Hodgepodge Post!

In the process of adding Bentley's photos, I came across a bunch of pictures on my camera roll that hadn't been added to our Google account, meaning they never made it onto the blog!  And who am I to deny you any photos???  So here's a mess of pics-- in absolutely no order-- for you to enjoy!  Cheers!

Gideon, Colton, and Jason-- these boys are so cute!

Here we have a time-lapse video of the boys doing service and moving a pile of chopped wood!

At the open house for Toby Cramer's mission farewell!  This was actually really funny, because the stake seminary coordinator texted me asking if I would be there so she could bring me some seminary supplies, and I said I didn't know anything about it.  Sarah had posted the open invite on facebook, which I never check.  Kris assured me I was invited, but I never like to feel like I'm crashing a party so I demurred.  Naturally, Kris told Sarah all this and I quickly received a personal invite from Sarah!  Ah, the LDS Network!  😂 Toby is now in the Provo MTC, and will head out to Idaho Falls pretty soon!!!

Kendra on Senior Night

Kendra and McKinley (who was there with the opposing team's marching band); these two were forced to share a tent when we hiked and camped at Crabtree Falls.  There were no flat areas to set up a tent, and theirs ended up rolling a bit down the hill so that at one point in the night they realized that their sleeping bags were ON the tent door!  Stuff like that has a weird tendency to bond people, and they've been best friends ever since!

Colton climbing into the leaf igloo he and Camille built

Now that he's no longer bishop, Craig has been enjoying subbing in primary whenever possible.  Here he's having the kids tell him how to make a peanut butter sandwich, much to their delight!

You have to know some church history for this to make any sense, but I about died laughing when Bentley sent me this meme!

Camille makes good use of an Amazon gift bag!

Which had wrapped up this awesome dartboard that Natalie sent Ryder for his birthday (way back in November!  I told you I'd missed a lot of pictures!)

Kendra and Jadyn sledding

Colton and Walker got to do the morning announcements, with their buddy Leo helping!

And poor Colton had two Christmas presents that didn't arrive until mid-January!  We felt really bad for him on Christmas Day when we realized what was missing.  He was a very good sport about it all, but I sure was excited for him to finally get his presents!!!

So happy!

He'd actually forgotten that he'd even asked for this

He had NOT forgotten about the 3D printer that he'd asked for!  So that face is some pretty good acting!  😂

Craig took the three younger kids rock climbing...

And then they all watched Free Solo, which Craig assured them they are NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER allowed to do!

Here we can see May, Miller, Adam, Camille, and Mara at library time!

And working hard to clear the driveway!

Colton's throne!

I think that's all for now!
