Today is the first day of our spring break, and we are doing nothing!! Really. Sometimes I think it is nice to stay home. Two week ago, I had the chance to go to the conference center to attend the YW conference. The choir was girls from Cache Valley. Seven stakes were involved, so not many girls from each ward could be involved. We had four from our ward. It was interesting how it worked. It was actually a calling and the girls had to commit not to miss any practices. Each practice had a devotional and they were spoke to by some of the big guns, like Elder Nelson. Our stake was able to get tickets for all the rest of the girls, their mothers and leaders to attend. It was really great.

In other news Katie has lost two teeth and a third is hanging by a thread. She had her first soccer game, and although it was freezing, she did great and had fun. She isn't afraid to get out and kick the ball. I started volleyball. It was so much and fun and we won our first two games. Connor had his 12th birthday on Monday. He attended the Priesthood Conference with Mike. He was so excited. He is also pretty excited to go to YM. I can't quite believe it. We went to dinner with Mike's parents on Monday. Happily,Connor wanted cheesecake for his birthday and I made him a really yummy one with a brownie bottom.

He had some of his friends over on Wednesday for a late night party. NO more sleep overs, I can't handle it. After this party I say anyone who works with Deacons deserves an award. My boys had been saving their money and two weeks ago purchased a Wii. I was pretty proud of them for being able to save that much at their age. ( I have to admit, I won't give up real tennis anytime soon, but the Wii is pretty darn fun. Connor got a sore arm bowling) Anyway, the plan was for Connor and his friends to play the Wii some of the time and we also planned some party games for the rest. We attempted to play Apples to Apples, but honestly they were so loud, silly, and obnoxious I had to leave. They had a great time, and although I'm bragging, Connor is a great kid.

Kenna has now watched Enchanted a million times and is convinced that she is really a princess herself, named Annalise. She makes me laugh and often when I talk to her, she either asks to be called Annalise or tells me to "Go away, I'm playing my own game." She also recently told me she was going to marry the boy who runs the drive-through at Smoothie King. Is this normal talk for a 3 year old?
