Here's an update from the past couple weeks!
After 20 years of family dinners, card games, and lots of laughter and memories around our oak table (including Dallin slamming his fist on the table and yelling "Geez Dad" when he was three years old), we actually sold it.
This is what we will eat on until we move into our new house!
On the same day we sold our table, Michelle was celebrating her 29th birthday!
The traditional lighting of the candle continues!
On Saturday, March 12th, we got to go down to Pocatello and spend a little time with Josh and Elizabeth. We made a Costco run and then had dinner at a yummy place called Butter Burr's.
On Sunday, I traveled to Utah to spend a couple days with Grandma and Grandpa Applegate. I got there just in time for the March Applegate birthday party!
Laura hosted and the party was centered around March Madness.
Everyone got to randomly draw the name of a team to be connected with. (Go Maryland! That was mine!) Laura put together a fun basket for whoever wins!
There were a few blank spaces on the bracket, so we got to play some basketball games to earn an extra spot.
The boys are playing horse outside.
The girls are trying to make baskets on the Wii.
Laura's helping Jason.
Happy March birthdays to Dustin, Aimee, and Michelle!
On Monday afternoon Jayna got to come up and spend some time with me!
We went shopping. At the Quilted Bear Jayna found this little gem that made us laugh. Dallin used to sing this song. It made us smile . . . and miss him!
Jayna also discovered that she loves IKEA!
My purpose for coming to Utah was to get some work done on Mom's Israel scrapbook. We didn't get as much done as I was hoping--but we got a good start!
Mom also helped me mend the quilt she gave us for our wedding.
I drove home on Thursday and made it back in time to be with Dad while he did Point Guard Camp for a young woman in our ward.
Do any of these drills look familiar?!
And finally, here's a few pictures of the new house from this week!
