Bob's birthday

-
Bob's birthday was on January 19, which was also Martin Luther King Jr. day. We went to a march that was for Martin Luther King Jr. in the afternoon, and we also went shopping to buy him birthday presents and ingredients for his birthday dinner. For his dinner, we made caper pasta, and BYU mint brownies. Bob doesn't like cake, so the brownies were the replacement for cake. This is a picture of Bob blowing out his candles:


Mom, Josh, and I went to Walmart to get him presents and we bought him a vocabulary game called Last Word. We thought he would like it because he bought it for the Bretones's for Christmas:
Laura and Paul went shopping to pick out some presents for Bob and they got him all sorts of fun things, like books, hot chocolate, candy, peace sign pins, and lots of other stuff. Here is a picture of Bob holding up a book Laura got him called Bird by Bird:

Afterwards, we all played Last Word and enjoyed each other's company. It was a very fun day, and I hope Bob had a happy birthday!!

Amy's braces

On January 6th, I got braces from my orthodontist, Dr. Edwards. He said I will be wearing them for about 3 years. My teeth were very sore for the first few days, and all I could eat was stuff like yogurt, soup and other soft food. He tightens the wire on my braces every month, so I will expect to be sore for a couple days each month. This is a picture of me before I got my braces: And this is a picture of me with my braces:

 Mom and I went up to the northwest corner of our beautiful state of Wyoming.  First, we stopped overnight in Grand Teton Natl Park .   it was a very short cabin (and an original settler's one) it was a little smoky. Next we drove to Mammoth Hot Springs in the NW corner of Yellowstone NP. we had a ton of elk right in front of our cabin! Buffalo everywhere in Lamar Valley, where a few of you went as 4th graders. The bull elk comes into town....ready to fight for his mating ritual Next we went on the BearTooth Highway, which reaches nearly 11, 000 feet and usually has mountain goats. Next we headed down to Old Faithful and the Geyser basin.  it was truly amazing! one of our favorites--Sapphire pool! Some of you may remember Riverside Geyser Good Old Faithful....erupts every 90 minutes, but only lasts about 3-5 minutes a new find--Castle Geyser--it went off for 20-25 minutes! our cabin at Old Faithful Lodge Our last stop was in the Canyon and Falls area ....
