February Flurries

Sadly, we missed capturing on camera most of February’s star events. Will’s baby blessing with 30 family members from across the country—nary a picture. Sledding in Rock Canyon with the BYU Football team and the Campbell clan—nope. (And that was even Will’s first time ever. At the tender age of two months, he’s already hitting the slopes). Caelan dragging his sled and himself back up the hill at Rock Canyon to go again and again. Nyet. Connor sledding on his tummy because he couldn’t be bothered to get a sled. Non.

We also went bowling with the Campbells and the Humes at our local bowling alley where Eric and Dad Humes had a ferocious battle. Dad Humes ended up winning by one point in a victory that both he and Eric are still talking about. Re-match anyone? The sad thing is we did have our camera, but we only got lousy shots. Connor was so intent on bowling that I kept letting him, then faced a major tantrum every time he couldn’t follow the ball down to the pins. Caelan actually beat all of the other cousins bowling-even his almost 14 year old cousin. (He surely didn’t inherit these bowling genes of greatness from his mother).

We went to the Discovery Museum and played with water, balls, Elmo, and a helicopter. We went to Temple Square with Kim and had a nice lunch during which even Eric commented that the boys had been very well behaved. (Another trait they didn’t inherit from their mother).

We went to IKEA and played around with all the boys and got a great shot of 17 or so Campbells on the couch. It probably looked funny to have people taking family pictures in the middle of a store, but hey, gotta get the shots in when you can. Yeah, we left our camera in the car.

Regardless, please enjoy these few pictures we actually do have of the past month of craziness. And yes, that snow is for real and we received another foot the day after I took those shots. And yes, it’s snowing as I write this. Sigh. Very very big sigh.
