April Priesthood Session

Another makeover Priesthood session. Dani's eye makeup looks like someone went a little crazy, but really most of it is red Easter egg dye from when Dani touched her eye while dying eggs. Doesn't Taylor look like she belongs in the Legacy movie?

Jumpin Jungle

It seems like we go to these jump houses a lot, but the kids love them and what else are you supposed to do on Spring Break when it rains and snows all week? We had anticipated going to the park several times, but it hasn't happened so instead we went to an indoor park where everyone had a lot of fun.

Easter Activities

We usually participate in several Easter Activities. The kids have already been to a church easter egg hunt and then Mark's work had activities for the kids. We will enjoy another hunt at my dad's, and are debating whether to go to the neighborhood hunt tomorrow. All this does not include the hunts the kids have been doing themselves around the living room. We decorated eggs today using a tye-dye kit. All our hands are now dyed too. JoJo was frightened of the Easter Bunny and Sam was scared too until he realized the bunny gave him candy. Now he says he likes the Easter Bunny.

Happy Easter!

Easter Eggs

We couldn't keep the kids away from the church Easter Egg Hunt. It's always enjoyable hunting for eggs.

Sam's 3rd birthday

Sam wanted Curious George for his birthday. He also really wanted to ride some cars. We thought they had some for his size at Wahooz, but alas, he was too short. It turned out to be a sad birthday when we had to take him away kicking and screaming. Instead we went to the park which seemed to appease him. A couple more years Sam.

Spending time with Uncle Matt

The kids enjoyed their visit with Uncle Matt and would love him to move back here.

Spring is Here!

I think Mark has spring fever worse than I do this year. He's been planting pansies, indoors, but won't tell me what his secret plan for them is. Then he gave us the project to move all the rocks from around our tree and bought flowers to put there. The kids helped plant them. They sure do look beautiful.

Early Celebration

Uncle Matt brought presents from Grandma. Sam didn't take his track suit off for 3 days - including sleep. We also celebrated a triple birthday for Me, Matt, and Sam at my Dad's. It's nice when we can consolidate them. Sam of course got to blow out the candle's.

Matt & the guitar

Grandma brought Taylor a guitar last time she came. I didn't think it would be too hard to figure out how to play it and teach her. The harder I tried, the worse it sounded. Luckily Uncle Matt came for a visit and showed Taylor some of the basics. Now she's on her path to becoming a real rockstar.
