Valentines Day, New Sink, Talks and Grami and Grampi Visited!

We have had so much going on this month! 
It feels like it is flying by


We have gotten so much snow!


The kids have already had tons of snow days and late starts for icy roads


Tanner and his friends all wore matching shirts to school




Dinosaur Lego for Tanner's birthday from our friend


Got an Arby's gift card from Grandma, so had to use it


Trevor and I went on a date out to dinner and then went to Lowe's afterwards


I really really wanted a new sink.
This was the original one and it was so small and shallow, I could hardly fit anything in it!


Trevor installed a new sink for me



It is so nice and deep! It can fit so many dishes and now there is way more space.
I cook and bake a lot so I need the room!




Tanner really wanted to learn how to play chess so he bought a chess set.
He picked it up in no time.


Happy Valentine's Day!
Trevor got me flowers, a Twix candy bar, and some new shirts.


I hosted a Valentine's Day Girls Night Favorite Things party, and invited a bunch of girls from the ward


It was so much fun!


Everyone brought yummy food and we played games and talked and had a great time


This is the fun lighting in the living room.
Everyone loved it!


Maddie gave her first talk in sacrament!


She did great!


Grami and Grampi came to visit us!
We spent Saturday going to the gym, going on a walk, eating Panera, having a BBQ, watching the Olympics, catching up, and playing games


Grampi and Tanner playing chess together


Grampi got Tanner this cool volcano kit.
While the girls went shopping for clothes, they worked on this project. 
They made a bunch of volcanos and some of them erupted!
It was super cool


Tanner painted all the volcanos when they were done drying


Trevor gave a talk in another ward. 
We were going to go with him but ended up watching it on zoom since he had other meetings before.
He did great! 


We went to Great Wolf Lodge!


This is where the kids slept in our suite


It was really fun! 




We spent a few hours the first day and a few hours the next day enjoying the indoor water park.
It had a bunch of slides, a lazy river, a wave pool, two hot tubs, a swimming pool, a splash pad and even a surfing area!
The kids loved it and it was something really fun to do while it was freezing cold outside.



Before we took Grami and Grampi to the airport, we went on a walk at Laurel Springs park



We are so happy Grami and Grampi came to visit us!
We had a great time with them. 
We had lots of fun talking, playing and eating yummy food.


These two got some new tennis shoes!


Now they all have matching ones

And that is the latest with us!
