Fun photos from the twins
Stephanie and Vanessa sent me some great photos of their past week. They took Tiffany & Ryan some Costa food Tuesday night and played with the new set of twins for a couple of hours. They each picked their favorite twin and spoiled them all night. Vanessa says: "Steph is ALWAYS holding Lindsey. I'm ALWAYS holding Paige...so cute!!! :) Of course Lindsey is baby A and Paige is baby B."

March Madness
Greetings from Weiser!
While most of you are watching your NCAA Basketball Brackets everyday, we are just trying to keep up with our own family madness! Briana cheered the Wolverines on as the boys basketball team was robbed in double overtime by the poor officials in the game against Kellogg......whew...long story...but believe me, we should've won that one!
Briana continues to amaze us with her many talents. She recently learned to snowboard up at Brundage with her friends. She said she fell down a lot but still had lots of fun. She performed this last week at a High School Jazz Choir Concert and danced at our local carnival event called Cabin Fever. Last week a member of the Stake Presidency called her and asked her to speak in Stake Conference next week. Elder Bateman from the Quorum of the Seventy will be our visiting authority. She got right off the phone, went over to the computer and typed out a talk in 10 minutes. She's excited about speaking! Definitely her Father's child!

The twins are doing well at BYU in their work, studies and social life. By the looks of these photos, you might guess which one interests them the most!

President's Day Weekend Fun
Temperatures in Idaho dropped down into the single digits this past weekend, but we were able to endure it because of the sunshine that came our way! The sunshine I'm referring to is a visit from Vanessa and her boyfriend Ben Rucker. We really enjoyed getting to know Ben. They met in December through a friend. Vanessa flew down to his home near Palm Springs over the Christmas break for his brothers wedding. He is the 2nd of 5 boys in his family. He served a mission in Japan 4 years ago. He even spoke to us in Japanese. We were impressed! He is almost finished with school and is graduating in April with a Bachelor's in Accounting. We had such a great time! Caran invited us over on Sunday and cooked us the most divine Sunday dinner. Thanks Daly's!!
Well, we hope your February has been full of love and surprises as well! We love you all!!

The local newspaper took this photo at Baker - they said the Weiser B-Ball team was louder than the whole Baker crowd! (Hmmmm I wonder if it's because Briana is in the middle?)
Welcome to the Carr Family Corner
Since I had to post Stephanie's genealogy to our old family website, I have decided to try out this blogspot as our new family site.
Today was a brisk but beautiful sunny day here in Weiser, Idaho! Not having any snow or rain for the last few weeks have given us all a hankering for Spring. John is busy at work trying to hold it together as much as he can since most of the management has quit in the last month. He still finds time to coach Speech and Debate and even had a 1st place winner at the Kuna Invitational a few weeks ago. He's enjoying his calling in Young Men's.
The twins are having a wonderful time with their cousins in Provo. They are also enjoying their new semester with new classes and teachers. They are working alot and trying to balance the school/work/social scene. They are both dating and having a great time. We look forward to the phone calls each day so that we can hear all about their adventures.
Briana is the WHS Boy's Basketball JV Stat-keeper. The Wolverines are heading into Districts next week. Last week one of our varsity boys nailed 8 three-pointers in 1 game...could be a school record if there were any kept! Briana comes home after each game with a hoarse voice! She's their best and loudest fan! Tomorrow she is going up to Brundage on the ski bus to learn how to snowboard....yikes.....we hope she doesn't break any bones....She keeps us hoppin around here.
I received an awesome email from Tiffany...I'm so happy that she has kept her twins in so long. She is at 35 weeks and the babies are already 5 lbs.!! GOOD LUCK TIFF!! We are all so excited for another set of twins in this family!
