Halloween Fun

Hey Calder...sorry I missed emailing on Tuesday! I actually went to dinner with a group of D6th women that Lisa Packer put together. It was super fun. They all asked about you. I’d name them off but it was like 16 women. I also saw Jen Harris last night and she was asking about you. She also wants to be on your email list. I’ll get your her address. You’ve probably seen the Halloween picks. We had a fun primary/young women’s activity yesterday in Walden Circle. It was a lot of work but it turned out great. Nothing like the D6th ward trunk or treat at the church. They had a magician, balloon guy AND a corn dog food truck. It was awesome, so we went over after ours. Haha. This was before the girls left for school this morning. Gwen’s a creepy doll and Jane’s a unicorn. Have you played Chrissy roads? This was us last night laughing at Dad’s mad skills. Of course Henry found this game...and he’s like a pro at it. More unicorn fun before the primary activity yesterday. I’m thinking I missed my calling in life and I should have been a makeup artist. My lunch date to cubby’s. My favorite! Are you missing it?!? Isn’t this do true! And yes, we had a swig run. Missed you. What do you think? This was just hung the other day. Slowly but surely we are finishing up. We closed and Winterized the pool on Tuesday. Just a few snaps shots from the week. I went with mckay to the tie shop in South Towne to get a tie for his date with Syd on Friday. It’s a masquerade ball. Mckay is stressing because Syd has such high expectations. Mckay just wants to go and mosh but Syd made sure that there would be plenty of slow songs. And she really had strong opinions about his tie. Mckay was not loving that! Hah! Hope you had a great day. I’m missing you but know you’re doing good, hard things and learning a ton. Be bold. Get her done. Make Elder Leonardson focus. Love you tons! MOM

Not A Lot of Sleep Going on Here.....

Dear Calder.... I'm finally getting to my letter. Whoa...it's been a busy last week for me, but first....the pics: Pic #1- the newly engaged couple. We are fans of Kylie. And Eth is such a great one. I know this process has been really difficult for Chad and Cec, but she's a keeper. I think it's just tricky to pave the path and Ethan is just a bit of a spacer and so he's really put Cecily in some awkward situations. I think hearts can be healed and hurts can be mended, but it's going to take some time to let go and give it to their Savior. They will all get there. Eth and Kylie came over for hot coco before they walked to the park. I felt so honored that we were included like that. This pic was taken when they returned. So fun. So happy. I'm excited. Pic #2 - cute little basketball friends. Jane and Sawyer are going waaay out of their comfort zones and playing jr jazz together. I'm super proud of them - especially Jane. Going out of he...

The Wedding

Image
Well, it happened. Ethan got married. We missed you like crazy! It was such a classic Ethan! First of all, he had a forest green suit. Kylee chose super earthy colors, so Ethan got into it and wore a super snazzy green suit. It was hilarious. The wedding started on Friday at 2pm. It was one of the best sealing ceremonies that I've ever been to. The sealer was one of our favorites that we've gotten to know through the years at the temple. The wedding was a little discombobulated though because we went to the temple, took pictures and then we had to wait until the next day at 2pm in Provo to celebrate. So, we went to Cafe Trang after the temple with our family and Gma, Gpa, Hunter and Tyler. Then they came over on Friday night. It was really nice of Tyler to come up for the wedding. When we were sitting in the temple it was so strange. I was looking around wondering where everyone was. It was just me and Dad there supporting Chad and Cec...no other family members ...

Deep In the Ice Fields of Texas!

I mean...the damage I'm seeing is for REAL! Wow! I am so excited to hear more details from you tomorrow. What a crazy turn of events in Texas. I hope you've weathered the storm and have had opportunities to serve and help those around you. As far as the Draper Horsley clan goes...everyone seems to be doing well.. McKay got his ACT score back this week. He did great and I am super proud of him. He took it without much studying. We never pulled the BYU ACT study class together and when I finally got in touch with Cara, so encouraged us to sign up for the February 6th date, even though it was just a couple of weeks away. McKay met with Cara a handful of times and got a 32. I think he feels good about it. I'll send a pic of his score breakdown. Now we just need to get him on the BYU bandwagon. He's pulling a bit of the Calder "BYU is kind of dumb" thing right now. I think he'll figure it out... Henry is keeping things upbeat and silly. He...
