The Cut

It's no secret, I am not a fan of long hair on boys. I really don't like it on any boy. I do try and let the kids do pretty much whatever with their hair, but not so secretly hate it. Jackson grew his out for a while and finally cut. it. It was a LOT of hair. 
Doesn't he look so cute?!

I Hope They Call Me on a Mission

Leaving Twin to move to Boise was hard. I was excited for it and knew it was the right move, but leaving was hard. It was a few times leaving before I didn't cry or feel sad when I left. Grandma and Grandpa Arrington have left for 2 years to serve a mission in North Carolina. We are all excited for them, know it's the perfect place for them to be, but leaving Twin was hard once last time. 
A few weeks before they left we came to Twin to visit before they left.
We had a last family get together before they took off. It was so nice to have everyone there. Again with the teen; she looked at me this time, but had to make a face. 

After they were set apart someone said group hug and this happened. They are some of my favorite pictures. 

They will spend a few weeks at the MTC then take off for North Carolina. Saying good bye and being 2 hours apart wasn't too bad. Saying good buy for pretty much 2 years was harder and more surreal than I thought it would be. We will miss them, but know that people of North Carolina are so blessed to have them. 

Working Boys

Wendy's finally opened their lobby so we had to go and bug Camden at work. He talks a little quiet but did a good job. 


Since it gets dark still before they get off, and I don't want Camden walking home across Eagle Road when it's dark, we get them a lot at night. This night we ate at Wendy's, got Cam then ran over to Culvers to get Beck. I'm ready for Beck to have his license so he can do all of this. 

Few Catch Ups

This year we had a mega TWOs day. 2-22-22 happened and that day the school said to wear Tie, Tube Socks or a tutu. Jackson wanted to wear all three. The Gold skirt next to him is his friend. He had a lot of fun with this day.

Emery had her special night and she wanted to get her nails done with her cousin Avery. We had dinner then got manicures.
Beckham didn't want to feel left out of our picture. 
Recently the boys have gotten back into Magic the Gathering. We used to play it a lot then it kind of just stopped. Now some cousins play it as well, so we dug out our card and bought a few more. Nothing makes you feel more like a nerd than talking about the sweet cards you have and the combos you can make... I love it. 
Emery had a concert the other day. She refused to look over at me. You have to love teens.
