Chasing little boys around

My life seems to revolve around this one thing: chasing my two little boys around. And I love it! They sure do keep me busy, but I can't think of anything that I'd rather be doing than spending time with my kids. Jordan got to have some play time with his best buddie: Corbin; we spent part of the day at Wheeler Farms feeding the ducks, checking out the farm animals, and going on the tractor ride.



Jordan's first attempt at using chop-sticks (he'll get the hang of it one of these days!) But he had fun giving it a try.
Last week Jared's mom and dad invited us to join them and the other cousins at Jungle Jims.



We took the kids to see the divers at the Mayan (Jordan and Austin love watching the dive show), and one of the divers came over to see the kids and Jordan thought that was just the coolest thing on earth.


Love these little boys and can't wait for our #3 to be here... 10 weeks to go.

Easter Sunday

The Easter bunny made it to our house this year (we're usually in not home for Easter and so this year was a treat). Sunday morning the kids woke up and got to search for eggs all over the house; went to church and got more candy, and later we had an Easter egg hunt at our house, and of course, more candy. It was a fun day and we had fun celebrating Easter this year. Here's some pictures of my cute little boys, Corbin, and Valerie searching for eggs in the backyard:

Sand Dunes and More...

We had another glimpse of Spring! We were so excited to get out and enjoy some of the warm weather so we took the kids down to the sand dunes for the day; I think the sand dunes is a little boy's heaven on earth. My boys all have one thing in common, they all love the sound of motors, bikes, and dirt.




Jordan wanted to play baseball with dad so here's Jared practicing with Jordan out in the backyard.

We took the kids down to the mall to see the Easter Bunny, ride the carousel, and of course, have some ice-cream to top it off.

Jordan's friend Jackson came over to play and the kids got to show off their art skills. Such cute kids!
Jared went to St. George with his friends: Scott Judd, Jared Carlson, and Travis Stringham for 4 days to ride their dirt bikes, play some golf, and just hang out with the guys. All that fun and this is the one and only picture that he came home with:

Enrichment Night

We had our annual EN Birthday and the theme this year was a Mexican Fiesta. It was a lot of fun, and I got to make some Cafe Rio pork, rice, and dressing... so I now have one of the best recipes around, thanks to someone on our committee. E-mail me if you want a copy, it's delicious!
