Aquarium











Trey was pretty nervous about being really close to the sharks. I had a hard time getting him to sit on my lap because they kept swimming overhead. It took awhile to convince him that there was a thick wall of glass between us and all the fish and water. My mom had knee surgery before she left Utah and she was still gimping around when we got to Iowa. We were afraid that we were going to have to get her a wheelchair!




Iowa and the Zoo




I had a little break from babysitting so I decided to zip on over to Iowa for a quick trip. Ok the 14 hour zip turned into about a 20 hour zip because we stopped so many times! Everytime we got going Rylie decided that she had to go to the bathroom. We made it to Amy's in Omaha and spent the night there, and met my mom and Amauri at the zoo the next day. The zoo is one of my favorite places so we always try to make it whenever we go to Iowa. The kids really like it too.


State Tennis







Beau was the one man Duchesne tennis team this year again. This was at State Tennis. He ended up taking 1st beating the kid that had beat him twice during the season. It's been pretty neat to be able to watch him play these past couple of years. The kids liked to go and watch him play, but we're not use to having to be quiet during a sport, so I made sure that I took lots of things for the kids to do. We were working on getting Trey of the binkie, and I ended up having to give in and give it to him during this so that he would be quiet! That was the last time he had it, and I am happy to report that he is now completely off the binkie!



My Closet






I have been begging Jarren to build me a storage closet in our family room, so finally after 2 years, he's finally started it! In his defense though, he's never built anything before so he was pretty nervous about starting it. So he got one of the guys he works with to come over and line things up for him to do it. I'm pretty impressed with how well he's done. We've got it all enclosed in, and just need to rehang the trim and paint the door. We have a few shelves out in, and as soon as he wires it, our freezer will be going in there too! Now I'll be able to do laundry without hitting into it!

So tired


This year we are on the 1-4 church schedule which is right during nap time. So Trey usually will fall asleep on our 1 mile trip home, this time he made it through the door, but not much further! The scattered diapers on the floor are because he had to dig through the diaper bag to get the binkie!

Easter Egg Hunt












My mom told me that about a month after Easter, they were still finding eggs!



Easter
















We spent Easter at my Grandma's house in Duchesne. The kids had a lot of fun coloring the eggs...Jarren did too! The batman shirt is Rylie's favorite!
