Along with all of this, Baseball started. We have been having five practices a week, 3 for Brock and 2 for Parker. Cory is the Coach of Parker's team and the Assistant for Brock's. He is such a good dad. He's not playing softball this year. Even after the release from his doctor after his surgery. He said that he thinks this is the time for the kids. "it's their turn". I am so thankful to Cory for this. I am thankful for is selflessness. I hope our kids always realize how lucky they are to have him. I try to remind them everyday how amazing their dad is. Games start this week, and we have a big Moab trip planned for next week. I love this time of year.

March Madness
Oh, what a fun month March was. I am really going to do better at blogging though. I am a little behind. Okay, alot behind.
In the beginning of March, Chad and Kim moved into a new house. It is awesome! They now live .4 miles away. We can walk to thier house. We spent a day helping them move in. It was quite fun actually. But, I still can't figure out why any family of 4 needs 6 couches. I love having them so close to us.
It was especially helpful when, a couple days after they moved in, Brock decided to see if he could do 30 back flips in a row on the tramp. He over rotated the 29th just a little and landed on the bar. So, I immediately called Kim and said "can you come and get Parker, Brock and I need to go to the hospital." Kim was here within 2 minutes. Very convenient. Brock got 6 staples in the back of his head and handled it like a champ. He had them for 10 days and is as good as new.
Parker is so big. He lost his first tooth. Wow, what a different experience from his big brother. Parker was letting me wiggle it and it was so loose that I just pulled it out. Just like that, no tears, no blood, just pure joy for Parker. He told us that he was so excited that he felt like he was dreaming. What a wierdo! Then the next day came the drama, Brock had a tooth hanging by a thread that needed to come out. We had to go to grandma's house (tears the whole way there) use the "numbing stuff", and let grandma baby him to death and take 20 minutes to pull it out. Needless to say the tooth fairy is going broke around our house.
The last week of March was great. CJ and Jennilyn went to the Temple. Cory and I had the honor of going with them to buy their new "jammies". What a bonding experience. They were the first people to receive their endowments in the Draper Temple. Then, just four days later, they were sealed. Cory was CJ's escort. They were asked 3 times in the temple if they were twins. How awesome for Cory. That makes him like 7 years younger. It was fun to be there with them. We are so proud of the things they have accomplished already in their marriage and we are so thankful to have them as our little brother and sister.
On the 29th, we had a bridal shower for my cute little cousin Amber in Price. Okay, she's 25, but I can't help but think of her as the little 6 year old who use to follow me around. I love her. She is an amazing girl. We are so excited for her. She is going t
o be a beautiful bride and we can't wait to welcome Kirk into the "cousin club".
