Spring Break



I am back from a long trip on a bus. That's right, a bus. Lyndsey and I went to New York City with her high school band. Let me tell you that from Topeka, KS via Arrow bus company, it takes 31 hours to arrive. I have not been shy about hiding the fact that I did not enjoy the bus ride. But I did my best to happy, for the sake of the kids. I know that they all had fun! In the Big Apple we saw many sights, played hard and slept little. While we were gone Clint took Justin, Zoe, Zach and Reid (Justin's friend) to St. Louis. They had a great time. Here are a few picture highlights:
Ok, this first one is a "you had to be there moment", but is for all you John Lennon fans.


Tim is showing off how much he looks like a monkey :)The Chrysler Building


This is a game called how many hotdogs can Tim eat in a minute.

Our band took second place and received a trophy that is only about 6 inches shorter than my daughter...


Ok, here is the St. Louis contingent:

February



I can't believe that we are almost to spring break time. February flew by and it is almost time for Lyndsey and I to pack for our trip to New York!! Reflecting back, I can not think of much that has happened here. The boys have finished up wrestling club, the girls are attempting to get along through makup and fashion.




One very happy thing happened during February. Lyndsey's friend Tim was baptized!! He has such an amazing spirit and he has thrown himself into learning all he can about the gospel. Clint was honored to do the "dunking". Here are some photos of the fun event.



I will post again after our trip (unless something exciting happens).
