The rest of 2019



In February, Jessica got to go to Washington DC with her Youth Prevention Coalition and 
TAKE A SELFIE WITH THE SURGEON GENERAL!



Amanda went to an 80's school party!


Jessica went to the Sweetheart's Dance!  She and her group did a sledding 
day date beforehand and had tons of fun!



St. Patrick's Day- Melissa Style







Basil and Missy really bonded



Grandma and Grandpa came for Amanda's 12th Birthday!

Nat made her an incredible Lion King cake!

And we played Quelf!



I finished this cross-stitch for Kimi's fam!


We went to Springville for a bit of a family reunion at Bonnie's house and had a blast!  Then the next day we went to Hogle Zoo!





I taught the 5-year-olds at church and they were so fun and cute!  Every week they would hurry ahead of me to our classroom and hide under the table. 



My parents got their mission call to Canada!


We found out at the last minute (thanks to Nat!) the Missy's favorite author Brandon Mull was doing a book signing at SUU!  We told him about Missy and her friend's plan to kidnap him and force him to write more Fablehaven books, which was fortunately rendered unnecessary when he started the Dragonwatch series.  He said he liked her creativity!



On July 4th we continued our new tradition of going to the Lake at the Hills.





We had a fabulous Rowley Reunion!!


Best Part: Pirate Murder Mystery Night!









Also super cool: Family olympics and talent show!




Jake the stuffed cat required some surgery, and Melissa took on the task.




Melissa turned 15 and Josh turned 19!


Melissa made the fondant flowers for her cake!





Tanya and her kiddos came through town and we met up at the Greenshow!


Jess started 12th grade, Melissa started 10th, and Amanda started 7th!



Jess turned 17!

Jess entered some art in the fair and got first place! (hers are the top right and bottom left)


Melissa marched in the Labor Day Parade!


And Jess was on the ICTAD float!



Natalie turned 21!


We had our Fall picnic inside this year!  Pretty sure there was a reason for that, 
I just can't remember what it was.

Jessica and Max went to the Sadie Hawkins dance!



I finished another cross-stitch!



Amanda was a cat for Halloween, and Missy was a crazy cat lady!


Cherise and her boys came to visit!

We went to the Homestead Christmas Festival as always!




We got to go to the Conference Center for the Christmas Devotional!  
It was our first time inside and it was so cool!




Jessica and Max went to the Winter Ball!


And we had a wonderful Christmas!
