Parent/Teacher conference with Shay and some other things

Parent/Teacher conference was a lot better for Shay this time. Last time we were told that she talked too much and wasn't getting her work done. This time she was working so hard and doing a great job. Her grades are so good and we are very proud of her. I can not believe how well she is doing. She rarely gets less then a hundred percent on her spelling tests. She is in a second grade reading level and is doing very well in math.

Shayna we are so proud of you! Love you tons little girl!!

Friday night my Mom and I took the kids to the U of U gymnastics meet. We figured it would be a pretty cheap night out since the tickets were only $8 each. But then we decided we needed hamburgers and drinks, cotton candy and dippen dots. By the time we left there we had spent $30 in food. But it was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed spending the time with them doing something we normally wouldn't do. And the U won so that was good!

Saturday we went to Britton's soccer game.They played against nine and ten year olds and those kids were huge. Britton's team lost which ended their un-defeated score but it was ok because they played well and gave the older kids a good game. Tyler is seriously such an amazing coach. He has really whipped this team into shape. We have never had a better team and I strongly believe you are only as good as your coach. Of course I have to give credit to the kids but not all of the kids on our team have a lot of talent. Tyler knows how to use the talent they do have and make it work for the best of the team. We have great kids and I am so proud of all of them!

Sunday was our SuPeRbOwL PaRtY! I seriously do not like watching football on TV. I have never been excited for Superbowl nor have I ever wanted to go to a Superbowl party. We usually just have my Parents come over to our house and Tyler and my Dad watch the game while my Mom and I occupy ourselves with other things. And if for some reason I do watch the game I always fall asleep. Always.

This year was a little different. I'm not sure why but it was. We had an amazing dinner thanks to Tyler. We ate Turkey, stuffing, cheesy potatoes, Frog eye salad (thanks to me) and Apple pie (thanks to me). And my parents brought over a ton of snacks. Chips, dips, veggies, salsa, cinnamon rolls....all kinds of good stuff. I stayed awake during this game and I think I just figured out why. I seriously ate for four hours straight.

I'm not complaining.

I had a good time.
