Hart Happenings

The calendar turned and the Harts were off to the races!  It has been one thing after another.  The Spikeball Playoffs in Florida took over January and February.  3 days after we got home from that we dashed off to a soccer tournament down in St. George.  Jack and his team made it to the championship game and then won!  It was so fun and intense!  I lose at least 2 years of my life at this soccer tournament every year.  But the weather is glorious and we always look forward to it.  We got to meet up with Ruth and some of her kids who happened to be in St. George the same weekend, which was fun.

Ian got to go with us to Florida but had to miss out on the St. George adventure because he was busy choreographing and assistant directing a show that opened this past week.  He was also working on putting together audition videos for the Hale Center Theater and Pickleville Playhouse.  (He got call backs to both).

Peter had a good time this week attending the temple with some friends and then playing church basketball with them.  He loves being a deacon and going to activities every week.  At our homeschool co-op he is taking a magic class which has really piqued his interest and he has been practicing tricks everyday. He and Jack have been collaborating on some amazing engineering feats with Keva planks we brought home with us from our co-op last week.

Jack has been playing lots of soccer and Spikeball and has become Alex’s workout buddy.  He is reading a book about how Google works and telling us all about it.  He is getting some driving practice in and is quite a good driver.

I went down to Utah this week with a friend to find silk flowers to do all the bouquets and boutonnieres for Alex's niece's wedding this spring.  The warehouse is huge and filled with every imaginable flower, greenery, ribbon, berry, etc....It was overwhelming and I was glad to have my friend there to help me make the final selections.  It will be beautiful!  Lori, Grace, and Joy went on a preliminary scouting trip there a few weeks ago to see if they would have what we needed and we verified that they did indeed have absolutely anything and everything anyone would possible every need for wedding flowers.

We enjoyed spending some time with Mom and Dad when they came up for Addy's concert which was so fun.  Addy did a great job and is such a benefit to that choir.  Hanging out with Cam, Emma, and Stetson made us so happy.  We are definitely grateful that they moved closer and that we get to see them more often.

Hope all of you are surviving well and hope to see you soon!
