Having fun finding the perfect places to hide the eggs

Waiting Patiently

Searching for the Eggs

The Results

Coloring Eggs

Even though you can't tell by the look on his face, Gideon was really excited to have cousins come and color eggs with him for Easter!!!

Easter Bunny

The Tuesday before Easter, the Young Women from our ward came to our house and hid some eggs in the yard for our boys to find! I saw this take place while we were in the house grabbing a few things to take outside! I distracted the boys until the Young Women were gone and then asked Gideon to look out the window! He comes running over to the window and says, "I see colored rocks...NO...Colored Eggs...I think the Easter Bunny Is Real Mommy!!!" Then we go running outside and he yells to Daddy who is next door talking to the neighbor, "Dad! Dad! The Easter Bunny is Real! Come look!!!"

Scooter

Gideon was so excited to get a Scooter from his Aunts and Uncle for his Birthday!!! Here are some pictures of him trying it out!!!

Learning how the Scooter works!

I Love Gideon's Face in this one!!!

5 Year Old in the House

Gideon requested a, "Fire Breathing Dragon Cake!" My very creative sister in law, Suzy, helped me come up with this cake! I don't know if you can tell, but we put the candles in the mouth of the dragon for the Fire Breathing part of it!!!

New Playhouse

Ammon inherited a trailer and heavy duty tarp! The boys just love to play in it!!!

Snuggle Bug

Each time I see Malachi sleeping, I just want to snuggle with him!!!

Family Time

Our first Family walk this Spring!!! It has been too cold and wet to go outside much, but between Sessions of Conference at the beginning of the month, we were able to enjoy the sunshine and go for a nice walk together!!!


Another attempt at taking a good family picture!!! Maybe one day we will get a good picture of us all at the same time!!!

Gideon

Gideon is getting so big! I can't believe that he is 5 years old now!!! Here is a fun picture of him talking on the phone! I think it is so fun to see him talking on the phone! He loves calling people! I remember when I was little, I was always playing on the phone, and I still love talking on the phone!!! Another story about the phone, I have been teaching Gideon our phone number so that he is ready to go to Kindergarten!!! He tried and tried, but would still get the numbers mixed up, so I thought that if he actually pressed the numbers on the phone and called me, he would remember the number!!! I took the house phone and taught him my cell number!!! I had him practice and then actually call me!!! His face lit up when my phone started ringing and I answered!!! He now knows how to get ahold of Mommy if need be, and he is working on Daddy's number!!!

Jeremiah Being Very Funny

Jeremiah thinks that he is so funny climbing into Malachi's saucer!!! I think it is hilarious to watch him try to climb out (he usually is stuck and needs help) when he is done playing in there!!!

This is Jeremiah's new favorite outfit! He just loves to have the hood on!!!

He found Ammon's old sunglasses and just loved wearing them all day long!!!
