Primary program

Yesterday our ward had their primary program. All of Evelyn's friends are older than her so she kept waving at them on than stand and saying quite loud "there's Rachel" About half way through the program Evelyn decided that she wanted to be with her friends so she started walking up there. I told Andy to stop her but he must have known that it would be funny to let her go, so he did.  I was pretty embarrassed at first, but then all I could see was the top of her head bobbing up and down as she walks across the stage trying to find Rachel. It was funny to watch the heads of the bishopric and stake president turn, one after another, in surprise to see her up there.     I was trying not to laugh too loud, and she came back a short while later. A little while after Evelyn came back to sit with us, a boy stood up to say his part and got the hiccups. Only a few were actually loud but he was kind of embarrassed and alot of people were quietly laughing. It was pretty funny to see his head jerk back a little with every hiccup, but he did surprisingly well at keeping himself composed.

Winter picture time

Well it was time again today to go and take some family pictures. We went up Millcreek canyon to the same spot that Andy and I had our engagements taken.

This is Evelyn in her new winter coat which she just loves! she always wants to take it with her even when she doesn't need it.


Evelyn was so cooperative today, I was able to get some really great shots of her.

I set the tri-pod up for this picture, and like I said Evelyn was cooperating really well so it only took 5 tries to get a good one.

Who's lost kid is that?

Tonight Andy and Evelyn and I went out to get some shopping done. Andy and Evelyn love to play no matter where we are. Tonight at target they played tag and then hide and seek. Here's how hide and seek turned out; Evelyn runs down the aisle and hides at the end, Andy pretends he can't see her but quickly finds her. Next, Andy runs down the aisle and hides at the end. Evelyn really can't see him. She stands in the middle of the aisle, alone(I am in the next aisle not paying attention because I think Andy is with her) saying Daddy? Daddy? Daddy where are you. After a minute my brain tunes into Evelyn's voice and I realize that my baby appears lost. I notice that a woman is standing around trying to find this poor little girls dad.  The worst part of it is that Andy was quietly watching Evelyn the whole time from his hiding place four feet away. When I told the lady that we were Evelyn's parents she looked skeptical until Evelyn smiled and said "Daddy"
