Stocking #3

I finished Carson's stocking about a week ago. I love this toy soldier. I think he's super cute. Hope Carson likes him!

ZOO Boise

After living here for almost 6 years, it was high time we made our way to the zoo! Pretty sure the last time I visited this zoo was during a crazy-awesome field trip in Mrs. Evan's 4th grade class! It's changed quite a bit since then...for the better. But being there definetely brought back some memories. The boys did a great job. I think they really enjoyed it and took notice to most of the animals. Since we've been home, they are going crazy with animal noises. Their favorites would be the lion & monkey...umm...& doggy! It's dang cute.

Lookin' at the monkeys.

The other babes that played with us...Ella & Emery. Thanks for a fun day!

Easter Festivities!

We had a great Easter weekend, as I'm sure most of you did. We spent time with family on Saturday. We had an egg hunt, lots of candy, and lots of fun. Sunday we had a super yummy dinner with some friends, after a great morning at church. We feel blessed with our friends & family and are especially grateful for our Savior. For His life, His teachings, His Atonement & His resurrection. For without Him, we are nothing.

I love this one of Cade & cousin Austin.

The fam on top of the Huszar's mountain!!! Their place makes for the best pictures!

Me & Christy with our boys. She is expecting her second in about 5 months!

What a fun weekend!!!

Thought For The Day

Rain, Rain Go Away....PLEASE!!!

These boys are sick of being inside.

Just Playing

This is Carson's new favorite game. Here's the game, in case you're interested.
First, start in the corner of the room.
Run as fast as you can, even if this causes a few tumbles.
You win when you reach ME!!!

Getting started...
Running super fast...

Getting closer...

CLOSER...

And we have our WINNER!!!!!

Of course, Cade wanted in on the fun too.

Who knew this could be so fun!!!

P.S. Please be reassured that I am not color blind. They started the day with shirts and pants that actually matched...this is what they ended up in after their 2nd change of clothes. You know how things go!

Birthday Week!!!

Apparently, to become an in-law in my family, your birthday must be in March. And not only in the month of March, but during a certain week in March. That's right, all the in-laws in my family have a birthday within the same week.

Wynn kicked off the birthday week last Saturday. They celebrated in Salt Lake.

Natalie's day was yesterday. They celebrated in Chicago.

Shane's day is TODAY! We will be celebrating in Boise. Hopefully we'll have a fun birthday weekend despite Shane feeling a little under-the-weather.

It's a bummer we aren't all together to have a huge birthday party.

So, for any potential future in-laws our first question, and by far the most important, will probably be, "When's your birthday?"

Getting Outside

We took the boys out to our backyard on Sunday to let them run around a bit. Cade was the only one who did any running. Carson gets all nervous in the grass. I don't think he's a fan of the texture and I don't blame the boy. Right now it's dry and prickly. He sat in one spot and never moved, which is so unlike him. He is always busy, busy so it was pretty funny to watch. Cade was all over the place. He had to touch everything in sight. It is so fun to watch them discover new things. Here are some pictures.

Cuttin' Some Hairs

The boys got their first haircut. They still don't have all that much but there were those long, stringy baby hairs growing over their ears & neck that just had to go. I had my sister Lauren to help me out. This is something that I absolutely dread doing on a regular basis, but I'm not about to pay for it to have it done every month either. I better get used to it.

Flesh wound? You better believe it!

Watchin' Baby Einstein. That's the only way I could make it work.
