great friends since they were 1 year old. When we moved from Tooele, that was the saddest thing about leaving. Emily really missed her and has shed many tears over it. Heather and I decided to meet at the church museum last week with our kids. It was so fun. I could not believe how tall Jacob is, he towers over his mother. He loves Disneyland even more than I do, who thought there was a person. I had a great time talking with Jacob, we traded disney facts and he went home and sent me some cool websites I have been checking out when time permits. Thank You Jacob. He is a great boy. Heather and Wayne have done a great job. Brianna is growing up way too fast just like Emily. They gave each other a great big hug. We went upsatairs to the I am a Child of God exhibit. It was fun for Sophia. It is more for the primary kids. It was fun to sit up there and chat for awhile. We have to do it more often . It was fun to see the Lymans! This video is really just for Heather, Wayne, Jacob and Brianna's eyes but if you are curious take a look.
We miss you.

#15 Michael Bell Basketball

Hello! I know there are alot of posts. I have been wanting to do this and I have time so here goes.
Michael is just about done with basketball. He has had a good time. John takes him to practice every Tuesday and he has a game every Saturday. He is really good at guarding his man but he has not been able to score a basket but last Saturday he did. I was so excited that I did not video the basket going into the net because I was cheering. Here is what I have I know my Dad will enjoy watching this.
Enjoy our little basketball boy.

singing at the Utah State Capital

Emily and Michael are in the choir at Kaysville Elementary. They wake up early on Tuesday and Thursday and have choir practice from 7:30 - 8:30 am. They really enjoy it. The Christmas concert was so cute, I had my flip video ready and I was out of batteries!
They have been remodeling the Utah Capital for 7 years and they rededicated it last month. The choir from Kaysville Elementary was the only elementary choir invited to sing. They sang on the marble steps, it was so cool. They did a great job. I was so proud of them. It was an awesome experience. A man working at the Capital told our principal that there had been many choirs singing there in the past week and that we were the best!!
Enjoy

Happy Valentines Day

Happy Valentines Day Everyone!
We had the worst snow storm yesterday. The wind was so strong that when I picked the girls up from preschool I had to walk backwards to get to the car because the snow was pelting me in the eye, I couldn't see! John did not get home from work until 7 and he left sometime after 5 this morning so he would get there on time. I can't believe it is the middle of February. Time flies. Emily has a Valentine dance tomorrow for all the 6 th grade and she is helping decorate the gym tonight after school. I am going to be a chaperone tomorrow! How funny.
Here is a video of Michael snowboarding that Emily took.
Enjoy.
