Last Post of the Year, Good-Bye 2017

Good-Bye 2017.  I am ready to move on.  It was a good year, but a crazy one.  I pray we start getting good news about my health and we can settle down and have some fun.  That is what we need.

Alabama unfortunately lost!
February
Ian started high school lacrosse.  He had an amazing season!!!  He found his rhythm and made a ton of goals.  One goal won them the game in overtime.  It was great!
March
Still playing lacrosse.
April
Our daughter-in-law graduated from BYU-Idaho, and then Austin and Bree moved to Vegas.

Ian went on his high adventure.  Unfortunately because of the horrible forest fires, this was plan B.

We went to Canada to see Aubrey dance and have a vacation.

I fulfilled my dream and went to General Conference.  It was amazing!
November

December
All of my kids were home for Christmas!



Happy Birthday Ian!

Sweet 16! Poor Ian wanted a quiet birthday, but his birthday was the day before the wedding, so everyone was there.  He had a great birthday!




Christmas Eve and Christmas Day

Christmas Eve we went to church.  All of my children, and that meant a lot to me.  Also, they still let me take pictures of them on Christmas Eve.


Zach loved his plant based cookbook.  He loves to cook, and he just loved it.
Of course the Wii came out.
They love their family Christmas Gift exchange!





Christmas morning we got up and opened gifts. 





I was in a lot of pain. (I will explain that later.) So the kids pitched in and made a wonderful dinner.


It was a great day.

Christmas Eve, Eve Skating

We had to go skating the day before Christmas Eve, because Christmas Eve was on Sunday.  We went to where the Las Vegas Golden Knights train.  It was such a nice place and a great price.  We went with the Albright family, and we had so much fun.  I love this tradition.










Bridals

Then Aubrey came home with Christian and we took their Bridals at the Wet Lands in Las Vegas.  Marissa took them, and they are beautiful.
