More walks at BYU

We have been enjoying the sunnier weather and now when we walk on campus we get to see the beautiful flowers! This time the kids brought paper and pencils to sketch the things they saw.










More soccer

Here are some pictures of Mason playing in his game. It is much harder to get a good shot of Mason because the field they play on is so big! This was a particularly COLD day. I felt bad that I didn't have him wear a shirt under his jersey. He kept putting his hands in his pockets because it was so cold!








Somersaults!

Cassidy discovered a couple days ago that she can now do a somersault. It kind of happened on accident and it caught her off guard, but she did it! She's quite good too! I love trying to get action shots. They never turn out, but it's pretty funny to see them all together.

My first quilt

MBASA (MBA spouse association) put together a couple of nights to learn how to make a friendship quilt. We all chose our BYU colored fabric, made our individual strips, then traded them. I finished my quilt last night. Even though there are obvious mistakes, and it's far from perfect, it actually looks like a quilt. It's comfy and will remind me of this time in our lives. It feels very good to accomplish something like this. I want to make more quilts, and now I understand why Nancy, my mother-in-law, quilts so often. It's fun and creative!

(Just as a reminder to myself, I made this quilt with Heidi Mayorga, Makana Hansen, Kim Baker and Katrina Seamons. My strip is the middle one)
