I got to celebrate Mother's Day for 4 days! It was great and very busy!
Thursday...Memphis and Kayzee made a really cute project at school for me. Danny bought me a jacket I have been wanting for a long time.
Friday...Danny and I both took the day off so we could go to softball games with Danny's family. Danny's family came up for the state softball tournament. Danny's sisters that are still in high school played. They took 2nd place!!! They did amazing. Emily had an amazing hit that helped get some runs in to win the game to get into the championship game. We are all so proud of her. The Royers are just amazing at everything. I hope my kids get some of that athletic gene.
Saturday...My dad and his friend came to visit and we went to Porter's Place for dinner and yummy scones! My dad rode his motorcycle from Washington and his long-time friend rode from California and they met at my house in Utah. They then rode on together to Florida. Cross country trip on a motorcycle!!! The wives flew straight to Florida and met them there. They had the right idea because my dad and his friend had to bundle up and brave the freezing snow in the mountains. BRRRR! It was so great to see my dad. LOVE YOU DAD!
Sunday...Danny made me homemade donuts with my favorite chocolate glaze. At church during the last hour they had all the women in the ward go into the cultural hall. They had it decorated and had tables and chairs set up. They spoiled us with yummy cake and fruit. After church Danny made me marinated chicken on the grill and potatoes and carrots. Since that is basically all I can eat these days it was perfect and yummy. At church Memphis and Kayzee filled out an ALL ABOUT MY MOMMY survey and here are their answers.

That same weekend (yes, there is more) Danny's sister Nita moved in with us. She just graduated from Snow College and got into UVU for the fall. She wanted to come up early and find a job. She is living in our basement and since it isn't finished we told her she could live rent free. The job-hunting is going well. She hopefully has a couple jobs lined up. We LOVE having her around. She is so much fun and she is great help. Memphis and Kayzee ADORE her. She babysits for free so Danny and I can go on more dates. THANKS NITA! Here is a picture of Danny on one of our date nights. We have a new favorite restaurant...best ribs ever!
Memphis and Kayzee's last day of preschool at Lone Peak High School Camelot Kids is this Friday. It has been the best day care for my kids. They have learned so much and have made some friends. I am going to miss their fantastic teachers. They just had fun going on a field trip to the zoo and they had their preschool graduation. I am so glad that my school district has this program for teachers. Next school year Memphis will be going to my school for Kindergarten and Kayzee will be going to a new all day preschool at Lehi High school. I am glad that they finally opened one up there because it is a lot closer to home and will save us a lot of money on gas.
I have had a lot of blood tests done recently because my stomach issues are getting worse and doctors are still trying to figure out what exactly is going on. Got some of the results back the other day. I am deficient in a few things. And by deficient I mean I am dangerously low. One of them my count should be over 300 and I am only at a 12. No wonder I don't feel good! What is causing those deficiencies? My restricted diet and not being able to eat any food because eating those foods makes me sick. Now I am trying to figure out how to get my numbers up without resorting to giving myself a shot every day. I would rather take a pill but we will see if that is enough. That's my life right now. On a more exciting note I am chopping off my hair and going blonde like I do every spring. Pictures to come.
Danny's brother and his wife just had their first baby. Cute baby boy! We are so excited to have another Royer baby in the family. Congrats Teddy and Brit and baby Glen!!! Danny's sister Jennie and her family that lived in Missouri and his brother Brad that lived in Tennessee are moving back to Utah at the end of the month. We are excited to have all the Royers living in Utah. YAY FAMILY:)
I seriously cannot wait until the school year is over and Summer Fun can begin! Only 8 more days:)
Finally got the cute pictures my sister Annalyn took at Bear Lake for our Easter weekend. ENJOY!
