Madelyne Joye Mulford created a festive spirit for Valentines Day. She created more Valentines, by far, than anyone else in the family. We enjoyed a Family Home Evening where we used our artistic talents (Mulfords certainly excel in this area) to make creative valentines for all of the grandparents, married children, college kids, and in home family members.\
Tammy celebrated Valentines Day by making us a delicious heart-shaped meatloaf. Ymmmm! We enjoyed exchanging gifts on the day. She gave me wonderful sweater and shirt (red of course) and I have her the eight seasons of the Cosby show. We have been enjoying watching an episode each night before bed. And we seem to be sleeping much better! 
Amanda's basketball season wound up with a thrilling Timpanogos 46-45 win over Lone Peak. It was a miracle. Amanda played sophomore, JV, and varsity this year. She is amazing ... but we are glad to get a little break in game-going until lacrosse starts.
I coached Cam's rec league team this year, in my spare time. He is definitely years ahead in his basketball skills. He has discovered a "lucky penny" that he kisses before the game. It has worked! In the last two games he has scored 42 points (21 points each game). He could score a lot more but he isn't a ball hog. He passes a lot and encourages the rest of the team enthusiastically.

Ryan's team also wrapped up their season. He improved every game, and ended up playing almost all the time. This is an action shot right before he stole the ball. The coach said that if everyone on the team hustled and had Mulford's attitude, they would have won more games.
Here is Ryan walking to the locker room for the last time this season. I think he's found his sport that he wants to focus on. He has lots of talent and determination. He'll go far!
Seth and his friend did a great science fair project this week. They got three different kinds of soda and then determined which had the greatest chemical reaction with Mentos and why. It was an exciting experiment!
Diet Coke was the winner!
Emily and Ben are still in love and still engaged. Tammy has been organizing the wedding and has most of the details already done! We are so blessed to have her in our family!
Emily and Ben are still happy!
Tammy and I had a great Valentines Day. I took her on a "get lost road" but we ended up at the Gateway where I got her a new diamond ring to replace the one that was lost 18 months ago. Then we went scuba diving on the Great Barrier Reef (via 3-d Imax) and had dinner at the Thaiphoon Restaurant. We are sooooo happy! The weather has warmed up and we are riding our tandem again up the canyon.
Here is Tammy's new ring! The picture doesn't do it justice. It is beautiful, especially on her finger!

Yeah that Basketball is ending!!! Maybe now you will be able to find a little more relaxing time!
We love you so much and can't wait to see you in a couple months!
That's a great post to get updated on everyone. Congrats to all the ballers on their awesome seasons. And good job to Seth on his experiment -- I love the action shot of the soda explosion. Maddy, can we hire you to make a wedding card for Emily and Ben?
See you all in April!
Could you ask Seth if there are any natural labor inducers related to the mentos and diet coke combination? How about caster oil and mentos?
