Wasatch Back Relay1

I know it is way late, but I haven't checked the blog for a while. What I dummie I am. I am going to start urging everyone to check it at least each day. I love it. Our big anxiety is observing the preparation for the big relay. Boy, I have to tip my hat to these kids who are doing the running. Some of the runs are soooooooooo difficult. I will just keep my fingers crossed and keep praying. Wish you could all be there to cheer and holler for our family. I am so proud of Dallas, Joni, Angie and Abby! Wow! They are stellar examples of determination and committment. Let's all give three big cheers!!!!!! Hip hip Hooray! Hip Hip Hooray! Hip Hip Hooray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gooooooooooooooooooooo Legstrong Armstrongs!!!!

An update from Duvall!

I just wanted to share a few photos and let you all know that we are all alive! We've been in our house for almost 2 weeks now...and thanks to Mom, we're almost "there"...thank you SO much Mom! So, here are a few photos of the last month or so...

Tyler's birthday party...or should I say Darth Vadar's b.day party! The kids had a great time helping me get the decorations. They were so excited to have a Star Wars party! We found these masks, and just couldn't pass them up! And yes, that is a Darth Vadar holding the "red light saber" candle too!
This is a photo of my little Ruby...in all her glory on our "patio" in the appartment. She loved going out to "play" in the backyard, which just consisted of walking in and out of the sliding door. She was awesome to never venture into the grass...until the day before we moved out! The grass was still a bit SOGGY and she was covered in mud...so wonderful!!

In this photo of Lucy you'll need to look at her lashes extra close...yes, she has put mascara on for the first time. I've been trying hard to keep her away from wanting to wear make-up but she is a girl and really wants to wear it! I let her use powder and that has been sufficient--until this day. She had been playing with her dolls in the bathroom-doing their hair and such. I didn't think anything of the length of time she was in the bathroom-she loves to take care of her dolls and does it all the time. So, she walked out of the bathroom one day and was just playing...and I looked at her...and her eyes were so striking! I thought, wow, she is beautiful!! Then I looked a bit closer...she had found some mascara that I had discarded earlier that day...and put it on! There was no mascara anywhere but on her lashes--she did an awesome job putting it on! But, then later as she was sad, she learned why little girls don't get to wear mascara!! Yes, it runs down the face!!

Anyway, just wanted to share and say hey! I feel like I'm finally getting back to "normal". I even moped and vacuumed the floor today-which means the boxes are less and less!! YEA!! Oh, and guess what, I am going to be published in another magazine in November!! YEA!!!! xoxooxoxox

Shelby here!

Well hi! This is Shelby. I am currently finding ways to avoid studying for my anatomy midterm...For some reason I can't post on this blog so I decided to use my mom's name. You guys are probably all dying to know what's been going on with my life! I am doing spring semester at BYU. I absolutely love anatomy and pretty much live in the anatomy lab with the cadavers...SO COOL! If I didn't want to be a mom I'd probably want to go to med school. Just thought I'd put some pictures up so you guys can see what I've been up to!
Here's me and some cousins on conference weekend when Austin came up to visit. Skipped class to play Risk...I dominated...until Austin undermined all. It'll be nice to have him back to kill us in games at reunions again.

This is me and a bunch of my good friends wearing XXL BYU Faculty t-shirts. Probably taken in the early hours of the morning...we had so much fun together our last nights in Heritage!



And this is Curtis and I. If you don't know who Curtis is by now...well, you should. Haha.


Well, I love you all! Time to study!

Dallas' Concert

Just returned from another phenominol experience! It was the UCA Colage concert at the Cathedral of the Madeliene. Hooray for the UCA!!!!!!! It was just fantastic! Dallas we are so proud of you and the wonderful talent that you have. We are thrilled to have you a part of such an extraordinary and gifted group! The music was so difficult, I can't imagine how anyone could possibly learn it. Foreign languages and all. We were transported to a higher realm as we sat there feasting on this wonderful music. Thank you for all the hard work that you personally accomplished. Few know just how much effort it really takes to perform this quality of music with the expertise that the UCA perform. Another great thing is that we get a chance to hear it again tomorrow night. Congratulations and kudos to you, dear son! xoxoxo Mom
