BYU tour, Pineview Reservoir, and brave talking

Toby has been begging me for a few weeks to be able to be in charge of "typing the blog". We've looked at a lot of my blogs together as a family, so he knows the general setup. He told me what to type for each picture, including exclamation points and "skip that one"s. I added some parenthetical info for clarity.
Thumb war.
Magformer head for Alice.
The girls are coloring and the boys are playing a card game.
The boys had fun with the pools.
We found a rose in our garden. (Our first one from a plant Paul transferred 2 years ago!)
Charlie playing legos. (In his empty closet. All the boys' clothes are hanging on his bed, and their shoes are along the walls.)
(From our garden!)
Shave ice on Thursday.
Pineview visit.
Our family played in the sand for a bit.
(Our date at Mueller Park forest this morning.)
Charlie in the garage. (Paul had a date with him fixing up an old pocket knife.)
Danny was too hot.
Labeling all the states with how many counties they have. (He knew all those from memory.)
All finished! (He asked to look at a list of the ones he didn't know, then completed it from memory.)
The boys were shirtless.
Alice.
Alice and the boys doing pushups.
The game closet. (I organized it!)
Toby was really good at the dentist.
Doing JD.


(Garden harvest.)
Alice was playing in the pools too.
Indian chicken.

Wednesday breakfast. (Made by Charlie.)
(Alice at the doctor.)
(The boys had friends over.)

The boys and the Brimley boys in my room.
Coloring.
Grace was sitting. (At the bench in front of the ASB where Paul and I talked for a long time after our first date.)
Grace.

Grace on the letter U.
(BYU Museum of Art.)

A really cute song called Worries. (You can see here how he knows lots of song lyrics, but doesn't really get the comprehension part very well. And he makes up words.)
The girls had shave ice and they matched.
Toby's shave ice was cotton candy.





Toby and Grace on the stage.
Cars out on the street. (On the way to Pineview.)
Swimming in Pineview.
Toby was cold.

Charlie got buried.

I love Newsies! (She went with Grace today.)
