March is complete with a special baptism day!

 This is what we have been up to! I was the PTA lead for the Conquering Cub Awards, and here I am awarding medals to the kids, including Graham in this photo. That was neat to be involved with!

 I also put together a scout merit badge pow wow for our ward. We had 11 boys attend and tons of parent presenters, and a lot of hard work by everyone. I was SOOOOO glad when it was over!

 Graham found a very cute puppy to play with, and there was an older dog as well, which made it very exciting!

 Carson's band performing in the state junior high band festival. They were one of the top 15 bands in the state, and they did excellent on their pieces this day.

 Here is Carson getting ready for the sight reading portion of the day.

 Kate and Graham playing together at the Leonardo Museum. We played hooky and watched Carson's band and then spent a couple hours here. It was a great day.

 It was the annual neighborhood Easter Egg hunt - and Graham searched for eggs, Kate hung out with friends. It was actually a beautiful day, and fun to be out in the sun.







Graham was baptized this month!!! What a special day. It was so wonderful to feel such simple and pure faith. I was overwhelmed by the spirit. The cousins all sang "Gethsemane" together, very touching. I so much appreciate them all doing that. He is a mischievous boy, who gives incredible hugs to his parents and grandparents. He tries to read his scriptures and say prayers.

Graham was sweet and good, and longed for his turn to be baptized. I am so proud of him!!! This is our baby, and it feels like the end of some pretty sweet times. That made it all the sweeter.


After the baptism, the Iversons went night skiing at Brighton. We had a great time, Graham LOVED skiing with Payne. It was fun to see Mason and BJ pull tricks and hang with the family.

 Kate and friends making cookies - like usual.

 Crescent Booster night. This was a cute night, Graham was so excited. He even won the book fair raffle, perfect for him, it was a dog theme.

 Audrey's team winning in the 4x400 relay at the Corner Canyon Tri-meet. We watched her take 3rd in 1600 M, 1st in 800 M. Very fun afternoon.

 Graham's first t-ball practice. He is sitting on the bench with his T-ball backpack on. He is so excited, he has been out playing with Chad several times to get ready.

Easter Egg decorating. We're ready for Easter!

February Fun and the Trips to St. George

St. George for the Liverpool Tournament. Audrey played hard, but had a bad cold and a fever. She did her best, but we were glad when it was over.

Keeper McKenna has 13 stitches between her eyebrows after hitting the goal post with her head trying to save a goal. Her injury ended their first game in the tournament and was very dramatic. She is so awesome. Despite blood squirting from her head, she only started crying when she found out that she couldn't play anymore.

Audrey's Liverpool team. They had a tough tournament. Never scored any goals and keeper required paramedics to tend her and 13 stitches. There were so many new girls, it was also very confusing to even cheer for them. They now need to get to know each other and become a team.

Chad and I went to the Killers concert together with some friends. It was a little crazy for us, but very fun. We were glad that we got a chance to go.

Audrey goes to the Sweethearts dance. Here she is with Josh, her date.

Here is Audrey's whole group of friends that went to the dance together.

 I got to help with a craft for Graham's class Valentine's Party. Here they are creating their Valentine's project.

Tournament #2 - St. George over President's Weekend.

Here is Kate's soccer team, celebrating their win following their first tournament game in St. George.

Here we are walking through a slot canyon during a little spare time in between soccer games.

Here the boys are playing on red rock.

 We found a little sand to play on.

This is the glitter pit - Graham is excited to dig for treasure! There is a ton of Gypsum here, and very cool to find and play with.

Kate, playing in the tournament championship game. They won!

Tournament champions!!! Way to go girls!

Here are some friends.

Audrey's team won their tournament, also. She was guest playing for a Sparta team, and got a ton of playing time.

Audrey and Adriana - both guest playing for Sparta.

Graham's birthday party - a glow in the dark party. Here is the gym all set up - and below are the boys playing glow in the dark games. It was a ton of fun.

Here is Graham blowing out his candles on his cake.

Celebrating a few days later with just our family. Happy Birthday, Graham, 8 years old.

Going to scouts with Carson. Carson helped Graham get dressed and escorted him to cub scouts. Very cute!

Carson getting ready to go on Scout camp out to Goblin Valley. This is his last camp out for his last merit badge. He is now ready to apply to be an Eagle Scout!

Here is a project I helped to hang at the Elementary School. These are individual hands that the kids decorated to represent themselves. We then hung them all on this tree. It turned out pretty cute!

Tournament #3 - Las Vegas for the Heat Invitational.

Here we are in Las Vegas for another soccer tournament. Hanging out pool side.

Graham jumps in. It is actually very cold. He is being VERY brave to jump in!

Hanging out in the Paris Casino.

More Paris Casino.

Audrey's team at the Heat Invitational. They won 2 games, lost 2 games. We are proud of them. They struggled in their last tournament, and it was good to see them pulling it together.
