3rd Week of April

Here are some highlights from this past week.  

Hudson likes to be big helper, such as pretending to air up the car tires.  Pauline and I attended another Pilates classes together; it was great!  Hudson reading a book in bed as he's waking up in the morning.

Steve took Hudson to the Aquarium while the boys were at school.  He had a blast!

Steve picked up chocolate donuts for the boys Friday morning.  Hudson thoroughly enjoyed his!

Nyles had a birthday swim party Saturday from noon to 2pm at the Rec Center.  Carter wanted to go also, so he swam as well on his own.  They even let Carter have some pizza w/ the group :)

After they got back from the swim birthday party, we changed and went to the Saratoga Springs Temple Open House.  We met Pauline and Rose and their families there.  It was beautiful!  

Family pics. Hudson smelling the pretty flowers outside of the temple.

We then went over to Pauline's house for dinner.  Steve smoked 2 briskets for us.  He started Friday night, cooked it all through the night, and finished just before we left.  It then "rested" in the car in our cooler while we traveled and went through the temple.  

The briskets.  Steve being silly.  Pauline, Rose and I after dinner at Pauline's house.

Sunday, Nyles gave a talk in Primary.  He did a great job.  Nyles w/ one if his favorite books, wearing his poncho.  Steve smoked "shot-gun shells" and chicken wings for dinner on Sunday.  We had the Thomas' and Millwards over for dinner.  It was a nice day, so we ate outside.  It was great to catch up.  We all lived in the condos/went to the branch in Midvale then moved after we each had our first kids.
