Moody Family Reunion

Over the Easter weekend we had a Moody family reunion in Herriman, Utah. We ALL stayed in a house together and had a wonderful time! Utah's crazy weather made us change our plans a little bit when we arrived on Friday. We headed to Jump on it! and really had fun.Eliza and Ryan trying to move around in the pit.Mommy and Talia jumping on the trampolines.Eliza and Bella sliding down the blow up. It's hard to say who had more fun...the kids or the adults!That night after dinner we had a Moody family talent show. (We have video of everyone's talent but I haven't gone through them yet so sorry if you're family's picture isn't in here!)

The Sidwars put on a great rendition of Star Wars for us!Dustin and Alanna's boys sang a great song giving us Moody history!Derek entertained us with his famous magic act...I still can't figure out why it's so funny every time he does it. Some things never get old!Dean and Sarah's girls serenaded us with a pretty song.Dallan and April's boys quizzed us on what they've been up to.Chris and Missy's family put on a synchronized swimming act!Saturday morning, after a yummy breakfast, we all headed to the park to play games. The cousins racing.Mommy, Eliza and Talia in the jumping race. We played relays, Duck, duck, goose, kickball and more. It was fun to be playing outside with everyone!

A little bit of Talia...

I would imagine most moms catch themselves thinking a little bit of quiet would be nice. And yet there are those moments when you realize it is REALLY quiet...something must be wrong! I had one of those moments yesterday. It became eerily quiet. I went upstairs and found this on my bedroom floor. Ok...not a big deal. And I did have to laugh...I'm obviously a mother of girls because in my makeup bag there are lots of girl hair bands, bows, and band aids...interesting.But because I had not found the culprit I continued the search...and found her diligently cleaning the toilet! I would much rather find her doing it like this then with her own hands in the water! What a helper!Later that night we had Oreos for our FHE treat. Here's the big girl herself dipping cookies in milk. What older sister does is gospel...and so it must be copied!

Conference watching...

We made our way up to Cocolalla for Conference weekend. It had been way too long since we'd been there!We watched General Conference while it rained and snowed outside. Here are the two sisters "watching" together!
