YW

Young Women's - my sweet friend Bonnie took these of our YW group singing together on Sunday.

 We were missing some, but we braved it and got up and sang together. 

 Each week the girls choose an activity that is balanced between four categories - spiritual, physical, social, intellectual. This week they chose to do an ice cream drop and try to make sundaes on each other from different heights.

Florida 1

We went to Florida for a week! It was AMAZING! The weather was great, company was great, flight was great.....

Jack and Jane (Levi's great grandparents) gifted us tickets to Legoland and a night at a fancy hotel for the trip. It was so much fun. The park was basically empty and so we enjoyed no lines. 

Angie and Stan even drove to us and went to dinner next to our hotel! It was amazing food, and we were so beat that it was such a blessing that they came to us. 

We got to see so many family members while in Florida. 

We did miss seeing Tyson and Ashli who were in Disney on a special trip for Tyrone while we were so close. 

Hotel workout room.

 After day one. We went back the next day as well!

 Mermaid Coraline

 Our flight went out the same day that Jack and Rene's came in so we got to visit with them for a bit. Kelsey is the hostess with the mostess these days! Her house is so perfect. She has lots of space, fenced in back yard, and a swimming pool that she overly spoiled us and heated to almost 90 degrees!

 We went to the beach twice while we were there. It was only 20 minutes away.

 Clairana with Lotte

Everyone except Cecily she was too little for this one.
