Birthday, Soccer, and Derby

The boys had their first soccer game with their new league.

They did great and seem to enjoy themselves.

Joshua volunteered for goalie and has enjoyed it.

Dallin played well and is learning his position as well.

After the soccer game we had to rush over to the derby.  Dallin's car did great!  He won many races, until tournament time.

Joshua car did great as well.  He won many races.

Dallin was a little disappointed in the day.  He lost the soccer game and then lost the derby.  Joshua took 2nd.

After that we had to celebrate Michael!  We had family come over to hang out with.

Michael wanted a volcano cake.  This is what we came up with.  It was great day!  

Spring Break

We had spring break this week.  I always have to stock up on fruit when the kids are home.  This day they wanted to make fruit skewers.  ha ha  I guess at least it is healthy.

This week was so busy for me for work, so I bought beyblades and stadium.  My boys played for hours.  They love it!  I was able to finish what I needed to, so it worked out for all of us.  

Leah had a well check so I took her and then we went out to lunch.  It was so weird to be at the doc with just her.  I didn't have to keep anyone from touching instruments or opening drawers.  It was nice!  ha ha She is right on track with growth.  :)

Michael had been wanting new furniture for a while now.  We finally went shopping.  The kids loved trying out all of the couches.  They loved the neon glow ones here.  

We ended up picking this one and not the neon light ones.  ha ha

We had to try out the massage chairs.  How could you not?  

This boy is so happy.  He is always laughing and smiling.  He is into everything and wants to keep up with everyone.

We had plans to camp this weekend but Michael and I were so tired.  ha ha It has just been a crazy month or so.  Instead of camping we invited over a dozen kids and played night games.

We fed them hotdogs and roasted marshmallows.  They all seemed to have a good time.  Michael has fond memories of night games and wants to be this a regular thing.

Right before Spring Break Dallin had his play and music program.  They did a great job.

It is so fun to watch them perform. 

On another bright note, my Dad is out of the hospital and doing well.  I am so impressed with his recovery.   

Happy Birthday Evan!

My Birthday boy!  

Evan had been in to Space lately.  I got him this projector for his room at night.  It is really fun.  It changes colors and rotates.  He loves it!

He wanted donuts for breakfast.  

We got him a really fun rocket.  He loves playing with it.

We tried making a space shuttle cake.  

We went to a space shuttle park.  It was a really fun park.  The slides were fast and fun!

My little astronaut at the park.  Evan is getting so big.  He climbs up the rock walls.  He isn't afraid to try things like that.  He plays really well with his older siblings.  He loves to ride his bike.  He is getting pretty good at writing and recognizing the alphabet.  He plays school with Leah all of the time.  She likes to pretend she is the Kindergarten teacher and will give Evan the lessons she learned that day.  It is cute!  We love having Evan in our family.  

All the kids in the shuttle, but Aaron.

We had cousins come play with us and enjoy cake with us.  Evan had a great time playing with his fat bat and we launched his rocket from the Cruz family,

Blue and Gold and other festivities

Joshua and I had our monthly outing.  He picked Dunkin Donuts.  Yum!

My kids love watching Chopped on the Food Network.  This is what our house looks likes while my kids are playing Chopped.  ha ha  Lots of pretend food everywhere.  Leah is the judge here.

The boys had their Blue and Gold banquet.  They had a Western theme.

My boys love Scouts and love their leaders.  They had a great tme.  

This baby is growing too fast.  He is army crawling everywhere and will be crawling soon.  He just barely turned 6 months, he shouldn't be crawling.  Why does my last child have to do everything so fast?

The kids had a carnival at the school.  They had a great time and came home with lots of candy.  They were supposed to dress up as a book character.  Evan picked a dinosaur.  Dallin picked Tommy from Yoda Origami book series, Joshua was Percy Jackson, and Leah was Belle.
