Fun in the backyard

Kyle is learning how to crawl!

This is Jacks birthday present. We gave it to him early.
Eric got me this hummingbird feeder for the backyard. He thought I needed a little more excitment in my day. So far, we have not seen alot of action.

New Blinds

We called our personal handy man(erics dad) to come help. Of course Jack was right in the action.
Finished product.



The other day Eric made shish-ka-bobs for dinner. Very tasty. Still enjoying the BBQ...Thanks In-laws.By the way, Eric said he was not trying to flex...only hide his shirt.
The other day I changed 6 stinky diapers by 2pm. What are my boys eating!

Memorial Day

We went camping at Kolob Mountain with Rich and Tamara for just one night. We left the babies at grandma's house.

They loved riding in the back of the truck and eating together.

Rich and the kids built a fire.

We FROZE in tents.
We saw some deer.
Jack excited about his new monkey pj's.

Family BBQ

Eric got this BBQ for his birthday from his parents.Today he made sunday dinner.BBQ chicken.Very good.


My little ones are starting to interact more and more. We love it.

Hiking

Today was way fun. I had a mission companion(Michelle Brown)come into town for the weekend with her family. We met up and went hiking at Snow Canyon which was extremely hot but with only one kid was really easy. Eric went to Kolob mountain with his dad and took Jack to go fix fence.....borring. Anyway, after hiking we went back to their condo and just hang out. I did some haircuts then I introduced them to Marv's Diner for lunch (Thank you Clint and Amber) which was super good and we had a good time.

Kyle started solids and he was lovin it.
I think Jack is starting to thin out a little bit.

California Trip

We just took a family trip to the OC. It was loads of fun an loads of work with the kids. Here are a few pics.

Easter and Christy

This is my best friend Christy. We met 17 years ago at a mutual activity when some snotty older girl wanted to "beat me up" do to a mis-understanding and Christy stepped in and showed this girl who was boss. We have been through pretty much about everything-highschool, college, dating, heartaches, missions, family reunions,vacations,jobs,roomates. I seriously dont have a single memory without her in it.She is an amazing, funny, talented person and I am lucky to know her. She visited me last week during my widow days while my accountant husband is tied up till the 15th.We had a blast. Thanks for everything girl.
Jack got really excited to pick up the candy and put it in his basket. The only problem was once he got one piece in his hand he would stop hunting and start opening.

Jack was having an afternoon snack after we got back from the grocery store and he would not let go of his balloon.

Typical Jack Day

We have a field behind our house where somebody keeps their horses. The past few months Jack has been quite obsessed with going and feeding them. When he wakes up in the morning he says..Horsie! When he wakes up from a nap he says..horsie! As soon as Eric gets home from work he says..horsie! At first it was really cute but it has really been driving us crazy. It doesn't matter if its a nice day or not we go and see the horses at least 5 times a day. We usually cut an apple in half and as we are waiting for them to come over he eats part of the apple. When they finally come to the fence Jack willingly shares what is left. If they dont come over he likes to set his apple down and try again later.Also, I have been letting Jack take a book in his crib when I lay him down for his afternoon nap. After he stops talking I go and get the book out and this is usually what I find.
