Pie Eating Contest

Brynlee was a Principal’s 200 Club “Ten In A Row” winner again! (previous ones of Brynlee here and Ashlee here...Brynlee also got to play the Wii one time but I didn't take pics) This time the activity was a pie eating contest with the Principal and the 10 winners. The older group (4th and 5th graders) went first and didn’t use their hands. It was HilARiouS! I wish I would have gotten pictures of that one. Brynlee’s group used their hands and poor Mr. Markworth had to eat another pie. He asked for adult volunteers to take his place but no one took him up on the offer!

My camera stopped recording in the middle so it’s in two parts (warning: turn down the volume or you'll get an ear full of screaming elementary school kids).





Afterwards, I was talking with Brynlee and she said, "I think I'm gonna throw up."

Easter Weekend

We spent Easter with Rob's family down in Draper. We drove down between the sessions of General Conference on Sunday and enjoyed spending time with family. After conference was over and dinner preparations were made, the kids did an egg hunt and then the yummy feasting began! Thanks to Christie for the pictures since I was lame and left my camera at home!

All the cousins (although all not interested in taking a picture)...


On Monday we braved the weather forecast and went to the Hogle Zoo. It did hail on us towards the end of the visit, but hail was much better than pouring down rain! The kids loved seeing the animals, especially the baby elephant. It was so cute! Trevor still talks about the baby elephant...baby. elephant. so cute.













After the zoo, we left the kids at Cheryl's house and did a little IKEA shopping. We got a dresser that I've been wanting for awhile...got it home and started putting it together and we're missing a piece to one of the drawers...ggrrrr! But I still love it! We'll just have to make another trip down, I suppose! I also got some new running shoes at SL Running Co. I registered for a HALF MARATHON with some friends. Excited but nervous! It was a good Easter weekend.
