Emily turned 10.....can I believe it????? She also had a really big week....glasses.....She does look adorable in them, but the biggest part of it is she is so excited about having them......That was not always the case, but after counting 7 kids in her school class with glasses it made the plunge bearable. The sweetest and most rewarding part is she so appreciates the fact that she can see things so much better. Like the time on the microwave from the kitchen table, and the beauty of the mountains. She is forever cleaning them and making sure we realize what time it is during dinner!!!
Kassidy finished her first year at BYU> I can't say freshman because she tells me she is technically a sophomore since the end of fall semester.....hard work from all those AP classes, concurrent enrollment and summer semester. She is going to Washington for 9 days then returning to live in Raintree. Her next big steps is to get a job!!!!
Audrey has state competition in her solo violining, she is being accompanied our one of my dearest friends and her violin teacher. She is just so excited to be going and only being a sophomore.......
Zach is planning an Avatar movie party for tomorrow night....oh he is excited. He isn't into big crowds of friends so only the normal 3 or 4 he says.
He also finished his 30 hour project for school.....writing a book....well 9 chapters and close to 100 pages.
Kevin and I are planning our trip to China. We leave on April 30th. So many things to do, and so much anticipation!!! My parents are the best...volunteering to come and stay with my kids. They want to be a part of their lives and they want my kids to know them.....which they so do!! Thanks mom and dad for all you do for my little family.....
Hopefully I will have pictures on the computer soon!

"Your most important friendships should be with your own brothers and sisters and with your father and mother. Love your family. Be loyal to them. Have a genuine concern for your brothers and sisters. Help carry their load so you can say, like the lyrics of that song, 'He ain't heavy; he's my brother.' " Ezra Taft Benson
