Birthday Party

Broc had a birthday party at the pool with some of his buddies from school, it was way fun. He had pizza, punch, cookies and presents. They wanted to just swim they did not really care about the food they just came for the fun. That was the easiest birthday party ever and everyone had a good time. I will attach some pictures in awhile.

Priesthood

Today Riley was finally ordained a teacher in the priesthood. We did not attend church to often last year and so he had to wait awhile. Grandpa Marchant ordained him today in teachers quorum this afternoon, it was really nice of him to come to our church to give Riley the blessing. Grandma Marchant, Rachel, and Great Grandma Elaine were there as well. Riley and I really appreciate everyone that supports him. I am so very thankful that we have someone close to call to give him these priesthood blessings as Riley gets older. I am proud of Riley and the choices that he makes to attend his meetings and strive to live the gospel, even if I push him a little to do so. He has many examples on the Marchant side that he looks up to and it is such a blessing to me that they are there to be an example. Riley is such a good boy and I love him so much I can hardly believe that he is fourteen. I hope that he chooses to stay close to his Heavenly Father so that he can always have the priesthood in his life. Keep up the good work son in all that you do and remember what I always say, remember who you and and where you came from.

Happy Valentines Day

I had a really nice Valentine's Day, because it was on Saturday this year it was great and did not feel rushed to get things done for my family. I stayed home with the AJay and the kids most of the day. The kids done their chores which I really appreciated. For breakfast I made them waffles, with strawberry syrup and whipped cream, eggs and bacon, it was way yummy. For dinner I made filet mignon, shrimp, king crab legs, roll, baked potato and broccoli, and for a special treat I dipped strawberries in chocolate, for the kids and I. AJay got a plate of rice krispy treats, cause he doesn't care for chocolate. I am sure I will pay for all of the calories later but it tasted so good. I love my family so much and I was glad that I had the whole day to be with them and told each one of them that I wanted them to be my Valentine. Here are some pictures of the meals that I made.....







Happy Valentines Day to everyone, hopefully it was enjoyable for you all.

Utah State Jr High Wrestling Tournament

Last weekend, Riley, my dad and I went to Richfield to the Jr. High School State Wrestling Tournament. Riley started wrestling about a month ago and has learned quite alot. He has improved a great deal, he did not do very well at the state tournament, but at least he went. Riley's football coach wanted him to wrestle and do other things during the year to stay in shape and improve his body strength for football. So the wrestling coach talked him into wrestling, it is a tough sport and I just encourge him to keep at it. I am so proud of him for giving it a good shot and going up against all those kids, most of which has been wrestling since they were tiny. Keep up the good work and keep trying.
