CANDY!! Were did they go????

We had a great Easter weekend which we hope that you had also. We went to a an Easter Egg hunt and had really cute kids on Sunday! Enjoy the pictures :-)

Fun Day

Payson wanted to go to the Treehouse Muesuem to celebrate "his big birthday". As usual the kids loved it. Here's some pictures from the fun day.........

This is Payson's favorite place in the Muesum....TRAINS!

Bekah and Lexie having "tea" together. Lexie loved the little kitchen area and kept pulling Bekah to the table to play with her.

Can you find Lexie in the Chess set?

Bekah letting Payson think that he is "King". She's already practicing what us that are wives do everyday!

Payson teaching the girls about the "planets" and Bekah teaching Payson and Lexie their "ABC's" She told them that she goes to school now so she's the "smart" one of them all.

Teach them young!

Lexie so wants to do everything that those around her do. I decided not to hold her back on her dreams (isn't that what moms do?) So I have already put her to work in the kitchen!

Birthday Boy

Believe it or not Payson is 6!! Where has time gone? Thank you to those who sent cards and called. He loved the attention. Here's a few pictures from his special day. Check out his smile....he decided to lose all of his teeth in one month.

Bubbles....

I forget how much fun a dollar store tub of bubbles can be!! The kids played a good hour with them running around and making Lexie laugh!

When dad's away.....

Well Evan is TDY to Florida (yeah his life is SO hard for him) and so I am playing single mom. Now most kids will tell you all the things that they get away with and the things mom slacks off on when dad is gone. This is what I hear:

Payson: When is Dad coming home? You are NO FUN!!
Devin: Dad cooks better then this, can we eat out?
Bekah: You don't tuck me in right. I want dad.
Travis: Dad would know what to do.
Payson: You are NO FUN! I want dad to come home.
Payson: Your boring. When's dad coming home?

So I guess I am offically boring, no fun, and unable to do anything right. I am feeling SO loved and appreciated. Guess I will have to switch Dad places and lay around a hotel for 3 weeks in beautiful florida (my dream!) I am trying to be grateful that they love him and he has such good relationships with them, but my bitterness is getting in the way. :-)

Mom

I had to get a new printer to be able to do all the scanning I have to do for school. Well it is a fabulous machine and prints and scans really well. So I decided that my year project is going to take the pictures that I have of us growing up and scan them so that they are all digital. Yes I am crazy and yes it will take a lot of time, but isn't that what kids are for??



This is the first picture that I scanned and thought I would share. This is a picture of my mom when she was about 3ish (grandma was guessing).
