Let them Eat Soap

We had a pretty good weekend. On Friday Lilly and I head down to the Wales house with Kimber and Heather (and their babies) for a girls weekend getaway. It was a lot of fun and was nice to get away for a minute. Lilly did great and let me have a great night's sleep. I was pretty convinced that her and I were going to move down there for the next little while and that she was going to sleep in her car seat for the rest of her life. We could not believe how much snow there was at Wales still! We couldn't get in the driveway and were grateful for the path Michael and Jenna had carved out a few weeks ago. When we got home we went to the park to fly Sophia's glider plane that she got in her kids meal at Taco Time. She loved it and we had a good time.

We had a nice relaxing day yesterday. Lilly especially had a good time lounging in her swing.
Last night we had our friends the Chipman's from the old Provo Peak 1st ward over for dinner and games. We had a great time and it was so good to seem them again. While we were playing games Sophia and their little girl Emma were playing and eating treats. They had gotten into some Easter decorations and were enjoying themselves. A few years ago my sister-in-law Katie gave everyone a set of Easter eggs that tell the Easter story. It has scriptures and a symbol that goes with each one in each egg. Anyway, they had emptied all of them and were having a good time playing with the objects. Sophia all of the sudden started coughing and then threw up everywhere. We thought she had just eaten too much candy or something because she immediately was acting so we cleaned her up and they went back to playing. A few minutes later Emma came up to Doug and handed him the item shown below and said, "will you take this away?". It's the symbol that goes along the scripture where Pilate washes his hands of the matter. Apparently even though soap looks like candy it doesn't taste like candy (and it induces vomiting). We found the piece she had consumed later so we were glad she didn't swallow it.

I'm glad that you had a great weekend and I'm extra glad that Lilly slept well for you. Someday we'll have to have a Miller girls weekend there- without the kiddos. Lilly looks so cute in her dress and shoes. And yummy soap, don't worry Sophie I would have eaten it too. It looks delicious!

Hey it's me again! We got the crib at Walmart- where else can you buy ANYTHING in this town. Yikes. I wish we could come up with a cool name for it like "Tahr-Jeh" we'll have to think of something. It was a great deal- and the thing underneath it was a drawer that came with it- pretty neat! It rolls out and I store Jake's toys in it. It really is the best converter crib (and drawer)- for about $120 you can't beat it. And yes, the song was just for you- not the "fighting" part, but I love that "same soul" line.

Hi Jo! It's Julie (Tew). Of course I remember you! It has been interesting since we started this blogging thing to see who finds us and how they got there. Anyway, it looks like you are doing well and have a happy little family!
