Easter Sunday







I had to dress the boys in Spring colors for Easter. It's the only time they will let me do it. I love having these captured moments of my boys. I am so proud of them. I think we did pretty good seeing as how we had to balance the camera on the couch to snap a shot.

Easter weekend







I know that I am way overdue, but things move a lot slower when you're carrying around a big pregnant belly! We had great fun with our Easter egg hunt with Ball cousins. My mother-in-law thought of the greatest idea to wait until dark and do it with flashlights. What a party! It was a fun-filled day starting with a pancake breakfast at Grandma's, then egg dying, and playing the rest of the afternoon until dark.






Cousins at the Park
















We met at the park to celebrate some birthdays. Our clan is getting a little large to always meet at someone's house. Plus, it doesn't help that all of that clan that I am referring to is full of seven, energized, imaginative boys. Michael keeps telling me that our little girl (to arrive in about 5 weeks!!!) doesn't stand a chance with all these boys. In my mind I find comfort in knowing she will have seven older cousins here to intimidate whomever comes her way.

Beautiful Boy




I caught Dillon today trying to wake up. The big boys had come home and you could tell he wanted to wake up but instead he only made it to this position. I love the folded arms and flushed cheeks.


Boys and tools





The boys love to use Steven's tools and take things apart. These were just a few of the "Men at Work". It was good entertainment for an hour or so, but I'm starting to notice that whatever gets taken apart never gets put back together...hhmmm

Wii Fun with Grandma Ball



Dillon wanted so badly to teach Grandma how to play the guitar on the Wii. Sadly enough they both need to practice. The audience booed them off the stage. (I don't play this because I am so terrible no matter how much I practice)

Car Show
















We took the boys to the car show in Salt Lake. Steve is a car fanatic and the boys are following suit. Each of us picked out our favorite. Mine was the Land Rover, Braxton's the corvette, Dillon the police car that looked like Baricade the transformer, Brandon the mustang convertable, and Steve's the farrari. I think that should do us just fine! We had a great time looking at the shiny new cars and hanging out as a family. We took the boys to Boondocks afterwards and then ended the day looking a boat dealers. Now that we sold our boat we know how much we want another one. Someday. It was one wishful weekend.
