    Did I already Post about Disney?

    No Comments

    We had the best time telling Tiago “Please watch your childrens,” while we waited in line and he would let you know that he had no childrens. It was a great time waster.

    Our LEGS were so tired by the end that none of us could stand up. We spent most of the 3rd day finding a place to SIT while we waited in line. We ended up sitting on the ground a lot!

    We had a few experiences where we had bad luck BUT we seemed to find a way to turn it to good luck. We tried to use a fast pass and then the ride broke so they gave us a fast pass to anything. Of course we had to use it on Cars and then Cars broke when we were on it so we got to go again! So… we got to go on that ride 4 times instead of 2! Another time we were able to get on our favorite rides with the wrong fast pass :^ and we had a short line to see Mickey and we were the last ones in to the Frozen show but Cali and I were sneaking one more Roller coaster ride but we were finally able to get Ben to come out and let us in the back door. We avoided tears by miliseconds on that one.

    And now we look FORWARD to our next Disney Trip – 2022!?

    Cali really wanted to earn all of the “belts” for recorders at school but she was a long way away. She earned 4 belts this last week to make it happen!

    Millie and her preschool had a fieldtrip to the BYU Bean Museum. Tiago and I decided to go with her. We had lots of fun looking at all of the animals and being silly with all of the kids.

    Discovery Park

    Pleasant Grove Utah

    The park is going to be rebuilt this summer! So we played our last play and then they tore it down this month. They are supposed to rebuild in May. Benji got to help with the screws that will be used to build the park. Community volunteers will be building it. I’m excited to help a little and see the final product.

    Soccer is in Full Swing

    Ray is on the Stingers – but we renamed them the Pinapples – they are still dominating. Rose is with Gentry and Ellie on the Pink Panthers. She has a great change of direction move and can shield with the best of them. Cali is playing with Anna on the Stars. They had a GREAT game on Saturday. They won like 10-0! Cali played great D and even some goalie. Benji is on the Grey team with Pacen. He has been playing a lot better this season. When he remmebers to be aggressive he can be really good.

    I took Rose to the Dr and she got an inhaler. This was her first game using it and it helped! She was able to breathe easier and she scored 2 goals!!! Benji has also been using an inhaler for the last month.

    Benji’s Eagle Scout Project!

    No Comments

    Benji did his project during April. He got 70,000 screws from PG City for the new Discovery Park. As a family we painted the yellow ones. Then he had the Teachers Quorum come over and paint all of the red ones. The next week we grabbed the Falabellas and Anna and finished with the blue ones. We got them all painted and dropped back off at the city this week. Now he needs to do the paperwork and everything else and make it official!
