Grandpa Russ is still needing to stay away from germs and is still pretty tired. So they decided that rather than having the whole family over for family meeting on Sunday that they would have each family pick a different day to go and have it individually. We picked Friday. Headed down there first thing after picking up kids from school. We had a nice lesson from Nate, everyone got to talk about their talents and then most of the family performed musical ones as well. Erika played the piano. Noah played the piano and recorder, Luke played the piano, grandma insisted that he play at least three songs :). Bradley passed. Kelly played the ukulele and sang. Charity played her ukulele as well and sang. I wish the three girls had played a ukulele song together. Grandpa Russ recited the poem the Jabber-walkie. Grandma played a song on the piano. Nate recited a poem he and his companion wrote on the mission. I'm not sure how I got skipped over, but nobody wanted me to play bad enough to notice- nor was I going to point it out. We played some games, then ate some yummy dinner. Then played some more games. Everyone was so excited when Grandma suggested It Came To Pass game. We played a few rounds of that, frustrating Jen in the process, and then it was time to go. It was a great time with everyone- lots of fun memories! The kids and I (minus Nate and Charity because they were headed to their Jazz game) had to stop at Seagull Book and get our own It Came To Pass game since our old one is missing too many cards to play anymore. 1-13-17
These pictures are all a little dark because I didn't want to use the flash- it's not as well-tolerated with the Mayneses as it is in Hatch settings :).
Sorry Charity, this was one of the few shots of Grandpa!
Cute Jackie randomly got down and was doing push-ups :).
So everyone else jumped on the bandwagon.
One- handed push-ups
And we talked Nate into trying it- pretty sweet!
Then of course, some sit-up competitions
Molly was Nate's handicap.
Just for the record, Jack has drawn new tiger stripes on his face every time he's had a bath. We do bathe him. He's been so proud of them, it's been hard to make him wash it off though.
Look how great this picture is! Such a hottie.
