Jack's Starwars party



 Jacks star wars party.  I made a light saber cake and Jack put his star wars figures on top of it.  We played star wars Lego bingo to start out the party while we waited for friends to get here.  Then everyone got to pick out a mask and a light saber.  We fought and played pin the saber on Darth Vader.

 During Christmas Jack saw these Calico critters at a toy store and had been asking for them since.  I found a Melissa and Doug cute doll house and barn on Amazon and bought him some animals and furniture to set up.  He loves them.

I've been wanting to do something in my bedroom for a long time and finally found a bedspread I liked (thanks Lindsey). So I painted my dresser and got cute knobs at Hobby Lobby.  Then spent $40 on wood and did the board and batten behind my bed and got rid of the headboard which freed up lots more space.

And summer fun starts with hiking, slip in slide, and silliness.
 

Easter and Spring finally

 My cute boys in their Sunday best.
 Sometimes we put Jack's hair in a ponytail on top of his head and he looks like a Samoan.

This is my favorite picture.  Kael's cousin Indie squeezing him.

Spring break

For spring break in April we took the boys to Las Vegas and St. George for the week.  We are always so anxious to get out of the cold crummy weather so this was a wonderful change. We brought our bikes and hiked.



We went to the strip one night and walked around with the boys, which was a nightmare.  I hate Las Vegas!  We saw the volcano at the mirage and went to eat.  We went to the Flamingo and saw their animals.  We stayed in a condo just off of the strip and spent most of our time at their beautiful pool and lazy river.
