It Came!

I've been working on converting the blog I kept while I was pregnant with the twins into a printed book...

And today it came!

I am a happy gal.

This book was a labor of love and I love being able to hold it in my hands.

Pretty Darn Cool!



Art Show at the Jr. High

Last night Lakeridge held their annual Art Show. Sydney enjoys art and has taken it for the last three years. Syd received two 2nd place, and one 3rd place ribbon. I love to watch the kids develop their talents and I am a big fan of Sydney's work. Good Job, Syd!



Trip to the Zoo

Saturday we spent the afternoon at the Hogle Zoo.

It's been a few years since we've taken the family but we sure enjoy it each time we go.

We got to spend the day with Grandma Loreen and Grandpa Wolfley which made it all the more special!

I took enough pictures to fill a sizeable book, but I guess you'll have to go to the zoo yourselves. I can't choose between them so one group shot is all you get. ;)

Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for a wonderful day!

New Spring Family Pictures

So I had an ulterior motive when I bought all the kids new Easter outfits.

FAMILY PICTURE TIME!

Fun for all, right?

Nope. Not Really.

Mostly just fun for me.

Oh, well. Too bad for them. Mommy loves to torture them with family pictures.

Actually, this was fun for all, I think.

For the brief moment during spring break when it wasn't raining and no one was puking we went down to Utah lake and took a few pics.

I LOVE taking pictures of these people!

Easter Weekend

Kaylie bought over 200 Easter eggs and filled them with candy for a self-sponsored family Easter Egg Hunt. She is a GEM!

Each of the kids got new outfits and a few fun things to enjoy spending time together.

Then we went outside and just played. It was a BEAUTIFUL spring day; warm and dry. Which was to be one of the only ones we would get for our upcoming Spring Break.

I had a perfect place picked out at UVU to have our Easter Egg hunt, it was perfect until we got there and discovered that the spinklers were on. I was disappointed until I realized that it could have been much worse...we could have discovered the sprinklers after hiding over 200 eggs! We decided to go to Lakeridge Jr. High instead.

This was a FUN family day!

Easter Sunday we enjoyed the company of my Dad and Loreen for Easter dinner. It was a pleasant day as we celebrated the ressurection of our Savior Jesus Christ.

I love Easter Weekend!



Miscellaneous March Moments

Todd LOVES being a cub scout. LOVES IT!

He was super excited to participate in his first Pinewood Derby.

He designed and painted his car all by himself. Although he never won a single race he was always thrilled when he wasn't in 4th place!

This was a family night celebration at Red Robin's.

What were we celebrating, you ask?

We were celebrating refinancing our house and saving lots of money every month.

Yay, that's worth celebrating!

And finally we had the privilege to attend the National Junior Honor Society ceremony and watch Sydney get her 9th grade honor cords and pin.

Syd, we sure are awfully proud of your hard work. Great Job!
