This is really embarrassing! Although I am writing this blog to keep as a journal, I am not well at keeping up on it.  I would really like to have a place that my kids can go to someday, and remember all the things that once went on in their lives.  So we will start with a yearly round-up of memories from 2015.

January 2016 - can't remember what we did, probably skiied a lot at Nordic Valley! Simone in 2nd year of school at WGU, and serving in the Primary Presidency in ward.
February - celebrated Valentines Day as a family by going to see the Wedding Singer put on at Northridge High School! Great play!!!
March- my friends from the neighborhood had a surprise b-day luncheon for me at Zupas!!  Caprice and Remy started tumbling at Pitcher's sports.
April- Adrienne's baby Landen was born April 19th! Cutest baby ever!! We also celebrated Easter with the Geyers, and the whole Whitney family at a rental cabin in Cedar City Utah! Super fun!! Saige got driver's permit- ahh!

July- 4th of July in Logan with Brett's family, who recently moved to Utah- took all the kids and cousins to Bear Lake and played in the lake and sand!! Probably one of the best things that happened all year!! Went to Victor, Idaho and stayed in a beautiful rental cabin for the Whitney family reunion! Saw Yellowstone, played tons of games, bike riding, played with cousins, visited museums at Jackson Hole, and went to an awesome entertainment/dinner show!
August- Angel Wagner's family visited- went swimming, played games (of course), and put pennies on the train tracks to get smashed! Hiked to Timpanogas Cave in American Fork canyon.  School started.  Saige started 10th grade at Northridge H.S. in Layton! Benson called as Elder's Quorum President in the ward.  Caprice was in Weber city parade with her friends in student council at High Mark.  Went on a ghetto camping trip up at Monte Cristo in Huntsville- was so hot that we decided to use our air mattress to go down the river.
