No More Ice Rink

We put the girls to work today after school taking down the ice rink! They were good little workers even if they complained a lot!

Mallory's Hair

A few of the many hair do's of Mallory!! I just love how she can do so many cute hairstyles on herself!! 

Mallory has been asking for a mannequin head for her birthday so she has a head to practice on (Hayley and Brittney won't let her do their hair very often). In talking to my neighbor, I found out they had a mannequin head that they just gave to us (I really tried to pay for it). The girls have been having fun doing her hair--the head scares us every once in awhile too!

Team BBQ and Glow Stick People

Tonight we had a Utah United Team family barbeque at Hailee Grieco's grandparents home in St. George. They were so gracious to invite us all over. Everyone brought something to share and we had a great time. The girls and all the siblings made themselves into glow stick people. We walked up the street and got a lot of honks from the cars passing by. It was a fun night!

Sunday in St. George

Today the girls and I went to church with Darinda and Stacey's family. We kind of surprised them at church- we didn't tell them we were coming. Scott got sick last night-- everything has finally caught up with him so he stayed back at the hotel. 

This afternoon, the girls and I went to the St. George Temple and visitors center. 

We also went to the Brigham Young winter home and had a great time. Mallory loved taking pictures for us. We learned some interesting thing. 

St. George Ice Breakers Tournament 2016

We went to St. George for the  annual St. George Ice-Breakers tournament for Mallory and Hayley. Last week, Mallory, Hayley and Sarah Strong made a plan for the weekend! Too funny! I wonder how many things will actually happen!!  

"The Plan" Mallory, Hayley and Sarah made

We arrived Friday night about 9:30. There are several other families here at the same hotel and the girls have loved that. Their first game today they lost 5-2. We were a little rusty the first half-- trying to remember how to play outside. By the time they remembered, it was a little too late. Mallory made both goals in the first game.

The second game was a lot better, we won 5-1 and Mallory scored two of the goals. The girls swam last night and had a scavenger hunt and had a great time together. We bought pizza at the Domino's Pizza nearby and the girls enjoyed eating and swimming and moving from room to room! Good times!
