WE ARE MOVING

Josh is so tired of riding the shuttle down to SLC every time he has to fly (which is about 2-4 times a month). He didn't want to live in a huge city like Salt Lake or Denver or St. Louis. So he picked 3 cities that would suit him: Rapid City, SD; Colorado Springs, CO; St. George, UT. So after much deliberating and praying and going to the temple, we have decided to move to St. George, Utah. During spring break, we were so busy. We met with the realtor here to see about putting our house on the market. That started an immediate remodel. We put in new carpet throughout, new counter tops in the kitchen, and a new stove. That took two weeks to get everything done.

So in the mean time, we went down to St. George to meet with a realtor and see our options. We found several homes that we really, like but we have to sell this one first. Here are some pictures of the family climbing on some beautiful red rock and the girls with one of their new best friends, Poncho the dog.

Boise TKD Tournament

Riley had his annual TKD tournament in Boise in March. He competed in sparing, which he was lucky enough to get in two fights and got second place. He also competed in "forms." He had fun and learned more about fighting other opponents. The family had fun together. We went down the night before and stayed in a hotel and went swimming. We saw James and Tyson while we were there. They came to the tournament and saw Riley compete. It is a long day to watch your kid compete for about 15 minutes, but well worth it.

Riley's Program

Riley had his 4th Grade Idaho History Program on March 20th. Thanks to his friend, Grant, Riley learned the Virginia Reel. Grant had to drag him to volunteer to learn the dance. He must have a little of his father in him. His did an excellant job. They also sang some other songs. It was very cute.
No smiles out of this kid.

Dr.Seuss Night

Edahow's second grade had there Dr. Seuss program tonight. Here is a quick upload for dad that was working.


Not so fun at Outer Limits

We went to Outer Limits with Nick and Dana and their families for FHE this week. It was lots of for the little girls. Outer Limits had a big jungle gym climbing toy that they loved. Riley was way too cool for that so he went to the arcade. Just as Riley and Madison had finished off all the tokens and had to buy a drink because they were so thirsty, Alaina had an "accident" that dripped all the way down to the bottom of the toy. And of course she was way up on the climbing gym and wouldn't move, so I had to climb up there and get her. Her unprepared Mom did not have any new pants and underwear, so she wore her cousins diaper. By this time I had had enough and told the kids it was time to go home. I got some pics of the girls climbing on the gym, but none of Riley playing on the arcade.
