Jared got up early and went to the temple. I wanted to go with him, but James wanted me to stay home with him. He's said that the new film is awesome.
Emmy and Addy loved playing ping pong. I bought different colored balls and they gave all of them a name. There was Gumdrop(pink), Lucky(orange), and Lemon Drop(yellow). Lemon Drop died today because James Hayden hit him too hard. The girls decided to give Lemon Drop a proper burial.

Ping pong pals.
Everyone went to the ski run today except for James, Molly, Ruby and me.

The plan at the ski run was for all the adults to rent bikes and mountain bike down the mountain. Tricia brought her own bike (Titus) and was the only one who actually rode a bike. It cost too much to rent bikes so Darrel and Trina rode the left, but it was cold and started to rain so they went to Greer.

When everyone returned from the ski run, Anna went to the clubhouse where she has spent most of her time and they younger girls went flower picking. Here is a bouquet Cassie Barney brought to me:

In other news today: Rowan, James, and Jackson played poker.
Emmy, Anna, and Addy played Five Crowns.
Girls and Five Crowns, Jared and the Ipad.
Again, Jared cooked dinner, teriyaki chicken which Tricia had marinated, rice, and grilled asparagus. Darrel did the dishes for the second night in a row.
Addy and Emmy had such fun together. They found a walking stick and named him "Nick the Stick." Also, Emmy says she wants Grandpa's walker when he is finished with it. She wants to do arm lifts on it so she can be buff and strong.
Molly and Ruby cover their legs in bandaids because their legs had "itches" from walking in the grass picking flowers.
Molly said to me: "Grandma, do you have any pretend babies?' I think she meant baby dolls.
James helped Rowan put his Lego set together.
Just hangin' out.
