OOFITOL!


I'm so excited to bust out the sidewalk chalk again. It is finally getting warm enough to play outside! Jackson has been learning to write his letters and told me he wanted to write a word. He told me to say the letters he was writing (like he was teaching me). After repeating every letter he wrote, he said"now what does that spell?!" I said "OOFITOL" and he said (very enthusiasticly) "Yes that's right!!!!" What a silly kid. Kennedy had lots of fun making pictures, too.

We had an old blue trike that nobody rode anymore so yesterday we bought some pink spray paint and converted it to a princess ride. I had some little vinyl stickers to put on and now Kennedy thinks it is the best bike ever!
The kids have been riding bikes for hours everyday. What a nice break for mommy.

Crazy Boys!

I know this is really old but I just had to post these pictures of our brilliant husbands. My brother, Kyle and his family came to visit a while ago and we decided to go on a hike to some Indian ruins. When we got up there we realized there was still way too much snow for hiking but the boys just couldn't resist. IT WAS PLAYTIME!!!! First to get stuck was Aaron.

We tried to go up a hill and got stuck halfway. Kyle came to the rescue. Then the boys wanted to see if Kyle's truck could make it to the top of the sand hill.

They really are little boys at heart. Fun times! Kyle started goofing off and well as you can see he was really stuck.

Ryan hopped in Aaron's truck to pull him out and then got it stuck too. Two down, one more to go. Ryan's truck was the only one still moving and somehow we managed to get all three trucks home (several hours later.) What an exciting day for a hike!!!

New Family Pictures

It was quite a challenge to get Jackson to smile but we managed to get some. I give credit to our awesome photographer! Michelle, you're the best!
