Lilly turned 14 in January.
We've had a crazy couple of months, so I was only able to bring some goodies in for her lunchtime.
A huge doughnut, her favorite chips, and favorite lemonade.
I was so excited Disney was coming to Wenatchee.
I thought it was Disney on Ice, but no.
It was on a regular stage.
Anthony hated it because I forgot to bring his headphones to reduce the noise.
He couldn't handle it, so I had to hold him in the walkway with my hands over both his ears.
He did enjoy the Little Mermaid part where it was "Under the Sea" and the actors all wore dark clothes, the lights were off, and they waved fluorescent sea creatures in the black light.
Josh ran for vice president at school.
Kelly helped with advertising, and he did an awesome job with his speech.
He did not win the election, but is in the student leadership class.
Because Lilly is 14 now, she can go to the almost-monthly church dances for youth.
She had Xandra go with her and they both had fun.
We were driving Aunt Di's van because Anthony and I had taken the train to Seattle for a check up.
The train was super late, then stopped in the middle of nowhere, in the dark, before we got to the Everett station. It was some kind of an electrical problem that set off the brakes and shut the power off.
I decided that I didn't want to go over the mountain on a train I was anxious about, so my amazing Mother-in-Law came to rescue Anthony and me.
We drove Aunt Di's van to our house the next day, and Andy was able to bring it back a few days later when he had vacation.
First thing to do at Nana's is find the yummy snack corner!
Then put in a movie by yourself....
Then eat McDonald's on the way home.
Maggie wanted to take apart a coconut so she could make coconut pie.
Not the best method, but we got it open. :)
Pics are out of order.
This is Maggie a couple days later, in her Christmas apron and her new cookbook.
And with the finished pie in Nana's cool baking dish!
The start of our family's 2014 visits to temples around the country.
