Bedtime Routine

 Our typical bedtime routine goes something like this: get pajama's on, brush your teeth, go potty, say family prayer, and dog pile on dad!! 

 Yes Jeff is still under there! I love that Avrey holds nothing back and tries so hard to keep up with these boys! 

This might be my favorite picture! These two have become quite good little buddies lately and have so much fun together. 

This-N-That

 One afternoon I was cleaning out of the basement when I noticed Kaden playing with the baby swing. The best part is when I realized he was singing 'I'm Taking care of my baby bubble bee, won't my mommy be so proud of me". 

 A few weeks back we took the kids to a wildlife museum in the area. We have been there many times before but for some reason it always seems to feel like a new adventure! 

Once Upon A Time...

...there was 3 little princesses who wanted to have a ball. So the two handsome prince's got all dressed up.

They twirled, danced, laughed and played.

And they all lived happily ever after!

Easter Surprises

We had a wonderful Easter Sunday! Since we have church at 8:30 am we decided to do our easter egg hunt afterwards. It was so nice to do it outside and I have to admit I loved having the kids all dressed up!

We had to break up the colors for the kids because Avrey would only pick up the pink and purple ones!

Once the kids had all the eggs gathered we went inside to open them. In some of the eggs there were quarters with a piece of paper with a letter on it. The kids were a little confused until they realized the letters spelled out Disneyland!! They were so excited when we told them we will be going there this summer!

Pretty In Pink

Our little princess Avrey turned 2!!

Every time we asked Avrey what she wanted for her birthday she said "PINK", so we did just that!

At our house we have a hard time waiting to open gifts! So after we had our pink sparkle pancakes and got our "pretties" on we were set!!

We spent the afternoon at the farm with Avrey's best friend Miss Lisa & her family!

We made sure to finish the night of right with princess pink cake! We are so lucky to have our little princess and love her so much!!

MVP #7

More then anything Trey wanted to celebrate his birthday this year with all of his cousins. Since we were in UT we did just that! We had a big football party and got our MVP suited up right with his own personalized jersey!

That same weekend is also Trey's Uncle Andy's birthday, who turned 42, and his Great Grandpa Bellows who turned 88!

After kickoff we enjoyed a delicious pizza dinner with aunt Laura's homemade root beer!

While Kaden spent a little too much time with the cheerleaders the other kids enjoyed playing football and eating treats from the pinata!

A little "Trey-bowing" at the end of the night was a sign the party was a huge success!

The party was amazing but we couldn't stop ourselves from a little ice cream treat on his actual birthday day!!

Spring Break

For the first week of spring break the kids and I headed to UT to visit family. After 9 hours in the car the boys had ALOT of energy and decided to take it out on Aunt Kelly! When things got a little out of hand Grandpa jumped in and laid the smack down!

Avrey tired from the trip and confused by all the wrestling!

We enjoyed and afternoon with Kelly and Grandma at the Bean Museum.

And a stop at the BYU Creamery for ice cream!

We also enjoyed dinner at Laura's house and sat in the hot tub!

The kids had the most fun with her roommates dog. They were not to sure about him at first and then of course could not leave him alone by the end of the night.

Jeff was able to meet up with us for the weekend so we were able to do some fun things with his family as well. Kaden and cousin Mo are always in costume!

A picnic at the park is always a great way to spend time with cousins!

We ended the trip of right with an early Easter egg hunt with Gram and...

...Grandpa's delicious homemade doughnuts!
