April 3,2010

On a VERY cold, 17 degree, Saturday morning we went to the South Ogden Easter Egg hunt. As you can see from the pics there is snow on the ground. The kids hands were so cold by the time we finished that we just in the car and went home for some nice hot coco. Conner didn't cooperate with me to take pics of him because he was SO cold. They were good sports about it though. While other kids all around were crying mine were, I think too cold to cry and they wanted the eggs. Neither one came away with very much, but they were happy to go.

Later that day we decorated eggs between Conference sessions. Kaily was so excited that she got everything out and helped me get the eggs ready and even put newspaper all over the table so we wouldn't mess it up. Conner was very careful as he decorated each egg.

Story time

Clint's mom came to stay with us the last couple days of March and the kids were So excited to see her. We had lots of fun with her while we went shopping, played board games and read stories. The kids love to be read to and Grandma didn't disappoint at all. She was so animated while reading Going on a Bear Hunt that the kids asked her to read it over and over again before bed time.

What little boys are made of

Lately I can't send Conner outside to play without him coming back to me like this.

I love that he loves to play outside and I love that he's SO boy, what I don't like is the muddy sandy mess he leaves in the bathroom when I'm done taking all his clothes off to put him in the tub. Oh well, it's only Spring and Summer is around the corner, I think I have A LOT more of these days ahead of me. Besides, he still looks so dang cute even with the dirt all over him.

April Fool's

I woke up the morning of April 1 to find this. I guess this was Mother Nature's way of playing an April Fools joke.

St Patrick's Day

I love holidays! I love even the ones that seem not so great. I didn't used to be this way, but as Kaily and Conner grow it becomes so much fun to do all the little things with them. For St. Patrick's Day we made cookies and decorated them in Green frosting, made green waffles for breakfast and I dressed the kids in green. Kaily thought it was GREAT! All month long she has wanted to celebrate so we have green things every now and then. That night for their bed time story we read Green Eggs and Ham.
