Easter

Easter Pictures
They didn't go in order and I don't feel like changing them now. So you get out of order. The kids dressed up all beautiful for Easter. Gavin 7, Brody 5, Paris almost 3.

 We decided to give them gifts for Easter. Wanted to start collecting a few good movies for the trip to Utah in the summer. So they each got a movie. Wreck it Ralph, Hotel Transylvania, and Scooby-Doo.
 The hoping bunnies and chicks were a favorite.
 We did egg coloring. We did 5 dz and Grandma was going to be there soon. I figured they would have lots to still do by time she came. Well they finished in like 5 min so Grandma didn't get to help do any.


 Paris was so funny. She tried to find the egg once she got to the yolk and said she found it. Then she asked "where is the bird?"
 Kids had fun finding Easter Eggs in the back yard.

 Brody had to do a report in Preschool on a State. Even though Kaleb moved from Washington we pretended he didn't and stole some his pictures off the blog. Then he had to take it to school and talk about it. He has such a fun preschool. Then we got packages and postcards from different states. He liked that best because Grammy and Aunt Bean sent fun stuff.
 More Easter pictures.






 Egg hunt at Grandma and Grandpa's. Sweet story about Brody. During the Egg hunt he asked Grandma if she found any eggs yet. She said she hadn't and then Brody said "Here you can have one of mine" He is always thinking of others. Love that sweet boy.

March Madness

Brody learned a new painting technique of using a paint brush to put dots on his painting.

 Brody's Chinese New Years @ Preschool
 While Chris and I were having fun for our anniversary in Vegas seeing Circus De Soleil show and the Illusionist. Grandma and Grandpa had fun with the kids. They got to take them to Gavin's scout Pinewood Derby. Gavin's car didn't win; however, Brody and Paris went home and they had finally raced the siblings cars and Brody's took 2nd place in that race.
 Gavin with his participation award.
 Gavin in 2nd against the siblings.
 This is one of Paris best friends Lexi. Her grandma lives next door so when she come to visit once or twice a week they get to play together.
 They share all of Lexi's toys. Bikes, strollers, etc.
 Lexi wanted to try riding Paris bike.
 We had 2 weeks for spring break. And we did lots and keep the kids very busy. If we didn't do anything we at least went to a park usually with a friend.

 We did lots of swimming in those 2 weeks.



 We went with Amy and cousins to Jump Street. The kids loved with the bounce houses and trampoline area.
 Trying to get Lincoln to go up.
 Playing with Anika.

 Paris was a little scared going down the big slide, but didn't stop her from going again.
 They had a bigger area for the older kids. So I hardly ever even saw Gavin who was off with his cousins. So I never even got any pictures of him.
 The night before going to the Zoo with my Webelos scouts the boys got ready to go before they went to bed. Including shoes. They got up way earlier than needed and ate breakfast at least an hour before Paris and I even got up.


 They had lots of fun.
 All their favorite parts were the stingrays and gift shop. Brody refused to touch the stingrays. He said he would only watch.
Paris is my music girl. She loves to listen to music and sing. This is her listening to music with earphones.  

 Brody had to do the silliest Dr Seuss photo contest so we decided his silly place was in the hot tub. We also did Eli in the picture because they go to preschool together. I was a little scared they were going to drop the books in the water, but we were successful.

 Gavin and Dad went to scout day camp with Mike, Keagan, and Kyler. He had a great time. He said his favorite was doing the BB Guns, but I think he enjoyed everything.
