What happened in February?

These days, we don't hear too much from Cam.  She's busy living life in Arizona.  Everyone in awhile, I see snippets of her life on Instagram Stories.  Whenever I do, I hurry up and grab a screen shot !  Here she is with Hannah and a little one, both of whom are cousins.  They were lucky enough to get to go to some Spring Training games.   Landon and Payson are heading down there later this month to catch some games, hope they can meet up :) 

Here' a cute pic of Bexlee that her mom posted.  Can you believe that curly hair?  And that mischievous look on her face ?  

Bexlee and Payson celebrating their birthdays as Grandma Carol's - Fun times :)

This was our Family Home Evening last month.  We followed the iron rod past the great and spacious building, the dirty river, through the mists of darkness, finally arriving at the Tree of Life, and partook of the fruit (cheeseballs hanging on yarn).  The angel in white led us along the way.  It was a great night, hope the kids remember this forever. 

Ward dinner was fun - the Relief Society was in charge of the food (tacos).  It went well,other than the left over food, and exhaustion!  ha!   Glad it is done. 

Cam's friends - looks like Coldstone was on tap !

Can't remember if I posted this, but this is the flower arrangement I did for Phyllis' funeral.  She was one in a million, and I'm going to miss going to visit her. 

Here is a picture of her as a young woman - probably about the time of her marriage.  I've posted it to Family Search, along with several audio snippets of her and Effie Rich talking about the "good ol' days"

Poor Thatcher had to have a BUNCH of teeth removed (in preparation for braces in a few months).  He actually went to an oral surgeon, and was put out for the procedure.  I guess the roots were LONG !  The toothfairy sure had a hey day :)

Tagg turned 12 !

I made it to the temple a few times :)

Zac had Rog help him (do all the heavy lifting) work on the chicken coop at his house, and he is finally able to do a little bit with his arm (very little).  He's still a few weeks out on going back to work.

Can you say ALMOST automatic feeder?  Now Tagg won't have to go in the muddy coop to feed everyday.  

Mom's flower sure grew !

Payson got a new bike for his birthday

And we gave him and Thatcher this same book.  They sure had fun with it. 

Zac needed more hay for his goats, so the boys came over, and between them all, they got a few bales loaded up.  Zac could only carry a bale with his left arm...... and Tagg struggled, but was able to help out also.  Treyson was at a friends, and Thatcher was minding the gate with Grandma. 

Cam got ANOTHER new cousin.  She sure loves the babies. 

Gunny and Thatch

The other day Thatcher had to have a bunch of cavities filled at the Dentist.   

After the procedure at Primary's the week before, he was pretty nervous, so Tanja arranged to have his BEST FRIEND, Gunny (a service dog) go with him.  They made sure it was okay with Dr. Haslam before they did.  The doctor wasn't so sure........

But after seeing Gunny's demeanor and help during the whole thing...........

....the Dr. was very impressed, and even wanted Tanja to have him come back with other patients in the future !
Gunny was right there when Thatch woke up, and was very comforting for Thatcher. 

On the way home........

Loves for Gunny

Landon's Family - alot going on.

Trips to the Dentist !

Lagoon of course.  With season passes, this happens quite a bit.  

Camping in the Uintas

Brightyn is squeeling with delight.  She is SUCH a dare devil.

In bed with all of the cousins (camping)
Brightyn, Harper, Kolston, Kroix, Payson, Kellen

Watching fireworks last night for the 24th.

Kacey with Kolston and Bright

More camping - sure looks like dirty fun !

Wow, these pics are in no order at all !
Earlier in the month they traveled to Cali for Justin and Lindsey's wedding.  This is the wedding party.  Let's see if I can name them all.  Alan Tucker, ?, Colton Winchester, ?, ?, Justin and Lindsey, Landon, Travis BoBo, ?, Kacey, Tim Poll, and Ian Feik.  

Payson finished up hisT-ball/Coach pitch baseball in West Haven.
Landon was the Coach.  What a fun little team.

Kacey is baby sitting her cousin's kids.  Here they are one morning when I stopped down to drop off some eggs.  Totally  engrossed in Peter Pan, right in the middle of their own FORT :)

West Haven Crossfit.  Kacey is in the back, holding Payson.  Not sure where Landon and Brightyn are.  They really enjoy Crossfit.  It is a great thing they can enjoy together as a couple and family. 

During the trip to Cali - with a stop off in Las Vegas on the way home, in front of the Bellagio Fountains.

Cute couple in their wedding attire :)

Dentist Office Drama

At 5 years old, Treyson was such a trooper.
He did so well, and asked a million questions.
I think he thought it was a BIG adventure.

Not sure what's up with the "gang signs" haha

Treyson tried to reassure Tagg, and explain things to him, but Tagg was pretty cautious. He would only let Dr. Jess look in his mouth with the toothbrush, but wouldn't let the hygienist "tickle" his teeth with the "race car" vroom vroom brush (polisher).

Afterward they went a little crazy with the "sticky hands" toys they received.

I finally took them out side while C.J. finished up.
They are sweet little boys, and everyone loved them, although we did keep getting the question, "Are they always like this??"

"Ummm, yeah..........pretty much !" :)
