GIRLS NIGHT OUT

April 6, 2013

Some of the LADIES in our FAMILY get together for GIRLS NIGHT OUT during the PRIESTHOOD SESSION of CONFERENCE. This year we did a little bit of SERVICE for our older brother STEVEN. We snuck into his apartment and CLEANED it really good. It took 4 of us 2 hours to get it good enough to pass inspection! Afterwards we went to DINNER at the BRICK OVEN. We were going to go to Debbie's afterwards to PLAY CARDS but we were POOPED! So we just went home. We had a great time though. Morgan, Jessica and Reese joined us for DINNER. The BRICK OVEN has the best ROOT BEER ever!

WATCH OUT FOR THE LAWNMOWER MAN!

April 6, 2013

Boston got a LAWNMOWER that is really NOISY and sounds like a LAWNMOWER and it BLOWS BUBBLES! He loves it! He uses it to CUT THE GRASS and to VACUUM the living room! Watch out though cuz he thinks its hysterical when he RUNS YOU OVER!

FUTURE PICASSO?

April 5-6, 2013

Boston was so happy that it was nice and SUNNY outside so he could DRAW with his SIDEWALK CHALK! He was so proud of his MASTERPIECE. I may be biased but I think he is very ARTISTIC and one day he might just be the next PICASSO!

The pics above are on Friday and he had so much fun, we had to go out Saturday and do it again!

He loves banana chips (Zach made these using his dehydrator!)

Boston and Zach colored one whole cement square blue! Silly!

ZANDER'S 4TH BIRTHDAY!

April 1, 2013

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ZANDER! He turns 4 YEARS OLD today! He had a FUN DAY! He went to the PARK, CARMINE'S for DINNER, and all he wanted was an IRON MAN or AVENGER CAKE and he wanted it DELIVERED (He saw that on TV), and he wanted a PINK CAKE! (Strawberry). Thera had never made a CAKE before but she wanted to try and she did a great job! It tasted DELISH!

We ate at Carmines. So good! They brought out ice cream for the birthday boy!

Zander made a wish and blew out the candles!

Here is Zander's PINK CAKE on his Avenger plates!

Of course we couldn't get through the weekend without a wrestling match. These boys have no chance with Bill! Lytton and Mason wrestled too and Lytt won!

EASTER DINNER...AGAIN!

March 31, 2013

We CELEBRATED EASTER AGAIN! This time Bill FRIED A TURKEY and Thera and I made the side dishes. It was DELISH! She COLORED EGGS with the kids and then Zach had to leave to go home. He wasn't even able to stay to eat. He had to get home to go to work early in the morning and then to school. I loved that he was able to spend some time with Bill though.

Frying a turkey! If you haven't tried this you must! It comes out so moist!

Zach and his Dad

Mason pulls out the turkey.We all want the skin!

Mason chows down on this turkey leg

Lytton, Mason and Thera ate the gizzard, the neck and the heart...disgusting!

While the turkey was frying Thera and the kids colored eggs.

Bella loves her big sister!

Zander loved playing bucking bronco with Lytton!

HIKING RED ROCK

March/April 2013

We went HIKING RED ROCK. It was HARD for me, but I did it. My kids LOVE HIKING. I do not enjoy it so much but I do it to be with them. This was a very ROCKY HIKE and I have done it before a few years ago and when I was like 30 lbs lighter! I just love being with my FAMILY so much so I will do what they do, and go where they go! Lytton doesn't really like HIKING all that much either. He asked if there was something beautiful waiting at the end of the HIKE. I said no, this is it! Just a bunch of ROCKS. Zach and Ashley of course loves everything OUTDOORS and they love NATURE! They were so happy to just be OUTSIDE with the pretty ROCKS!

A quick pic before we started our hike

I needed some help hiking up and down some of the big rocks..does it look like I am having fun? I am not really! I can't wait for this hike to end!

Zach and Mason at the top of the rock..Lytt was up there too. I just don't see him in this pic!

More hiking....

Zander taking a much needed break. He asked if he could take a nap on this rock!

Zach giving a thumbs up. He loves being out here!

Mason found a rock perfect for resting on.

I loved it when we could stop and rest!

Bella builds a pyramid of rocks during our little break

Although Ashley is pregnant, it doesn't slow her down. She loved being out here hiking

After the hike we ate a packed lunch on the tailgate of our vehicles. We learned that Zach could juggle and then the guys had to have a ROCK THROWING CONTEST. They all did well, and each of them won one contest at one time. We had a great time together today!
