We love MOLTEN volleyball!

The week of Valentine's Day Lindsey's coaches gave each girl a rose with this cool saying. Lindsey has the best coaches. They not only help the girls develop volleyball skills, but build them up inside. They give them assignments in their journals and are constantly giving POSITIVE feedback. We feel so blessed to have Lindsey involved in such a great program. Thanks to all!

Jump Street

Last month I took the older kiddos to Jump Street. It is a place where there are tons of trampolines and the kids can do really cool tricks. There is a section for dodge ball and let me tell you - I am glad I was watching (kids throw hard).

Dallin Edwards and Conner
Olivia Knapp and Lindsey
We decided as a teenager you have to plan to take lots of your friends there all at the same time.

Megan Lavold and Carly

They had a blast. Glad they wore comfy clothes! One hour of jumping was just perfect...expect they were starving. Stopped and visited Peter Piper.

Cousins supporting Cousins

Saturdays have turned into sport-days! We are having fun watching and playing ball. We went to Whitney's game (what an awesome team they are) and she came to Carly's game! It is fun to see them progress...both girls love to play basketball.

Why do we have to get OLD?

Sweet Grandpa Larsen is in the hospital. He went in because he was having problems breathing. Lucky me I got to hang with him most of Monday. We talked and shared stories, I read to him out of Grandma's Life Story Book.

He found out today that he has emphysema...yuck! He will probably have to have oxygen at home and the biggest blow to him...NO more driving (he told the doctors that he was still going to drive)! Poor Grandpa! He was so sweet and kind to the dear nurses and Dr.'s Monday. Whatever they asked him (This is the food on the menu for dinner, do you want it or do you want to choose something else? He would answer that is fine. Do you want water or milk? Water is fine!) I think the only thing he said that made us laugh was he flirted with the CUTE nurses and Dr.'s. It was obvious which ones he thought were cute!

I am so sad that he is having troubles breathing. He has been so healthy and strong. I hope this doesn't slow him down physically or with his happy spirit!

Just writing this makes me cry. I love him and don't want him to be in any pain or discomfort. Why do we have to get old?
