Our week

We played with cousins this weekend.  We had a good time.  This was a little game of duck duck goose.  Even Oliver enjoyed being chased around in the game.

I ended up accidently getting caught in the rain twice this week.  I feel like Marianne from Sense and Sensibility.  lol  We need the rain and it was nice to have.  The kids survived.  Leah's hair curls so much when it is rainy.  Once when I started jogging with the littles ones.  We didn't get too wet then.  The next day on the way to and from school we got down poured on.  We did end up running home as it started to come down pretty hard with lightening and thunder.

Dallin drew this character the other day.  I thought it looked pretty good.

Leah and Evan love to do puzzles.  It is cute to watch them work together.

We had a busy week, and another busy to week to follow.  The boys have their first soccer game and I have a half marathon.  Should be exciting.

Nerf Gun War

Michael's Birthday is on Tuesday so we celebrated on Saturday.  We went to the park and had hot dogs.  Michael also wanted to have a nerf gun war.  Jenny made him this cute fish cake.

Tony is taking cover.

All the little kids and Moms had a good time too!  :)

Spring Break

 The kids had spring break this week.  We had a great time.  We headed to the Arboretum with friends.  This time we went to the Children's Garden.  I have been wanting to wait for Michael to go with us, but it just never worked out.  We had a fabulous time.  I LOVE the Children's Garden!
 Joshua and Dallin loved the Tornado like winds.
 Dallin made a tornado with water.
 They have an awesome tree house with roped nets for the kids to monkey around on.  It is really high up.
 It was fun to hang with our friends.
They have a fun little toddler area as well.

Two peas in a pod.  

 We also went to the library for story time.  They made fox tails.
 We also rode bikes and played at the playground with friends.

This picture is out of order, but it is from the garden as well.  They have a whole section for the power of water.  The kids of course loved it.  Leah was soaked after playing in the water.

We had a great spring break!  The weather is perfect and we love hanging outdoors!

My Little ones at home

We went to the Arboretum with Jessica and her in laws.  We had a great time.  Leah loves playing with Thomas.  We loved the new houses they had set up. 

 I love the Owl house.

Leah wouldn't smile for me, but Evan did.

 Evan and Leah are starting to play together a little.  They both love the trampoline.
They love playing in the teepee.  They set up camp and have fun.  

It is fun seeing their personalities grow.  I love being able to be at home with my kids.  I am blessed.  :)

Evan One Year

My baby is one years old.  I can hardly believe it.  He is getting so big.  He is in the 75th percentile for height and weight.  He is weighing in just under 23 pounds and he is 30.8 inches tall.  We celebrated his Birthday on Friday with the Clark and Cruz family.  

Evan loves all of his gifts.  He plays with all of them.  He has been in heaven playing with all of his new toys.

I tried to make an ark.  ha ha  At least the cake tasted good.

We made pasta bake, aspergus, and rolls for dinner.  Evan cleaned his plate!  We love him so much.  He is so cute and cuddly.  We are happy is part of our family!
