Easter Morning...


Ella loved looking for eggs and finding her basket, and please excuse the fingerprints on my fire place!!

Parley searched and searched for his basket and finally found it in a little cupboard in our room! He lives for this stuff!

Brig's basket was in the dryer and look how thrilled he was to find it!!
We had a fun easter morning, we have church at 9 so we got started pretty early! after we got everyone ready for church we reminded them of the real reason we celebrate easter and had a family prayer and we were off to church!

coloring eggs...



Coloring eggs is always a fun, messy tradition! Parley was the only one who really loved it this year and that was fine with me because the other 2 were a little too messy! Travis even came home when we had 2 eggs left so we let him in on the fun!!

5 year Well Check...


Parley has been dreading this day for a long time and I just really wanted to get it over with so that he can look forward to kindergarten!!  He was a total CHAMP, they weighed him and measured him first, then took him down the hall to do a vision test, which he passed with flying colors, then he had to pee in a cup, him and brig thought this was so funny. Than the Dr. checked everything even his bottom parts (which Parley was quite hesitant about but only just looked at me with a concerned look) , and said that Parley is doing awesome!! The Dr. drew some shapes on some paper and asked parley to draw them too, after Parley was done he told him how well he did and than looked at me and said you have a perfectionist on your hands, He definitely gets that from his dad!! Than the nurse came in and gave him 3 shots, he didn't cry or wine or fight me at all. he was awesome and I was so proud!! The doctor gave him 3 suckers because he had to get 3 shots and as we were leaving the nurse said to me, that was the most pleasant 5 year old visit I have ever had, she said she usually has to fight the 5 year olds especially with the shots, Way to go P-man!! and in Parley's words, "I totally Rocked It"!!


and Now we have someone who is very excited for KINDERGARTEN!!

Colorado Rockies...

Baseball season has begun!! Parley is loving this year because he is playing real baseball this time, where we have outs and keep score, but he is loving it mostly because all of his best friends are on his team even his cousin! He is doing pretty good, on his first time up to bat he hit it on the first pitch! we still have a lot of practicing to do but it has been fun to watch him learn how to play "real" baseball! He is still as competitive as ever, and i love his facial expressions in some of these pictures. Way to go #12!




























He is so lucky to have his best friends on his team!!




Go Colorado Rockies!!
