Jacksonville Hike

On conference weekend we went out for a hike in Jacksonville between sessions. There were lots of wild flowers to be picked.  This is my favorite time of year. Love the sun and the colors.

Nate and Kids

Most of these were taken by Nate when I was busy studying, doing a photo shoot or running errands.

Blue and Gold banquet with ice-cream.  Dallin learning about what it is like to be handicapped. 

Kids got to dress up for Dr Suess week at school. 

Kids with Nate at Home Depot building clinic.

 Dallin being silly with his puppet. 

 Dallin got pooped on by the neighbors dog when he held it. 

Girls at the mall play area.

 Kids at MOD pizza. 

 Tanner showing us that his hair is long enough for pony tails.

Some of Spring Break

I didn't do a very good job of taking pictures during spring break. We mostly had friends over and played at the park.

 We played kickball one evening at the school.

We toured the Harry and David factory. I only got one picture of the making of Moose Munch. I am a slacker. 

 The girls playing in a tent. 

 Tanner messing with his skate board trying to make it faster. 

We went for a hike in Jacksonville. 

Bouquets for grandma's birthday. Eek! Ashlyn's face is all pink cuz she was standing in front of my bright pink sweat shirt.

Ashlyn

I love having Ashlyn in Mrs. Markiewics class. Cheryl sends me pictures of Ashlyn in class sometimes. So fun!

Ashlyn is learning to read! She is doing so well. 

More Amber

Amber went to the dentist. She always looks forward to it, because she gets coins to get a prize at the end. Luckily none of my kids have had cavities so they don't know that the dentist can be very unpleasant at times.

 Amber being goofy.

A day at Kid Time. Amber feels like an only child most of the day. She and Tanner will probably have the most pictures taken of them since they both get a couple years of being essentially the "only child".

 Amber got sick for a few days. :(

Amber

Amber is like an only child during the day. Since I am done with my physics class I have had a lot of free time. It feels kind of weird actually. We went to the park one day. 

 And to Kid Time for music and movement. 

 And here is a picture her teacher took of her a preschool. 

Lost teeth

Ashlyn lost her two front teeth this week just a couple days a part. The first one she lost when she was eating and probably swallowed that one. 

Tanner

As Tanner has gotten older I haven't taken as many pictures of him. He is always at school, or sports stuff. He is getting so independent. 

So here is a Tanner post. 

They were able to dress up for Dr Suess week at school. Tanner was Thing 4.

Tanner and Joel made this popsicle bridge with no tape or anything. Just sticks.

And here he is finishing the 2K at school.
