Springtime

Last week we took the big boys to the lake to do a little cleaning up of the yard. We all picked up sticks and twigs from the yard. After a long winter of wind, ice and snow....the yard needed a good clean up so Uncle Scott could mow the grass.
Once the work was done.....there was time for some play.

And play they did!!!

Here's the 2 little boys having their own game of basketball.

How does a toddler eat a slice of apple?.......

Here's how....he avoids the skin.

Baseball has begun for Tyler. His team is the Tigers.

In the "on deck circle".

Batter up! He connected really well and got a base hit! Oh the joys of spring!

Safety Net

We put up a safety net to keep the kids and balls from rolling into the street. Drew is trying it out for us.

I think it is going to work great! We will see when the whole gang comes over.

Easter Weekend

This is how we watched conference on Sunday. Bruce and Tiffany and family came over and we had snacks and played conference bingo.
On Saturday Brooke and I got matching pedicures.

Lauren helped me babysit while their parents went to a movie.

After the movie on Friday all the "boys" played a little ball in the backyard.

And Papa went swinging with the girls.

Tiffany already posted about Devon's big catch on Saturday. A 20 inch 20 pound wide mouth bass. Carter had to run home to get his dad and the camera.

Only a dentist would think to take this picture.

I wish the weekend didn't have to end.

Early Easter

We had an early Easter dinner the sunday before Easter because Brian and Heather and kids are on vacation this week. The highlight was the Easter egg hunt. Here's the three cool boys.

Lauren
Natalie

Brooke

Chelsea

Drew got into the craft box before the bunny had his ears.

Can anyone open their mouth as wide at Blake?

Devon was sure making him laugh!

I wish I didn't have to be in this picture....but Dallin is sure cute!!

The girls making a craft.

It just wouldn't be a family gathering without Uncle Scott bringing something

to show all the kids. Notice how attentive they all are.
This time a pretty colored snake.....

We called him the Easter colored snake.

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!
