March 2025

Siena and Aria had career day at their middle school this year.  It was kind of last minute and we scrambled a bit but they both ended up having a great day.  Siena went to my sister Michelle's school where she is a reading aide and helped her and then helped out with the STEM teacher labs.  Aria wanted to do something animal related so we got her paired up with Lori's dog groomer and she went and helped out there, washing and blow drying dogs.  She loved it as well and it was a perfect fit for both of them.





Jaron went on his first young men's overnight camp.  They went down to Goblin Valley, spent one night and did a really cool hike the next morning and came home that afternoon.  It was super fun for them, even if they made a huge scene as they pulled into camp.




Siena finished up her basketball season. She did Jr. Jazz this year and it was fun that she was friends with  couple girls on the team.



Aria and Siena both had their 3rd quarter Orchestra and Band concerts as well as Aria's choir concert.  They always fall close together so it makes for a busy week but always fun to hear their songs come together.



Shane got me tickets to Les Mis that was here on tour.  Our seats were really high up but it was so good and the talent is always amazing.



Shane got me a TV for my birthday last year and so I was super excited when March Madness started that I could work and watch the games at the same time.  Go BYU, who had a great year!


Jaron had his last year of Battle of the Books.  His team did great but unfortunately didn't quite make it to the finals.  It's always been harder for his team to advance but I thought he did great and was proud that all 3 of my kids read all 20 books all 4 years of Battle of the Books!

February 2025

Apparently this month was almost all about Jaron, sorry Siena and Aria, not sure what you were up to but I'm sure you had an amazing month too!  :) 

February was a month Jaron had been dreading or a couple years.  He knew in 6th grade he was going to have to participate in the 6th grade Valentine's dance at Westfield.  He kept hoping his soccer tournament would allow him to miss it but his soccer team went to a different tournament this year and so he was there.  It actually turned out so fun and I think he liked it more than he thought he would.








We did go to a tournament with Jaron's soccer team.  We had a fun weekend hiking, swimming, playing raquetball, mini golf, pickleball and the girls even went go karting.  Jaron's team won one game of the 3 but it was a fun weekend.









Jaron gave his first talk in sacrament meeting and did a great job and has had some fun Young Men activities along with a camp out in Goblin Valley.







I also became a great aunt with Kali and Mason had cute little Stettler.

January 2025

Jaron received the Aaronic priesthood and was ordained to a Deacon.  I was grateful my parents could be there so my dad could stand in the circle and participate in the ordination.  The deacons have been learning to pass the sacrament and it's so fun to see them all up there taking their responsibility seriously.  Jaron looked so handsome in his new suit.




The girls made pj pants with their sewing machine they got for Christmas.



We got a new couch.  Our old couch had been peeling away for a while and it was time to say goodbye.  I had seen this couch at Costco but found someone that was selling the exact same on for half the price so I feel like we got a good deal.  400 vs. 800.


Aria started showing some signs of scoliosis like Siena has so we took her in for xrays and sure enough she has about the same percentage of curve as Siena so she will be getting a brace to and join Siena in that not so fun brace she has.


Jaron got to attend the temple for the first time.  I loved that our whole family got to be in the temple at the same time.  It was a special evening for us and we made a goal to go to a different temple each month this year.  This was the Draper Temple.




Siena won the College Bowl Goold Family Trophy this year.  This was her 2nd time winning and yay for having the trophy back in the Glover household.



Aria and I went with Brigitte and Holland to a BYU gymnastics meet.  It was so fun to watch and hang out together.
