Park Days

 My kids love the park. Last year my mom took the kids to a splash pad attached to this park; the kids ended up playing at the park more than they played in the water. They've been begging to go back ever since.

 Lola loves the park and is really brave, too brave for mommy's sanity, she climbs all over the place.

 She loves the slides...

 and is brave enough to go down on her own. Little Miss Independent!

 Wyatt of course has a little more flair!

 He does love to climb

Early Easter Fun

 This year Russ had meetings in Salt Lake so we decided to make the trip with him and have some early Easter fun at grandma's!

 Of course we had to dye eggs, which the boys loved. Wyatt really was old enough to do it by himself this year which was great.

 Lola wanted to get on the table and help but while I was taking pictures she had to stay on the floor. You can see she wasn't too happy about it!

 Grandma passing on the vast knowledge of egg dyeing.

 We love you Grandma!

The boys had a great time dyeing eggs and couldn't wait for the egg hunt she'd planned for the next day...

Spring Yard Work

We have some ambitious goals this year for the yard so we decided to start early! With the windy Blanding spring we had a lot of leaves to rake up. Evan and Wyatt took advantage! 

 Russ hard at work! I love this man. When he gets going on a project, he'll see it gets done.

 The kids would have Russ cover them with leaves and then burst out of the pile.

 Where did he go?

 Peek-A-Boo

 This was fun until they climbed out and were a "little" itchy!

Playing with the worms. These boys are always on the hunt for Rollie Pollies and worms. Boys are so great!

Funny Girls

 Lola cracks me up, and no these are not packing peanuts stuffed up her nose. It is just a piece of tape against her lip, when we ripped the tape off the paper part of it came with it coloring the tape green.

Nothing better than making this little girl laugh!

Baby, Baby

 I bought this little vibrating, bouncy chair for Ivy. Lola has gotten more use out of it than her. She likes to sit in it and sing baby, baby, baby.

Poor little Lola had to grow up too fast!

Our Little Climber

 Russ and I got back late from Farmington so I just threw most of the groceries on the floor of our kitchen and only put the perishables away.

Lola decided to take advantage of the mess, the next morning she decided to show us her climbing skills. I was happy for her new accomplishment but also worried she was going to fall so the diaper tower went down after we opted for a couple pics. Lola you always keep us on our toes.

Forts

 Russell and the boys spent a morning putting together this fort in our living room.

 It was a fun idea until lunch or dinner when we had to eat standing up because the boys wouldn't let us take it down.

After dinner they watched a movie and asked if they could sleep in their fort. A little while later this is what we found. Two tired boys who finally had succumb to sleep, I love it!
